Explainer
- Fantasy: Ninja
- Best attributes: Deadly Strike, Faster Cast Rate
- Gameplay: Assassin throws knives, target suffers Blade Shield stacks (Thrown knives orbit around target)
- Cannot be cast on self: Will be cast on throw hit
- Damage gains weapon quantity: Quantity: 147/300 = +147 Damage. Small flat damage in early game
- Replenishes main weapon quantity: Sustains throw rate
- Knife class weapon also seen as a claw class weapon: Assassin can dual wield Knives and still benefit from Claw passives
- Seen as a single knife: Creates 1 Virtual Claw with cumulated properties. Speed is instead averaged to keep builds balanced
- +2 enemies pierced: More chance to hit multiple enemies
- +4 knives thrown in a fan: More chance to hit multiple enemies
- +1 stack of Blade Shield: Enemies hit stack Blade Shield on them. Them and nearby enemies will suffer (AoE, multiplicative)
- Warshrike + Deathbit + Guillaume’s Face + Gore Rider: +50% +40% +15% +15% = +120% Deadly Strike
- +1 to Blade Shield for every percent of Deadly Strike: +120% Deadly Strike = +120 to Blade Shield
- +1% Faster Cast Rate for every active stack of Blade Shield: Blade Shield deals its damage faster
- Assassin Only: Do not impact the Sorceress Throw build
- Build: 1) Blade Shield 2) Blade Fury / Sentinel (Synergy) 3) Burst of Speed (IAS), 4) Fade (Resist All), 5) Claw Mastery (Attack Rating), 6) Weapon Block
