assassins seem weakened a lot then 1.20.4 version

do you guys think so?

 

Oh boy here we go.

Assassin is "weaker" (as some may claim) because no vanish abuse. In 1.20, coming out of Vanish gave assassins an 80% damage buff. Right now Shadestepper is really the only class that gets access to that damage buff, and I believe it's even higher than 80% (or at least the only archetype that can make proper use of it).

Assassin is not weak, but it requires skill to use effectively (unlike 1.20 Assassin). Shadestepper requires you to invest into high strength and dexterity, but if you do that, you have the capability to one shot bosses (although in most cases this is unlikely). Trickster is not supposed to be a damage dealer, it is a support archetype, so naturally it should deal lower than others. Lure and Clones can make up for this damage loss. Acrobat is spell spam so you're supposed to cast spells frequently which quickly add up.

 

Assassin has been nerfed slightly, however it is still completely playable and amazing as always!
Trickster is way better than expected tbh. :D
