Attacks

Strategy
Remember that whenever you see one Undead Assassin, more are waiting nearby. They'll emerge from alcoves or houses and surround you, hitting you from behind while you try and take down the most obvious one. They aren't too effective in a straight fight, however, and if you can get them all in front of you, you can easily get in a couple good whacks on an individual without giving the group a chance to attack you.
Although they do have a ranged throwing knife attack, it's easy to outmaneuver them and hit them with Soul Arrow or ranged weapons if you can put some distance between you. Firebombs also work to quickly take them out.
