I haven't fully unlocked it yet and like I have seen the damage but I have never felt the reduced ability accuracy when I see youtube fights with them on.
How game changing have you felt it on max rank?

also how good is despair on max rank? does it give a big PI push?

    From what i have seen for various nodes and combos despair mastery has more usage for heal block but assassin also very good at max rank...though u might need despair more for certain stuff if u don't have right counter

    I would say get assassin to rank 3 because it's not worth to 5/5 (there isn't much of a difference).
    Also I would recommend maxing despair(Doesn't give much PI I think but very useful in some situations).

    Despair should be your priority.

    I have max despair, deep wounds and assasins. As I built those over time I prioritized getting deep wounds maxed because I had a good number of bleed champs, then started building up despair and assasins.

    To the specific OP question, yes, I thinks assasins is essential for late / end-game content if you don't run suicides. The health pools get into the millions and having a 60% attack boost + defensive AAR is huge.

    Despair is great if you want to melt regen champs with someone like Void or Torch. And who doesn't want to do that?

    RE: Assassin

    If you’re fighting enemies with large health pools then I do think having it maxed is a big help. It gives a 60% increase in attack at 5/5 when enemies are below 18% health

    It depends on what you value on your champs. I rather have Willpower, MD, Deep Wounds, Dispair and Glass Cannon than Assassin (I still run it 1/5 tho).

    If you want the best (non suicide) build and have bleeders and mystics I can give you mine.

    If you wonder why 6 points in greater vita (first we need to spend 5 points somewhere to get to Willpower and second it counters a bit of the hp lost from Glass Cannon)

    Can also go physical resist or stand your ground

    If you want Petrify or Pacify is whatever you like more ofc.
