Replace Magic items with Honorifics.

I mean srsly. What do you need magic items for except for act 1 hatred? You only need Magic items in order to make honorifics. You may as well replace them completely. From act 2 hatred on your equipment consist of rares uniques and RW's anyway.
That also makes it less gold-consuming in early game and thus you don't need the rune-->throwing weapon "feature" in order to gain gold fast just to get 1 honorific. You'd only need 15 k Gold to get some ress early, which is what anyone can get by act 2 by simply picking up items and selling them.

Another option would be to remove Honorifics and add "double MO bonus" to all magic items.

Several complications with what you just said can be explained by someone else.

It's interesting that there's not a single Assassin in the top 100 softcore ladder. Does that mean that class is in need of some love with the latest patch?

I think it's just that untwinked sin is quite a bit harder and more expensive to play in most people's eyes than the popular sorc paladin or necro builds

edit:additionally a lot of sin builds rely on max block which kind of necessitates farming 500 sigs to be truly optimal which most people cant be bothered with right at the start of a ladder.

T6 glaive + Ligeia = quite possibly the best dcow leveler in the game if minimal effort is taken into account.

Dunno why I never thought of using a glaive. Always concerned myself with striking proc knives. Good idea.

It doesn't necissarily mean anything.
The char order on the list changes: When you kill stuff you are moving up, when you die a lot you move to the bottom of the list. Therefore, an alternate explanation might just be: "People don't lvl assas up beyond 120/121", for whatever reason, and "Assas die a lot", for whatever reason. Although... I can't say to have encountered any enthusiastic assa players, it's usually the opposite. :(

Add "Stuff" and "Things". It will make it better.
