Assassin BG2

Assassin is a BG2 class in BioWare's cRPG of 2000, Baldur's Gate 2. If we mainly want to backstab, the Kensai Thief is better.

The poison damage just isn't that effective in BG2, like the DoV is in BG1. On the other hand, Tuigan BG2 can be laced with poison. Nice.

The best weapon for assassins is Celestial Fury BG2 or Tuigan.

This is a killer trained in discreet and efficient murder, relying on anonymity and surprise to perform his task.

May coat his weapon in poison once per day per 4 levels. The next hit with that weapon will inject the poison into the target, dealing out 1 damage per second for 24 seconds (3 damage for the first 6 seconds). A saving throw vs. poison limits damage to 12 total.
Bonus +1 to hit and +1 damage
Backstab reaches x7 instead of x5
