Assassin stuff questions
Hello community,
I have a few questions for the assassin class. I have not played for some time, so this class is new to me and even though I tried, I did not manage to find the answers I am looking for. Just for the record, I realize all classes are meant to be balanced and I believe they are balanced in some way. But there are some things I have not seen explained and it's bugging me ^-^
As a former only scout player, for the first look, assassin seems to be the better option to play now. Please explain to me why I am wrong, coz I know I am since balance is a thing, but I just can't see it.
They both have same armor/constitution stuff, the same evade %, but the assassin has 2 weapons. So, where is the catch?
1. Having two weapons means he can have an additional slot for a gem, so he has better bonuses, so he is stronger, right?
2. Having two weapons means he can deal more damage than scout, right?
3. I saw people mentioning: "it is more difficult to find 2 good weapons and since scouts need only one, they are better" And I am like, where is the logic? Two weapons should deal more damage. Even if only one is very good and the other one is worse, the damage output should be higher, right?
4. In the new update, I saw that assassins are now even going to repel the fireballs of the new class, that is a nice buff actually, so that means, he was so weak he needed an actual buff? What is so weak about him? I cannot seem to find it ^-^.
5. What is his actual damage output compared to scout's? Two weapons + bonus gem slot should mean, assassin's is higher but is it true?
EDIT: 6. When assassin crits, does it crit with both attacks?
I looked through the forum before writing this post but didn't find the full answers, that's why I am asking.
PS.: I would like to remind that I realize that assassin is not OP, as I mentioned before, I just wanna know why, since my brain is telling me he should be.
