or
Disabling the evade sheild leaves you out of sneak and the opponent remains fully mobile so can il you or escape before you have any chance to re-sneak or indeed do anything else.....even supposing you get away he would have to be completely insane to just wait for you to return in the tiny window you have to do one more attack. Asking someone to wait for that attack still doesnt help, the most visibly damaging attack will not kill the opponent and his shield will automatically have reset by then; worse the sucess rate of landing the all important spy attack is disturbingly low i managed about a 50% chance of landing the attack and managed to, at best, take 25% of my opponents life before I was beaten to the point of very necessary retreat.
As for MKT the landing rate was appalling and the range so short that for pvp you are far too vulnerable. Again a lone target is about the only thing you can realistically think of attacking... and you do so at a very evident disadvantage.
I would be delighted to hear from other testers on the assassin and mkt tree but pvp wise this is completely redundant atm and I'm not even sure what to suggest its all too weak, the damage levels, the accuracy buffs, the way it drives you out of sneak disbaling any hope of true stealth attacks and the disable evade surely one done has to stay disabled? Against an opponent with a brain I would have to rate its chance of sucess as nil
noticed this to
the new assassin tree... your right if they have a sheild up you can disable it and get beat the **bleep** down for your trouble, the all important first strike even with an enemy with no sheild is pathetic, even if it lands
its like everyone has detection shades and lvl 50 perception the amount of failed sneak attacks that fail now
mkt again another issue you point out, the range is weak

been testing mkt too. (also note that i am brand new to the tree and using a full mkt and partial assassin build)
ya, sneak seems better. boo to pvp with mkt. i agree with tat about the range: you have to get so close to a person that they would have to be afk and alone to go undetected.
also, every time i tried suplex it didn't break anyones shield; you may need to tweak that up a bit. also Inner strength cost for each knife is really high. most are 30, some 40, some 20. since knives are our best and frankly only weapons, i found myself completely out of IS and having to hyperjump out before being able to kill anyone.
tried against the 48 mobs in creston, me vs two. had no trouble killin one, but left with zero IS to face the second.
so, yeah. i agree with the op, mkt is pretty useless (for vector) at the moment.,

If the timer's taking too long for spies to be effective, it's something we can balance.
