Since I can't find any english translation guide for Assassin Cross skill tree, here's my little guide since I just changed to SinX.
**CREDITS TO: TheSeven for the remaining skills below**
Heart of Assassination ( passive skill )
Damage increased by 3% when crit is triggered.
- Goes up 3% every level.
- I would suggest maxing this out instead of Katar Mastery since you'll mostly hit Critical all the time.
Assassination Aura ( active skill, requires lvl 5 Heart of Assassination to unlock )
Enhance Crit to 2, for 30 seconds
Skill Delay: 1 sec
SP consumption: 24
- Goes up 2 Crit every level, max 20
- Note that since your equipment is a Katar, it doubles the crit. Max is 20 so technically, total critical buff is 40.
Skill: Slash
The next damage you deal will be doubled. Buff lasts for 10 seconds or until you make your next attack.
Skill: Advanced Hide
Hide effect still active after 3 seconds of performing an action during hide.
Not sure how it improves per skill level.
Skill: Enchant Deadly Poison
Increases your atk by 3% for a few seconds. (3% increase per level) DOES NOT NEED POISON BOTTLE
Mine is at Lv 8 and increases by 24% for 20 seconds. next level is at 27% and probably 30% at Max.
Skill: Soul Breaker
Deals damage based on ATK*150% + INT *25 + random...
Skill: Meteor Assault
Aoe Attack that causes Bleeding to targets.
* For me, I would recommend maxing this two skills first (heart of assassination and assassination aura) as it maximizes your critical damage speciality to high def monsters since crit ignores defense.
* As my stats, I'm currently set at 65 str/60 agi/40 luk
* If you see SinX hitting 2k Critical Damage in Orc Map, they probably max this two skills with around 60+ STR and good equipments, elemental food converters and str food buff, but as of now, my skill tree is set to lvl7 Assassination Aura, lvl10 Heart of Assassination and lvl1 AKM
As for equipments, it depends on your stats if you want more str, go with str gears. For agi, to with more flee+
Mine is currently
Head: Sakkat
Mouth: SinX mouth piece (gives 5% demi-human dmg)
Weapon: Orc Katar (HP Steal activated at 25% hp/+800hp) - I mostly hunt/afk solo
Sheild: +5 crit /+5flee (Morroc craft)
Armor: +25 flee / 3% aspd (Morroc craft)
Garmet: +15 flee (got from Payon crack)
Boots: +3 sp Regen / %5 mvspd (so I can use Assasination Aura often, might change to payon boots though)
Ring: x2 Rosary +6 luck (3luck each)
But mostly, this might be the recommended equipment:
3 Set bonus gears (cat's blessing/payon boots/+15 flee garmet from Payon crack)
- once 3 sets are completed, it will give additional 5 str and %5 aspd
- Upgraded flower ring x2 for additional STR
- Headgear, Cat's berret
**TIP: if you go broke and you have enhancement on your equipments (the ones that you can enchance through your inventory)
- you can have those reimburse/get your money back by going to prontera steam NPC beside the blacksmith and click the 1st option for 1k, you'll get your zenny back! I enchance my weapon around 72 and it gave back my money around 600k!
- Also, you need to remove this enchancement before selling your gears at the auction, cause once you sell it w/o removing the enchancement, you can't get your money back and it goes back to 0 when you retrieve it.
- So if you're broke, reimburse those enchance gears to get your money back!
Skill: Slash
The next damage you deal will be doubled. Buff lasts for 10 seconds or until you make your next attack.
Skill: Advanced Hide
Hide effect still active after 3 seconds of performing an action during hide.
Not sure how it improves per skill level.
Skill: Enchant Deadly Poison
Increases your atk by X% for a few seconds. DOES NOT NEED POISON BOTTLE
Mine is at Lv 8 and increases by 24% for 20 seconds. next level is at 27% and probably 30% at Max.
Skill: Soul Breaker

Skill: Meteor Assault
Aoe Attack that causes Bleeding to targets.
Any other suggestions or additional information for the other skills is greatly appreciated.
