Ghost Assassin

Ghost Assassin
Level	3 ~ 4 , 6
Race	Ghost
Zone	Ishiguro's Rest - Stage 11 and 15 - Training Fight

Ghost Assassins appear during Ishiguro's Rest, and are followers of Sensei Ishiguro similar to the Ghost Samurais. They seem to wield Swift Blades despite them being secondary arms.

The most difficult part of battling a Ghost Assassin is their tendancy to use Shadow Blend, making themselves nearly impossible to hit with an attack.

Ability Selection

Notes on enemy AI:	While in a given battle stage, enemies will attempt to use First Choice abilities. If impossible (due to focus, silencing or cooldowns), they will proceed to Second Choice, etc. Cooldown for enemies indicates how often abilities may be used, and is effectively one less than for Sonny (IE cooldown of 2 can be used every second turn) Enemy-targetting abilities have a chance of targetting the weakest enemy rather than targetting at random; this is given in the Attributes section above. Ally-targetting abilities always target the weakest targetable ally. Selection within a category is random unless indicated. All exceptions noted below.
Battle Stages	First Choice	Second Choice	Third Choice
HP above 50%	Strike Zombie Poison
HP between 50% and 45%	50%: -Strike -Zombie Poison 50%: -Shadow Blend
HP below 45%	Shadow Blend	Strike Zombie Poison

Tactics

Because the Ghost Assassin has little health, it doesn't take as many attacks as other opponents to defeat him. However, he has a high, consistent chance to deliver critical hits, so the classes with low health should not let their guard down when fighting him. His Shadow Blend makes it difficult for the player to hit him. The player should try to take out the Ghost Assassin before he can activate Shadow Blend. Stunning him then delivering the final blow is the safest way to get rid of the Ghost Assassin. If you have electro bolt use it because it can kill them in one hit.
