[Hellstrom]

Hellstrom might take issue with the "Assassins suck" idea. Apparently, Rogues-turned-Assassins (arguably the most common type of Assassin) aren't as good as Monks-turned-Assassins. Too bad the Monk-Assassins can't poison their awesome fists...right, Hellstrom? ;)

*looks around in confusion* Does anyone know what Wids' is talking about? The Assassin's Guild is just a myth!

The assassin is a rather useless class ...The 6 second cooldown sounds like a good idea anyway because I have fought SD's and corner sneakers.. which is why I got into the habit of maxing out my detection skills on all my characters if possible and carrying TS items on me if I was able to use them.

I don't disagree. The assassin class does kinda suck. The good news here on Thay ( http://thaypw.org/showthread.php?tid=32&...rue+seeing ) is that TS has been modified so that it doesn't allow automatic spotting of sneaking characters, especially Monk/SDs who completely rock.
