This is my take on the "Nerf Assassin Buff Assassin" issue.

Assassin has a higher skill cap compared to the other classes, and it's tougher to do good with. But if you're good at it, you can be devastating. It's powerful and exploits elemental weaknesses a ton with many rapid hits instead of single hits. People think that assasin is UP now just becaude before you could wak up to anything a OHKO it. Now, this doesn't mean it has it's issues, and I have two suggestions.

1. Nerf Smoke Bomb slightly and Buff Multihit slightly. Multihit has lost a lot of it's usage and smoke bomb feels like the best assassin spell, which isn't right. A melee classes best spell is range? What? So why not take some of the power from smoke bomb, and put it into multihit, a MELEE move?

2. Lower mana drain in Vanish. The mana drain in vanish is more than before Gavel, AND the mana lost from sprinting doesn't get negated like before, it STACKS! Meaning, vanish has nearly no use. If assassin doesn't get a movement spell, make the spells it does have useful! Plus, @Selvut283's assassin DOES HAVE MANA REGEN IN VANISH. (It's not anything to do with them being a mod) I think it eould be a lot better if mana regen IDs worked in Vanish OR the drain was just reduced, because it's absurd right now.

Kraby also came up with another way to fix this:

That's my take on the assassin issue, from a view of someone who barely plays assassin! Hooray!

I feel like perhaps the vanish could be better, for example having mana drain a little slower while in vanish.
