Idea Assassin Rework

With the teleporting back before 3 seconds have passed after teleporting thing, couldn't the assassin teleport up to the flag, get it, then teleport back easily within 3 seconds? This could be a potential flaw in your rework.

 

That... that's your flaw? What the heck are you on.

Do you not realize that this Assassin has SHEARS as it's knifes? SHEARS!!! This is supposed to be an Assassin, not Bart the Hedge Trimmer for cripes sake! And you see no flaws in that? You see no flaws in the fact that every time Assassin wants to get a kill it has to THROW a pair of freaking HEDGE CLIPPERS at an enemy?!

And hey while were at it, why don't we give Assassin a friggin lawnmower because why the hell not? Just do it! Replace Assassin's sword with a lawnmower. You already gave it some HEDGE CLIPPERS so why not just complete the package eh? We'll call it the Farmer Bob class. It's like f*ckin, guddamned, friggin Bob the Builder except you CLIP HEDGES and MOW THE LAWN instead! Oh boy! I can just imagine the FUN to be had with that!

It's like two classes in one! Bob the builder, Assassin, who gives a sh*t? It's the same thing right? Same thing! Totally!

YEAH. Sometimes I just wanna scream,

"OBI! OBI!!! WHAT THE HELL IS THIS SH*T OBI?!?!?!?!? SHEARS ARE NOT KNIVES BRO"

ANYWAY I guess it's time to go down to Home Depot and stock up cause we've got one HELL of sh*tstorm a brewin' boys! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Screw this I'm out

 

. . . Obi I think he wants you to change it from shears to something like an arrow. I'm not sure though, just going off of a hunch.

I like the whole increase in damage thing. Rewards you for doing good w pvp while you're still able to do lots of damage.

One thing I forgot to mention in my previous post: I think your version should have some steak. Not a lot, but maybe like 2. Without the instakill and speed 3 sugars, your assassin will find it a lot more difficult getting around without dying quickly.

 

pearl, eye of ender, wahtever

Also, based on what @SlicingKunai said above, I don't think the teleporter should be usable with the flag in tow, otherwise we'd get another form of ninja capping

Anyway, I like the new changes. Like what Brandino said ^, it can still potentially die pretty quickly, so either a couple steaks or a slightly increased blood-lust would be nice (not that I know what's good for assassin lol I don't even play it on free days)

 

... yeah but I just thought that this point was valid too... ._.

 

Any rework of assassin is better than the current assassin imo, and this is a very nice rework, but there's one thing about this I don't like. I don't like how the assassin can teleport.
The teleporting just seems like a petty idea to make up for it's speed being reduced. It also makes this assassin seem like a weaker ninja. Maybe just have sugar that when right clicked it gives you speed III or IV that regenerates over time, like the current assassin? But other than that I like this rework.

 

What if you made it so the only thing that changed with assassin is the Sword damage progression, and maybe gave it chainmail leggings to increase survivalbility? I'd be ok with that.

 

100% agree with the true damage.
It wouldn't surprise me at all if they do the same to assassin and archer (in replacement to the instakills), so RIP.

 

I do not believe you listed the life steal in your original post, so unless I missed it in a reply later on. . . Even with the life steal though, it might not be enough to get a kill to actually be able to life steal.

 

o. well fk dat, its crap!!!1!!1!juan!!!!1!!

 

I didn't feel like reading all of the previous comments except for a few so I just want to voice my opinion.

As a person who hardly plays CTF now I think this is actually a good rework. There are a few numbers to tweak but I like the concept is great in my opinion. Only if the mods actually listened to us before they did their own ****ty rework (but after the new CTF updates I think our opinions are being heard) I think this could be a descent class change. (I have nothing against the mods js spare me c: )

@wintergreen3 @NomNuggetNom @Nohox @TheZombieKat @OtherCTFMods

 

So... why not just make assassin like pyro? Two hits then blockable instakill. Everything else stays the same. Simple.

 

Still leaves a third of it up to ping. I... honestly can't argue against it with any other reason, but why not have some gud features if you're gonna rework assassin, eh?

 

I'm a bit late to party but hey, better late then never, right?
I didn't read all of the replies to this, just a few. Personally, I really like this idea. The life steal is a really cool idea, and the crippling effect from the knife is a nice touch. About the teleportation: When you teleport, it could be in order to attack someone. Will there be anything in place to prevent people from repeatedly just running away from someone when they attack them?

I don't know about the other mods, but I read most of the things in Server Ideas. I don't always comment on them, just when I get tagged or if it's a topic or idea that I have an opinion/comment about.

 

I think he meant the assassin running away. Which is another point I forgot to address . It would be nice to not have people running away after being attacked. That's even worse than noob elves, lol. (not that wind element is overpowered in running away, especially in nerfed state)

 

The Assassin attacking someone, hitting them once or twice, then using the teleport away.
