Deception indeed do need some makeover but apart from that i'm doing pretty good with my assassin and really enjoying it, as some other players said only because you dont know how to play with 1 class it doesnt make it suck i disagree with that, if you want an easly bursting - dpsing etc etc class you should play as bounty hunter - agent or sorc, thoose classes are not complex to play compare to assassin, assassin DO need understanding over abilties and talents in order to do good over WZs or operations.
