Let me start off by saying I have leveled my assassin to level 50 and have top of the line PvP gear and orange gear. The road to 50 is not easy due to the lack of dps. My best advice is to keep you and your compainion with the best gear possible. Turn off your compainion's AOE attacks and kill stuff one at a time. I leveled full deception, and discovered on the way to 50 our dps is sub-par. As soon as I reached level 50 I change to the tank spec. It is the only viable spec to stay alive in PvP long enough to take 1/4 of the health off a level 19 sorc. 8) This class is severly broken and can not be as BW had foreseen. I will stay with my assassin because you know they will get buffed up at some point. Good Luck!

I have 1 bag in the bank and have 1000 tokens each. So, do I open the bag and buy 5 more bags before the patch?

I will be a new level 50 just before the patch or just after the patch. It depends on how hard I grind for 2 more levels the next two days. Should I grind to 50 and buy 6 bags right away and hope for different gear? Or Wait till after the patch and get 6 bags of tokens and see what I can buy?

I feel screwed in the worset way. I am full points and purchased one bag at level 48 and I should hit 50 just after the patch unless I grind two levels in two days. The weapon is like 72 tokens? So, I open my first 6 bags after the patch and i have 24 tokens, which is not even enough for one piece of armor? Some people opened very few bags and got most of their gear very fast. I just hope Biogrind reduces the cost of PvP gear.
