Assassin Hate... Why?

2 MELEE CLASSES?

oh by the way, warriors =! tanks. tanks = bad warriors. good warriors = damage.

its the same with; suicide sins = bad players, no damage; good sins = damage

calling warriors tanks already shows that you have no idea about the class, especially that you called them tanks in PVP TOO! 1. I said 2 melee classes competing against eachother, i didnt say there were only 2 melee classes.

2. I call all warriors tanks and I know its wrong and its a bad habbit but I find it easyer to call warriors that way because warrior is 2 letters longer than tank

3. Ask yourselves these 3 questions:
Who are assassins? What do they do? How do they do it?

I put my answer all in one sentence: Murderers who kill quickly and efficiently.

Now ask yourselves the same question about a warrior.

They are heavily armoured soldiers who duel their targets. (Who most of the time in real life are warriors too.)

But how do they do it? Now im not a professional on warriors but I think in every movie you see, there is a warrior who fights another warrior for about five minutes.

Just realising now this has gone a little bit off the topic .

What im trying to prove is: Assassins sacrifice armour for reduced killing time.
Warriors sacrifice their killing time for armour - its a choice.

As am I. I just want to kill the wamo noob who says a sin wont kill me and I do. I like this guy

Warriors can spike.
Sins can spike better, faster, and harder. GG.

Sins CAN cause heavy edenial. (damn, -1 energy regen from wither HAX!)

They can spread conditions like malaria in africa. GG. (Fevered dreams?)

They can tank. (Flashing blades, Crit defenses, Vital Boon mystic regen anyone?)

They can attack at range (not pure sin, but kay. Crit Barrage)

Now STFU about sins that suck. How come that BoA/SP is the current Meta? It's GG Leetsauce. Kthx.

Edit: Anyone to bring up that they all use skills from a different profession, STFU. Warriors use mending too. I like this guy too xD

SPBoA ftl, APBoA ftw. Well actually, unless your playing at FA, AB, JQ, APBoA fails pretty badly compared to SPBoA (Amazing isn't it, for once SPBoA is the lesser of 2 evils), Because, APBoA normals uses AP, Shadow step, 4 skill combo, BoA, res. Which is ok, but very weak against blocking, where as SPBoA uses SP, Expose defences, BoA, combo, res. SPBoA has more room for that other hex or selfheal where as APBoA does not (unless it's AB in which you replace res sig)

Edit: Anyone to bring up that they all use skills from a different profession, STFU. Warriors use mending too. Sins do more than just spike...the problem is that whatever build you give them drastically limits their capabilities, whereas a warrior can still be rather useful if you need to improvise.

If we're talking about pvp (gvg in particular, I don't count arenas or HA as anything really worth a comparison) then condition spam won't do nearly enough against purge signets and extinguish.

Sins can't tank, you don't get the luxury of having the perfect math translate into the perfect real data, you get people who still hit through the evades multiple times, armor-ignoring spells, and just high-damage spells in general. The Warrior has the armor to take the hits (barring armor-ignoring spells, which screw everyone over) and the high damage spells, making it a more appealing tank. You also don't have to perfectly tailor its every aspect to damage absorbtion, whereas you have to do so with the assassin.

Sins aren't ranged fighters, the crit barrager isn't nearly as effective as a barrage ranger (aoe bleed isn't as good as 16 marks, not relying on crit, and being able to use +damage enchantments like conjure flame along with mark of rodgort, which will do aoe burn), they are best at a quick kill.

The BoA/SP sin is currently the meta due to the lack of skill on the part of monks and rangers. The monks aren't removing Expose Defenses/SP soon enough or using a blocking skill, and the rangers are often not skilled enough to interrupt the combo. Again though, you'll find most of these flaws outside of gvg. BoA doesn't have condition removal, that's far from leetsauce.

Using skills from a different profession is actually a good thing, the problem is in the way that the sin has to rely on them. To use the crit barrager as an example, the assassin *must* take the ranger secondary profession, whereas the ranger is free to take a multitiude of different secondaries that allow them to maximize dps output.

Most good warriors don't use mending.

SPBoA has more room for that other hex or selfheal where as APBoA does not (unless it's AB in which you replace res sig) Thats just my personal preference xD I use a very different build in PvP, I don't touch the A/W profession as I know ill get a monk on the other side putting guardian on every enemy soon as the battle starts. The build I currently use is a different kind of AP spiker, and it tends to kill... pretty much anything Even got an earth tank with it the other day!

I can see sins getting crafty in the future. using skills like tiger stance, beserkers, tigers fury, flurry, flail, lightning reflexes, ect... Until then im gonna go laugh at sins. This is another example of a person that I HATE , just because BoA got nerfed doesnt mean that all assassin builds suck.

Not every pvp sin used/uses BoA, there are other pvp assassin builds and most people just look at sins like they all use BoA!

But on the other hand some of you might think this is a compliment.

Two days ago in ra my whole team left because they found out i wasn't BoA as we were on 4 consecutives -_-. That is just god damn ridiculous!!!

ROFLMBO, thats daft, If you happen to get in a RA team without monk a pure burst sin isn't the best option anyways. Just go play TA and bury RA, it's retarded to begin with.

NOONE is meant to 1v1. 1v1 is the most retarded form of combat in the game. If you know what the other person if going to be using and have time to prepare before battle, whats the point? GW is all about being able to face any kind of foe that comes at you, not fighting in 1 on 1 duels. I agree. For some reason the officers of my guild think that winning at 1 vs 1 makes them uber l33t. Wow, using a warrior to beat down my poor necro in a 1 vs 1, what an accomplishment.
