Notes
Assassins are tough mobs. Protect yourself against Stop and Petrify, and Silence too if it affects you. Don't worry about Sleep because Assassins usually max out their melee hits, jarring you awake usually within a round. A Jewel Ring is helpful because it protects against both Petrify and DM. !DM is valuable because the only way to rid yourself of Addle is to wait it out, so you can either flee and wait or run to and inn, sleep, and run back. Reflecting yourself is helpful, because it negates Mini and also causes Assassins to Demi themselves, which is hugely helpful. Setting Item as your command ability allows you to heal through both Silence and Reflect, so it's a good idea here. Don't bother disarming them because their melee does very little damage as is. There's also no way to protect against Last Breath, so just wait until you're revived and continue fighting. On the plus side, Assassins have very poor defenses, and although they're immune to all statuses, they can be Demi'd quite effectively. Start off with Gravity based attacks and finish them off with hard hitting normal attacks.
