Stealth classes are just about always the most popular class. They do high dmg, have the whole ninja theme going for em ( I mean who doesnt want to be a ninja), Stealth is just cool, and being able to stealth lets people pick and choose there fights i.e. picking fights where they know they will win (this is key as ive noticed in many video games that people think that if they die in game they die in real life >< ) along with that it helps to strengthen the weaks internet eepon

Generally assassins tend to be the first choice, on average.

I'm actually quite surprised on how fairly even class choices are on aionsource. Sometimes you see a few classes with drastically less number of players, but not so here.

I don't see assassins as first choice, healers, warriors and mages seem pretty average as well. Cause ppl like magic, healing power and brute force.

I'll be playing assassin no matter what other people are doing I like the class, mainly cause I can be a bit of a loner at times and assassin classes are normaly good for solo play, also I like being the singel target DPS.
My first alt is always a support class too (normaly damage and defence buffs if it's avalible).

[Chaos_Theory]

If there is a lot of assassins when the game launches expect most of them to be Narutards and Altaïrtards.

[DemonXaphan]

This will be true and only a few will be making a name for themselves on their respective servers.

Who brought this up from it's death?

In any case, this is an issue though for those who role assassin if majority of assassin players are idiots. Finding a group would be nigh impossible, since not only will people reject assassins in general if they're viewed as tards, but assassins will also have to compete against all the other DPS classes for spots. This could be a fairly annoying problem for assassins when partying is necessary.

How about pretty numbers?

[Killer 842]

I think its going to be at the Start then people r going to find out they dont like it

Surely there will be an overly abundant amount of Assassins. I'm thinking they should change the Assassin's name to something less appealing to the typical noob, newcomer.
