My fear is that they change how it works though, like they did with Thief, which became a DPS class.


To my knowledge, the most recent (admittedly months-old) version is that not all subclasses may be present. But I think Assassin is going to make it in.

I do wonder about the features though. Surprised status seems to be random or finicky(?) and obviously they're not going to leave Infiltration Expertise and Impostor (on the off-chance we get to 13th level) as they are. Could make it or break it, which I care about since it's the archetype I usually play. :P

I'm curious how they handle multiclassing because with multiclassing you can create such broken builds it's stupid like warlock and sorcerer multi-class so you don't have to ever sleep (long rest) and you can stack forever sorcerer spells which only pisses of DM and bans it lol
