Put just enough points into DEX to equip your gear. Everything else into LUK.

Assassin Skills

Claw Mastery

Passive

Passive that increases Claw Mastery, Attack Power, and has a chance to refund throwing stars when used.

It’s important to note that Lucky Seven ignores the weapon mastery bonus gained from this skill. This skill provides more consistency in hitting hit count thresholds than Critical Throw early on because of the added attack power. Max either first or second.

Attack Power

Max Claw Mastery gives 20 Atk Power, which adds this much damage to every Lucky Seven throw (before monster defense):

Added Dmg = 1.4 × Weapon Atk × 2050

= 0.56 × Weapon Atk per throw

= 1.12 × Weapon Atk for both throws

Weapon Mastery

Mastery = (0.1 + Claw Mastery Level10) × 0.7

Recommended Lv: MAX

Critical Throw

Passive

Passive that increases Critical Rate and Critical Damage.

The amount of crit rate and crit dmg gained from this skill is not enough to impact training early into 2nd job. You only really start to notice it when you're higher level fighting mobs that take 3+ hits to defeat.

Critical Recovery

Passive

Recovers HP% and MP% after a critical hit. 30 sec cooldown.

Filler skill to dump points into at the end of 2nd job. The 30 second cooldown really limits the value this skill provides. You can put 1 point into it early to unlock the regen, but the value you get is so small that it doesn’t really matter.

Claw Booster

Buff

Buff that increases weapon attack speed by 2.

Insane value at level 1 because you get the full attack speed and its duration is 100 sec. Increasing the skill level only increases the duration of the buff.

Haste

Buff

Buff that increases movement speed and jump.

Incredibly important party buff that allows your party members to be more consistent when clearing larger areas in a map. Because of this, it directly impacts your party’s exp rate. I recommend maxing this first if you’re the only sin in your group. If you have 2 sins, you can have one max Haste and the other max Claw Mastery and Critical Throw first.

Drain

Active

Throws 1 star with the chance to recover a portion of the damage as HP.

When maxed, Drain only has a 12% chance to leech HP, making it inconsistent for healing. The damage falls behind Lucky Seven due to the lower skill damage and weapon mult. While this skill has a higher damage floor than Lucky Seven due to it being affected by Weapon Mastery, it loses out on average damage and max damage harder. This skill in its current state is not worth maxing.

Stats Indepth

LUK Scaling

LUK’s impact to damage can be calculated as

MIN = Skill Mult × Weapon Atk × 80 + LUK × Weapon Mult × Mastery + DEX + STR100

MAX = Skill Mult × Weapon Atk × 100 + LUK × Weapon Mult + DEX + STR100

Mastery comes from Claw Mastery (see the Weapon Mastery formula in the skills above). It’s 0.07 with no points in it.

LUK is affected by Weapon Multiplier and Weapon Mastery, so every point of mastery raises your damage floor and tightens your damage range. DEX and STR aren’t, and add the same to both ends of the range.

Weapon Multiplier

Weapon	Shoot
Claw	x2.5 (100%)

Accuracy

Accuracy decides whether your attacks hit. It's one stat used for both physical and magic attacks.

Accuracy from your stats can be calculated as

Common = DEX × 1.2 + Level × 2 + LUK × 0.6

Acc = Common4 + 15

Every stat here is your total, including equipment and buffs

Each attack compares your Accuracy against the monster's Avoid. Monsters that are a higher level than you need a lot more Accuracy to hit reliably, while being a higher level than the monster gives no extra bonus. Level is part of the formula too, so your Accuracy goes up a little every level even without adding stats.

Avoid

Avoid decides how often monster attacks miss you.

Avoid from your stats can be calculated as

Avoid = trunc(LUK3) + trunc(DEX6) + 5

Every stat here is your total, including equipment and buffs

LUK gives twice as much Avoid as DEX. Avoid doesn't help at all until it reaches a baseline for the monster attacking you. For example, Zombie Mushrooms require 52 Avoid before you have any chance of dodging them.
