Assassins?

[Infiltrator]

Seems like a really decent hit and run/pseudo ranged unit, especially when coupled with movement imparing spells. I'm playing mage on normal and I still haven't found a place to recruit them so I was just looking for impressions forum posters might have regarding this unit.

There should be a supply of them when you first reach Verona. In one of the shops where you start off. My general impression of the Assassin is that they seem good at first (especially their special teleport attack) but they are too weak to use as a tank and I tended to lose too many of them as they were a melee unit. Others may have found more of a use for them, but I think Royal Snakes are a better unit overall.

Thanks for the info. I am highly reliant on Royal Snakes myself, but I never use them to tank things. Was planning on using the Assassins in the same way. Are there any items that they benefit from?

Not much of a buffer to be honest. I just focus on debuffing or nuking (mage).
