    So in my opinion, and I think there are quite a few people that share this opinion, assassin is in a pretty bad state right now.

    My main issue with it is that you often get one shotted by classes (ninja, mage, chemist, buffs in general) when you are 8-10 hearts. I think assassin could get a slight armor buff to prevent this from happening, because I do not think assassin is intended to get oneshoted when it is at 10 hearts and did not use the assassination. I suggest replacing the golden boots by diamond boots which will slightly increase is armor from 0.5 to 1.5.

    A class that can take out an entire defence in 2 seconds doesn't need a buff.

    Some points:
    Assassin is a 3 shot to mage form full health.
    Means it's 2-3 to heavy
    2 to ninja
    2 to chemist
    3 to other assassin
    Assassin DOES need an armor buff. But it also needs a nerf to it's assassination in conjunction with that.

    Assassin really doesn't need a buff. It should be able to be taken out easily, especially since it can take out targets with such ease. I haven't experienced being one shot as assassin, yet.

    Yes, and if you're being attacked use the speed boost. Chemists have a very small range with their sword/potions.
    I'd say assassins biggest worry would be archer with a good long range shot.

    Who agrees?

    I think assassin could use a sustain buff, but it would have to come with a power tweak as well.

    Assassin does not need a buff. It needs a COMPLETE rework.

    Assassin does need a buff its not supposed to get oneshot when its not using redstone.

    The whole point of assassin is that you're supposed to be sneaky. Perhaps if its assassination is nerfed then a buff like this would be alright, but not right now.

    Because you didn't see it coming?
    Most of the people I see complain about assassin are the ones that can't see that they're coming right for you.

    It is still not supposed to get oneshot when not using redstone. And what I suggest is only giving him a higher boots tier it's not like the class will be beyond broken after that.

    It's not much of a big change, it does make assassin less vulnerable, and I do also think assassin gets killed too easily, +1

    Right now, its too good when its assassinating people and too bad when it isn't. That's definitely not a good thing, but I'd rather have it like this than it not having much of a weakness.

    Also, I hardly ever get oneshot from people (unless if I have 4-5 hearts) unless I use my redstone.

    It's a pretty good idea.
    I think not much people would notice it when fighting them, and the assassin can finally get away easier when attacked if he doesn't use redstone.

    Assassin needs full diamond armor, 5 steaks, a bow with a stack of arrows, wall climbing sword, healing sword, four assassinates. 5 health pots, three strength pots and it also needs 10 speed boosts. This is just imo
