After several months of development and consideration for Conquer Online's upside, we, as the CO team, are determined and  ready to unveil a new eastern legend – the Oriental Assassin. Said to once be a part of the empire’s secret guards, the best assassins are sent out to hunt down the empire’s most-wanted and most feared. Unlike all the other assassins you find in other MMOs, the Oriental Assassin is very unique as a long-range class, attacking their enemies from a distance with stealth and their deadly throwing knives.

The Oriental Assassin: How many secrets the veil holds?

Different from the current 7 classes (Warrior, Ninja, Trojan, Archer, Monk, Taoist and Pirate) in CO, Assassins have a unique combat style and transformation ability. When throwing knives are equipped, Archers will become the prolific Assassins and then they can launch a fast and deadly attack on a target from a distance, killing them before they even know what happened.

Throwing Knives: An Assassin’s Deadly Companion

We have announced that the Oriental Assassin will be joining the battle in January, yet some information about their skills has already been put to public. The new addition will bring four brand new skills, as well as a special XP skill, which will maximize the advantage of the Assassin’s long-range attack, making them a powerful force, especially in PvP battles. Stay tuned to the detailed information and trailers on this new class, sure you will find them on the official CO Homepage, soon!

As always, feel free to comment with your questions, I'll try my best to answer them all.
