Hey guys, so I'm currently a lvl 51 app hunter going Assassin, and I'm finding it really hard to lvl/grind due to my poor survivability my current stats are
INT:72 Agi:31 CRT:60 rest are 1 Im planning on maxing INT for now I've tried, d.warriors, porges and coatls and none of them seem to be working for me
Thanks for the help in advance

then my advice u should try to make a hl set gear to increase your survival: -bunny ear +hp+11/17/20% -Iron armor upgraded+hp+11/17/20% -S. bangle
i believe it's not too much to make one(except u want hp+17/20% xtall inside ur gears) if u just input hp+11% , woot, u'll at least have around 6-7k additional hp for ur survival, farm rev L with party, and store it for urself. u will get exp, rev L and friends. ^_^

Assassin backstab is built as CRT/INT/DEX-STR but since you have AGI I believe you are auto attack build using throw weapon.
Your AGI isn't where it is supposed to be. It should be your main priority at lower levels as it is awesome at that levels. Generally, I build my AGI toons via pure AGI first, once you become comfortable with survival through evasion (typically around 100+) you start to move to other stats. This also builds your ASPD so you kill faster, hence, level faster.
Pump your AGI if you want to survive. Having HP gear alone won't help much. You will end up spending more pots and still keep dying.

i believe you are using throwing knife based on that stat. if not, find a way to get that which is cheap & use it. i can say its still very useful even till level 170+.

Well, you could check the Assasins build from tips and tricks from this forum and I think it was Flarius who suggested the viability of some AGI for a backstab build. However, I still think it is best to have an AGI/CRT toon to get it to a mature level fast and then reset (or have some AGI for a half auto and half backstab build)
Assassin backstab can be a tough build as you don't get backstab until 140 so building a pure backstabber from scratch will have almost no skill to use (except for maybe poison, but that is just tedious) and no survivability. Also, even if you get backstab at 140, you really won't be that efficient yet.
If this is your first toon and don't plan to reset in the future, then I really won't recommend you to make one, unless you know what you are doing. Choose another class maybe.

I just checked out Flarius's advice and it says around 120 agi, what I'm thinking of doing is to pump agi/crt and be a nail user until my agi is 120, then start pumping INT for a backstab build, does that sound like a good idea? Sorry for all the questions btw

Well, yeah, you can do that.
You might want to keep in mind that most throw weapons have +30 crit rate, so when you pair it with schwartz (+10 crit rate) and your base rate of 5, you get 45 crit rate total with your 1 CRT stat. This means you can opt not to invest heavy on CRT and start building INT early.

I currently have 50 crt as assasin and can say I have no problem what so ever pulling a crt atk. Its over 50% crt rate without crt gear. One thing to keep in mind is any stat from equipment is much more than its stat counterpart. +30 crt for T.knife is nost likely around +45 without any class correction.

Hi. I like to randomly pop up here and there.

Aww, sorry to hear that it's tough. But I think assassin class is just a difficult class. lol. AGI/CRT w claws is the best way to level quickly, farm mats/crystas/armors solo. AGI (to me anyway) is the only defense I have atm. It seems to be working fine but I'm just waiting for the right time to reset my stats. x.x It might be at level 180+
