    First of all,
    Assassin needs a rework, so I made one myself :wink:

    Inventory
    Slot 1-9
    1. Stone Sword (sharpness 1 renamed to "Assassin Sword"
    2. Shears (Renamed to "Dagger"
    3. Music Disc 11 (Renamed to "Assassination)
    4. Nothing
    5. Nothing
    6. Nothing
    7. Nothing
    8. Compass
    9. Nether Star

    Armor
    Nothing
    Nothing
    Nothing
    Golden Boots
    [​IMG]

    Abilities
    Assassin Sword, the sword does 6.25 dmg. There is nothing special to it.
    Shears, the shears have something to do with the Assassination, when you use the Assassination the shears do an total of 2 hearts per hit (true damage).
    Assassination, the assassination is locked until 3 kills, you can stack up to 1 assassination, it doesn't need to be a killstreak they count up when you die. If you use your assassination you need to switch to your shears for more damage! You can get oneshotted when you use your assassination, the assassination wears off after 5 seconds.

    Why would assassin need a nerf? you block your sword and then hit the assassin and he dies, and a mage like me will just zap him away!

    Assassin was fine in my opinion with 2 redstone and 3 sugar, which would give such a weak class a second chance...

    Assassin doesn't need a rework, simply because it's the only instakill that is blockable.
    I agree with Assassin being on the list of future reworks, but definitely not now.

    Assassin needs a rework that neither needs or buffs it and removes the instakill and the instadeath entirely.

    I think the instadeath is good because it can't rampage everywhere :/

    I think that assassin is good as it is, at least it isn't the insta kill anymore. :smile:

    This rework doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Why would you redesign Assassin so that it is a lot harder to actually be able to use your Assassinate (a class with almost no armor and a semi weak sword is going to have a hard time even getting 2 kills in CTF) and then make it much much harder to actually Assassinate someone? That doesn't sound very fun =/

    Assassin, while annoying sometimes, is fine as it is.
    If you die to it because you didn't see it coming, f5 next time.
    Personally if I die too many times to an assassin, I just go ninja and target assassins for a short while.
    EDIT: Thanks for giving me free ratings for 75% of posts I make, mr. Cube

    The Assassin Sword is fine.
    Shears are useless
    killstreaks with that gear are harder than you think.

    What is Assassin all about?

    In my experience, assassins are made to take out HVTs (High Value Targets) They do the job quick then get out quick. This is how to take out dwarf defences relavity quick. If assassin was nerfed, you would be seeing dwarfs and pyros everywhere because there wouldn't be a competitor. Now that i mention it, if assassin got a nerf like this, pyro would have to as well, if you start think about it, pyro has more killing capabilities than assassin so that wouldn't solve your problems for Insta-killing tactics.

    Overall this Rework will rework it into oblivion. It just doesn't make any since, since EVERY Class has some sort of fast killing capability.

    This thread suddenly made me think...

    Assassin is basically a meaningless class. 90% of the time it's used to target a flagcarrier or a dwarf. Assassin is kind of a brutal ninja with some fancy shoes. I think that this class too needs an entire rework.

    Assassin was made because people were too lazy to use Ninja to kill people. That and Medic was an INSTA-HEAL.

    Insta-heal =/= Insta-kill
