How to play as an assassin?

If I'm supposed to run and pick out a target, bring him down and teleport back, how do I do that in solo w/ henchmen play?

The only attack when I attack, so I have to charge first. If I bow pull and stay back when I pick out my target, everyone focus fires on that one ignoring our healers.

I just don't see how I can sneak in and deal damage and get out. Unless its go attack something, kill it, and manually run back to where the casters are and that doesn't work at all.

I believe it's hold shift+ctrl on your target and press space. then your heroes will go in on their own.

If you do a call to attack a target,your henchmen will attack that target. You can focus on another foe during that time. No need to rush first too

Yeah sins shine when playing with other human characters. It takes 7 of them to take 1 guy down, in the meanwhile you've taken 3 guys down. Henchies would concentrate on your target, ergo bad!

Wait for the party to attack. The moment the combat lines have been established (pretty much everyone is staying in a general area that they're fighting in), teleport and attack.

That's pretty much the easiest way to keep from dying, but make sure that you also have a way out...
