A question to those who bought Factions at its release

Made mine during the preview event,died 2000+ time for me to learn how to play it. get prot. tile of all 3 chapter, done all none- repeatable quest in Faction, doing AB, CRing Palace, farm FoW and mercenary in Napui Quarter to get people master. wearing 15k Luxon with Ungue of Forgotten. she is now solo farm several bosses in Cantha but no luck on drop

Never started an Assassin.

I created an assassin and deleted it. Later I retried and levelled her to lvl 20 but still it didn't seem right.

Funny enough with the last skill changes, suddenly it clicked and now it works for me. She is level 20, has ancient armour, Ungues of the Forgotten and perfect steel daggers and finished Cantha and Elona. She is currently at the last mission in Tyria...

I must say it is good to be in a PvE guild that doesn't refuse to play with you because you're an assassin...that helps a lot. She has an interrupt/spike build that works very well.

Had my Sin since the preview event. Dont play her much, though.

Never had a character wich was that hard to get through a campaign. Still have him, he finished Tyria+Cantha and now is my storage char.

my hubby made an assasin, I made the rit ......we finished factions together....and then his sin sat, and sat and sat some more......makes a preettty good mule....well nf came out...we made a dervish and a paragon.....his dervish is now playing with my first character my ele....my paragon is a semi-mule.....
months have past since nf came out.....the sin....well decided to go and run around tyria....we got it to ammoon....and now the sin spends time killing spiders in the jungle on my hubbys off times when I am not around.

I created my sin during the preview event also, got him to Arborstone, and couldn't get a group for a month because of all the sin hating going on at the time. Eventually decided to delete him, of course he would be coming up on a birthday here soon so it kind of sucks I deleted him but I don't regret it because the monk I made in his place is funner to play and can always find a group.

my sin is just a character i paly for some fun pve and something different and has been since day one. really got into it like 2 weeks ago. finally got to eternal grove lol. i should finish factions with my sin in about a year or so if i keep going at this rate.

I made my assassin on day one of Factions' release and played her through the entirety of the campaign. I got her 15k Kurzick armor and the Protector of Cantha title, then took her back through some of the Tyrian missions. Right now she's slowly working her way through Nightfall, along with a couple of my other characters.

All the assassin hate going around after Factions' release was kind of discouraging, but when I did manage to get into a group I was usually complimented on how well I managed to play and stay alive. I always hope that maybe, just maybe I've managed to change some minds about assassins being useless in PvE. I find them to be such a fun class when used properly that it's a shame they're neglected so much.

Assassin is one of only two classes I've really cared to PvP with (the other being monk), and I still enjoy coming up with new builds for both PvE and PvP. Usually they're somewhat unorthodox and half the fun comes from testing and tweaking them until they're as good as I can get them.

Started an assassin on the first day... He got deleted at around Gyala Hatchery.

I'm on my 7th 'sin now... going strong, Ancient armour, more daggers than I know what to do with, and just hauling his ass through Factions to get Moebius Strike.

Whenever I need to blow off some steam, I'll take him to the frontline and slaughter some kurzick wammos. Good stuff. (Well... echo-MS eles and MMs are fun to pick on too...)

Assassin is my favorite class. I still use him from time to time especially when I need to green farm. Assassin for me is the most versatile green farmer. I bought him 15k Luxon Armor and planning to get him a new armor may be in Chapter 4 since IMO nightfall assassin armor looks stupid

My assassin is my main character. I created her the first day factions came out and got her 15k kurzick armor. I've currently finished getting all 3 protectors titles and all 3 grandmaster cartographer titles for her and still working on the rest. Assassins FTW

I had factions from release and my personal perspective of Assassins from the word go was "useless".

Obviously everyone made either an Sins or a Rit. The Rits were impressive and served a purpose. But Sins simple died every 2 seconds in a quest or mission.

Im still yet to see a human player, play an effective Sin in PvE. Obviously some will exist and Im sure their great players. But the Sin is a hard one to master. Most players seem to think they can tank as a Sin and run head-first into agro and simply die.

I also tried the Sin in the beta test of Factions. I hated the way the skills worked. Having to use select skills in order of one another. I didnt find it fun.

I guess my perspective of Sins was tainted.

My assassin has survived since the Factions beta/preview weekend and is going around in 15k Cathan Armour with numerous maxed gold daggers.

He completed Factions and is now just entering Vabbi in Nightfall.

I like playing him and have a build that seems to work for most occassions, but i have to admit he is not one of my primary characters. I tend to use him once i have completed the chapter with my others first.

Despite people saying assassins sucked and didnt want them, etc, etc, i always found him to be pretty effective and good fun and didnt really die a lot. It's all about knowing how to play them. I think my best moment was being last one standing on Unwaking Waters and getting the others back up (and then being given some candy canes by one of the players, just in case i did get any DP).

I wasn't too impressed with the Assassin. Mine got deleted within about 2 weeks. I've never really had much love for melee classes, though.

I got factions on release date and made an assasin, who until this day still remain as an on-off char. I finished Factions with him, die 87 times mostly from try to worked out how not to be a tank with him. These days I mainly use him for solo Tomb farming & HA.

If played right assasin will and can be a superb class, well if the first combo hit that is.

My sin is alive and kicking. She is probably one of the most played character of all my 7 pve chars.
I got protector of Cantha with her...with a help of a lot random people, also due to the fact that my sin is quite a survivor. She'll be leaving for elona soon, try to learn the way of dervish maybe.

I love my sin, the fact that you always have to be viligent cause sins can die easily makes it more fun for me. And since i use my anti-melee build...i like annoy warriors in ra and ab.

Made my sin on the first day factions came out. A lot of henching ended up making me ditch my assassin for quite a while. Starting to use him now, especially since getting him Stygian Daggers .

My Sin finished Factions recently, is the only one of my 9 characters to possess an end of game weapon and farms Jarin Plains (as an A/R Crit Barrager) whenever there's an event on.

He's easily the coolest character I have.

same as a lot of people, made an assassin on day of release then promptly deleted her a couple of weeks later (along with around 20k ). however i made another about a month ago and am enjoying playing him.
