Assassin Abilities and Perks in Ghost of Tsushima: Legends DLC are special unique skills that only has this class. Rather than fighting as Jin Sakai, Legends has players choosing one of four unique classes. While each class is equipped with the basics, they also have differing sets of abilities and a unique skill tree.
Classes can be unlocked after you play the game a little bit. The first class you can unlock is only when your player level reaches Rank 8. This is where you can select the first Class of your choice and equip. Once you reach Rank 8, the next process simply requires you to go to the character menu, choose the class you want to unlock, and select it on your character.
The next Class that you can unlock will only be accessible once your player level reaches Rank 15. This basically means that the more you play and progress in Ghost of Tsushima: Legends, the more classes you will get to unlock.
Ghost of Tsushima Assassin Abilities and Perks
If you prefer doing massive damage with a single attack, you’ll love the Assassin. The Shadow Strike ultimate attack will allow you to teleport across the battlefield and directly strike your enemies.
While all classes can sneak up and dispatch enemies, the Assassin thrives here. The name of the game is big single target damage that can be dished out without being seen. The Assassin isn’t a complete lone wolf, however. The class can be built to accommodate better team synergy, as well as multi-target elimination.
