Assassin Qol Knowledge

Hi,

I am about to start my 5th character as an Assassin because it is my favorite.
I have a few questions:

- Do you really get bonus damage while vanished?
- Is there any reason to use Multihit over Spin Attack? They both have a CC effect but I heard spins are more efffective
- When Smoke Bomb upgrades to 3 eggs, do they each have the damage of pre-upgrade single egg or is the damage split in 3?
- Is there a particularly useful weapon I should pick up on the journey? (Mage --> Sage, Archer --> Plague, Warrior --> Tower / Ignition, Dodegar's)

Thanks

 

1. Slight % boost I think, meaning more useful at lower levels. Not worth worrying about imo.
2. Spell cost decay mainly. A common endgame cycle is Smoke-Spin-Spin-Multihit-Spin, since you can have Smoke bomb going and cast Spin Attack while Multihit is active too.
3. The upgrade basically constitutes increased range of the AoE.
4. Plague, Tower, and Ignition are not particularly notable, and Sage is primarily an xp bonus weapon, although it has decent damage too. The most important Assassin weapon is Hashr Claw (level 39), which is viable for at least 20 levels. I recommend two Tier 4 thunder powders on it.
