[quote=vin30603cent]i thought they have really low hp and def?
but then again, last time i played a shad was pre bb...[/quote]

Shads have moderate hp but extremely high defense due to meso guard and shield mastery.

They do have a relatively low hp and def, but meso guard makes up for that (oh yea another con would be meso consumption of MG, but seeing that you have 1b, it wont be much of a problem, it doesn't consume that much) MG blocks 60% of the damage and works against 1/1's
You also have 45% dodge from shadow shifter and a decent amount of %avoid (forgot that exact amount)
There's also smokescreen and iframes from BStep and MC
If you're making a UA, you have vampire, which is a drain skill

@Xx4DexDitxX: Hyper skills are a set of skills that you start to get at 140, they use different SP than the regular skills. There are 3 types of hyper skills, stat enhancing passives, skill enhancing passives and active attack/buffs. These skills are unlocked as you level from 140 to 200 and you gain SP for these skills as you level too.

[quote=TaylorSwiftSuck]1) Look for %Luk. Get a DKhanjar.
2) No. I think Shadower's Instinct is the hardest to find.
3) Luk% + Loveless
4)
Pros :
-Balanced damage with defense
-Potential to be in top 10 DPM Chart
-Hyper Skills makes them powerful

Cons :
-Hard to fund
-Rare
-Not much of a party member[/quote]
hey im back from quitting since last summer, id like to know what are hyper skills?

Their HP is decent, shield mastery gives them good defense and m. def, 60% damage reduced from meso guard, and some really nice avoid on top of that.

Pro's: It's fun, and you only need around 30 - 40k range to hit cap dmg with assassinate. Also, Shad's will be equal to or stronger than DB's after the Unlimited patch.
Con's: Weaker than DB's as of now, and not much high % dmg skills except for Bstab and Assassinate, but they're slow.
