📋 About This Mod
Assassin looks quite underwhelmed when compare to Thief. That's why I create this mod.
This mod is originally created to support my another mod Shadow Ninja - a complete rework of Monk (Way of the Shadow) to create a Shadow Monk/Assassin multiclass (I used 20 level mod though).
Things are not completely tested, reports and comments are welcome~
As some of you required, I have move the change of level 3 passive to level 4 to compatible better with other Rogues Mod (e.g. Stronger Rogue)
Assassinate: Ambush is returned to its original features, while a new passive Assassinate: Opportunity is added.
Progression
Level 4
- NEW! Assassinate: Opportunity: Reduced number to Crit by 5 if target is Stunned, by 3 if target is Dazed, Blinded or Prone, by 1 if target is Bleeding or Poisoned.
- NEW! Lightning Reflexes: Increase Reaction Point by 1 each turn.
Level 5
- NEW! Assassin Tools: Black Powder (Toggle Passive):
If you has Advantage while attacking, you may apply Blinded to your target. Cannot be used with other Assassin Tools.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community backing with 268 endorsements and over 32k downloads
- Directly addresses Assassin's late-game viability with post-round buffs
- Lightweight rework that doesn't overhaul the class, keeping the core feel intact
⚠️ Cons
- No custom skill icons, so new abilities may look out of place
- Last updated in 2023, so compatibility with the latest game version is uncertain
For Darkest Dungeon players who main the Assassin and want a bit more punch after the first round without a full overhaul. If you're looking for new icons or a complete class rework, this isn't it—it's a focused buff mod.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Since this mod adds passives and skills, check your skill bar after installing to see the new abilities.
- If you're using other class mods, load order might matter—place this one after any that modify the same class.
- The mod doesn't include custom icons, so don't be surprised if new skills use placeholder art.
