how is the assassin in pvp

At the moment Im enjoying it.

 

Im only lvl35 but so far its good in my opinion. Im generally in the top half of WZs and gain around 5-8 medals per WZ.

 

World pvp, what little Ive been able to seek out, I manage to kill most Repubs 1on1. I like it.

 

Once I get spike I reckon I might be able to develop a "stunlock" type strategy that will give me the advantage in most fights, as long as I get 1st strike. (And face it, with stealth, if I dont get 1st strike I dont deserve to win the fight).

In full BM Stalker gear,

 

Deception - decent burst damage but more on the squishy side. Sentinels, Marauders, Operatives and Gunslingers may tear you up though.

 

Darkness (Tank) - (tank spec with DPS Stalker gear and Focus) good damage and pressure, very good longevity, lots of CC breakers, use a focus not a shield generator.

 

Madness - have not tried yet

how is the assassin in pvp i would like to know i am thinking of rolling one

 

Assassin is one of the easier classes, but like any class, it will only be as good as you are. I recommend that you use the search function before asking a question that everyone asks.

 

A Darkness Assassin is your best bet if you want survivability and ok burst damage. It's also about the gear. Don't expect to last too long if you enter a warzone with dated (with respect to your level) or no (not having relics/implants) gear. You'll be surprised how many bads enter a level 50 warzone with no gear.
