Assassins are made of a special type of flesh with negative weight, allowing them to move (and dodge) extremely fast. They also explode gratuitously on death, spraying huge quantities of blood everywhere that is sure to coat and rust your equipment. As such, it is strongly recommended that you take out assassins at range whenever possible.

The assassin is a quick, frustrating enemy found quite early into the game.

Assassins have a very strange anatomy, their limbs actually being of negative weight. This, however, allows them to dodge pretty much all of your attacks and also move extremely fast. They also explode in a gratuitous spray of gore on death, coating your equipment in blood and likely rusting it. As such, it might be clever to take out assassins at range whenever possible, should you have the means to attack from afar.

Trivia

  • While an assassin corpse will weigh around 3g after death, this is mostly due to the negative weight of their limbs. It is actually possible to pick up the limbs cut off in combat and use them as a temporary Sol Stone, until they rot away. This is an acknowledged bug as it can lead to degenerate behaviour of trying to cut off as many assassin's limbs as possible before his inevitable death, to gain more negative weight from these body parts.
