| | | That's a very open-ended question mate. DnD doesn't really have "this will beat that" in a general sense. It does have some powers countered specifically by others, but it really depends on your character build.
Can you give us any more information regarding these assassins? Or what outline the GM has given you for character creation?
Cheers,
TGHO

| | | A barbarian or rogue of equal level will cancel the assassins sneak attack making them not much better then a weak fighter. |

| | | As long as the psionic doesn't walk into a the field of an Assassin, the psionic should hold it's own easily. That's the trick with assassin's, though. they excel when they choose when and where to fight. They are very much a class dependant on first strike capabilities, but fall in most straight up combats against combat classes. |

| | | Too many unkowns to really say somehting useful. Just know that there isn't "the assassin", just "a assassin" they are all different.
