Referring to PvP primarily.

But in regards to elite stunning totally agree with you that it just doesn't seem to work above 10%.

As for regular mobs I farmed only lvl 21-23's because I had to get my full set of 22 revenge ready. It works more on those than even level PvP for me. I find that Chanters/Asassasins/Clerics resist the most, and Sorcerers the least.


Priests seem to resist half the time, while no other class that I fought ever resisted a 5pt stack. Pretty sure stuns are based on Magical Resist too, so not sure if Boost Attack Resistance is applying to stuns as well or not (AA states knockback, rotation (like whirlwind slash), and stumble (maybe stumble is supposed to be stun? Not sure). That's the only explanation I can think of.
I want a full row of red bubbles. Vote my rep down. Seriously. Thx <3

The type of attack that you evade dictates whether or not your Counterattack will go off or not. It has to be a physical based attack.

Counterattack's tooltip is rather misleading, seeing how it says "upon successful evasion", and Focused Evasion effectively negates any attack regardless of if it's a magic attack, or physical attack.

If someone casts a spell on you while Focused Evasion is up, or a skill that is not physically based, you will evade it but it won't trigger your Counter.

Heh that theory would be absolutely correct.

You also get a skill that's dedicated to solely evading spells and it is called Contract of Evasion.

You should definitely pick and choose the right moments to use each skill that's for sure.

If you're fighting a sorcerer and they haven't used their root yet, it would be a smart choice to burn Focused Evasion first, rather than Contract of Evasion to eat the root. Reason being that if they have any skill at all they won't cast again until your Contract of Evasion had worn off, in essence wasting the 2nd charge.

I definitely advise reading through this list at least once, as well as checking out the FAQ.

Is there a way to get my combo/engravings up to 3 at lvls 13-15? I can't seem to get more than 1 engraving stacked at a time and my stun rarely goes off because of it. Am I possibly doing it wrong or is it just too early to get more than 1 engraving up at this lvl?

You can only apply 1 pattern per skill use. It's not a random chance of 1-3, it's always 1.

Until you get to level 16 you'll have problems stacking patterns.

At 20 you'll be able to get to 4 within 12 seconds. (beast+pattern+chain+beast).

Pattern engraving overall is a pain til later on.

Best Assassin thread to date. Thanks to everyone who has posed information here including F8L, Steb, Shose & others. I realize there was some banter especially between Steb & F8l, however I actually liked it this way as we now have the correct and verified information.

I cant wait to stick my dagger in your back! coming soon to an Aion server near you.

In the aion aerial video i see that a sorceress is casting the spell to knock the target in the air, do Assassins have a skill that knocks into the air cause i was watching a vid on youtube of an assassins tourny and they were knocking into the air without sorceress.

The Assassin ability is called Heaven's Edge....and it's listed in the opening post. It's an aerial bind just like the Sorcerer skill you were referring to.

It helps if you read the open post before asking questions :dazed:.

A video of it is even posted.

Just as good as the other FAQ, you are the best =D. Assuming you know what you're saying (seems beyond right) I will be pro at Assassin before launch :P.
