Introduction

Class guides are a rough explanation of the class, designed to give you an idea of the class and what you should be aiming for. You should really adapt the guide and follow your own instincts to match your play style!

I highly recommend looking at as many different sources as possible. The class discords are a great place to start, most have their own guides and resources as well as plenty of skilled players willing to help with questions.

The Hashashin class is a male assassin class that uses a Shamshir as his main weapon and a Haladie offhand (double-bladed dagger). He is Aal’s warrior, who is the god worshipped in Valencia. With Aal’s powers, he is able to manipulate sandstorms to quickly escape from danger or suppress his opponents. This also gives him an advantage in the desert, where he can travel slightly faster than other classes and has a slightly higher resistance to desert diseases.

At level 56, Hashashin can complete his awakening quest, allowing him to better harness the power of Aal, and unlocks his awakening weapon, the Dual Glaives.

Awakening VS Succession

Hashashin Succession and Awakening can be unlocked after level 56 after speaking to the Black Spirit and completing the Awakening and Succession quests under the suggestions tab.

  • The Awakening will unlock a completely new skill tree, which will be your primary skills from now on. The skills in the pre-awakening are mostly utility skills, and your main damage dealers will be your Awakening skills.
  • The Succession skill kit enhances your Shamshir skills instead and only has a few awakening skills.

Your awakening weapon still affects your succession damage and vice versa. For example, if you are using the Succession kit, then 30% of your Awakening AP is still applied to the damage of Succession skills, as well as the additional item stats on the awakening weapon, such as Human/Species Damage and Accuracy.

In PVE, both Succession and Awakening are considered fairly equal and more dependent on the spot. While in 1v1s, Awakening tends to be easier and better, Succession is still viable but requires more class knowledge to really shine. The Awakening kit also has a grab skill whilst succession does not. I recommend trying out both playstyles and seeing which you prefer.

Skill Builds

Since the skill point update in late 2022, you can obtain all skills for approximately 1,000 skill points. Focus on your main skills first, then level the passives. The Weight Training skill should be leveled last, since it only gives you weight limit increase.

Protected Skills

It is important to read through your skills to understand which skills have protection and crowd control effects. Read through your skills carefully to get familiar with what each skill does. You can also filter the different effects in the Skill Window (K).

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (3)Super armor (SA)
    • This means you cannot be crowd controlled while this effect is active (except grab/grapple), but you will still take damage from any attacks
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (4)Forward guard (FG)
    • This means you will block damage and crowd control effects coming from the front direction of your character. The block can be broken if you take enough damage and you will see a blue shield with a number, indicating the % left of the block.
    • Some classes have an “S block”. This means you will automatically use Forward Guard when moving backward with “S”.
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (5)Invincible (I-frame)
    • This means that you will not take damage and cannot be crowd controlled from any direction for the duration of the effect

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (6)

PVE Iframe

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (7) Evasion and Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (8) Sand Warp are also “PVE Iframes”, which means these skills have a 1-second invincibility effect against monsters only, even if you spam the skill repeatedly.

Locked Skills

To lock a skill, press the lock icon on the top of each skill icon in the skill window (K).

These are the Awakening skills I recommend locking to help prevent messing up combos during PVP.

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (9)Evasion
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (10)Paradise Beckons

These are the Succession skills I recommend locking to help prevent messing up combos during PVP.

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (11)Evasion

Hotbar Skills

These are the minimum skills I recommend putting on your hotbar.

You may also want to put more skills on your hotbar and cooldown slots to keep track of them. For more information about how to do this, check out our Edit UI and Settings Guide.

Awakening:

Aal’s Breath, Descent, Sin Splitter, Quicksand, Haladie Assault, Haladie Throw, Aals Command

Core Skills

Core skills are a way of upgrading 1 skill from your awakening skill kit.

Core skills are usually down to preference but most players choose between Sin Splitter for 1v1 PVP or Dune Slash for PVE and 1vX. Both skills have super armor on the skill whilst being used.

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (23)Core: Inquisition: Forward Guard while using skill.
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (24)Core: Dune Slash: Super Armor while using skill.
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (25)Core: Sin Splitter: Bound on good hits.
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (26)Core: Collapse: Forward Guard while using skill
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (27)Core: Ensnaring Sands: Bound on good 2nd hits
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (28)Core: Serpant’s Coil: Knockdown on good 1st hit

Skill Enhancement (Rabam) Skills

Skill Enhancement skills can be obtained in the Skill Window (K) under the “Skill Enhancement” tab at the top. At level 56, 57, and 58, you will have 2 different options to choose between. These skills have no skill points cost, but you have to have other skills leveled up to be able to take them.

Level 56 – [SHIFT + X]

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (29)Dominion Slash – Requires [Rupture III] and [Aal’s Dominion IV]
    • (Preferred Choice for Awakening)
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (30)Prophesy Blade – Requires [Rupture III] and [Chosen Blade V]
    • (Preferred Choice for Succession)

Prophesy Blade has Super Armor protection and a +20 DP buff for 10 seconds when used. It also has MP recovery on each good hit which is very useful. Dominion Slash is an unprotected skill but the Evasion Rate debuff is useful on Succession.

Level 57 – [SHIFT + Z]

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (31)Mirage Assault – Requires [Mirage] and [Descent V]
    • (Preferred Choice)
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (32)Aal’s Mirage Requires [Mirage] and [Aal’s Protection]

I would recommend Mirage Assault. The skill has super armor protection whilst attacking and then forward guard for the rest of the skill with a knockdown CC, while Aal’s Mirage has a stun with Forward Guard protection.

Level 58 – [Quickslot Only]

  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (33)Shadow Slicer – Requires [Sand Slicer III] and [Shadow Splitter IV]
    • (Preferred Choice)
  • Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (34)Sand Tornado Requires [Sand Slicer III] and [Piercing Tornado V]

I would recommend Shadow Slicer. The skill has super armor on the first hit and inflicts stiffness. Sand Tornado is a small I-frame ability but doesn’t offer much else.

Skill Add-ons

Below are some examples of PVE skill add-ons you can take.

If you would like example skill add-ons for other scenarios, please refer to the Class Discord and its resources.

I recommend experimenting with your add-ons and figuring out what is best for you because it really depends on your personal preference and how you play your class. If you’re simply not sure what to take then you can blindly follow the examples below and they will still be effective.

You can also check our Skill Add-on guide for a complete list of Skill Add-ons.

Weapons

Mainhand WeaponDetails
Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (47)
Tuvala Shamshir
Tuvala Weapons are obtained through Season Servers and are the best starting weapons. If you are a new or returning player, I would recommend creating a Season Character.
Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (48)
Kzarka Shamshir
Kzarka is a boss weapon that you will upgrade your Tuvala weapon into. It is a great weapon for PVX.
Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (49)
Offin Tett Shamshir
Offin Tett is a boss weapon alternative. Most players tend to pick Kzarka. The difference is that Offin has slightly more AP which can help you reach the higher AP brackets more easily, in return, you lose accuracy, which can be fine on certain classes that don’t rely on accuracy too much. If you are unsure of which weapon to go for, just go with Kzarka.
Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (50)
Blackstar Shamshir

Blackstar is the best in slot PVE weapon. Godr-Ayed weapons are an alternative to Blackstar weapons, with the same stats but a different enhancing method.

You can swap from a PEN Kzarka to a TET Blackstar and it will still perform better in PVE due to the additional monster damage. The monster damage applies to both your pre-awakening and awakening skills, even though it is a main-hand weapon. Unlike boss weapons, you cannot put caphras into this weapon, but it has a higher base AP. PEN Blackstars are also the hardest weapons to enhance.

Tuvala Dual Glaives

Tuvala Weapons are obtained through Season Servers and are the best starting weapons. If you are a new or returning player, I would recommend creating a Season Character.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (52)

Dandelion Dual Glaives

Dandelion is a boss weapon which you will upgrade your Tuvala weapon into. It is a great weapon for PVX.

You can also enhance this weapon with a Garmoth’s Heart to make it a Fiery weapon and unlock extra Crystal slots.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (53)

Blackstar Dual Glaives

Blackstar is the best in slot PVE weapon. Godr-Ayed weapons are an alternative to Blackstar weapons, with the same stats but a different enhancing method.

Like the main-hand Blackstar weapon, the awakening Blackstar has additional monster damage. However, it has less monster damage than the mainhand, so usually players prioritize getting the main-hand one first, or may choose to only use the main-hand Blackstar weapon.
Unlike boss weapons, you cannot put caphras into this weapon, but it has a higher base AP. PEN Blackstars are also the hardest weapons to enhance.

Offhand WeaponDetails

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (54)

Tuvala Haladie

Tuvala Weapons are obtained through Season Servers and are the best starting weapons. If you are a new or returning player, I would recommend creating a Season Character.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (55)

Kutum Haladie

Kutum is the offhand weapon you should get first and should swap your Tuvala offhand for.

The Kutum weapons have a mixture of AP and DP with additional monster damage. This makes them great for PVE and they are also good in PVP when running hybrid evasion builds on certain classes.

You can also enhance this weapon with a Garmoth’s Heart to make it a Fiery weapon with extra stats.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (56)

Nouver Haladie

Nouver is an offensive PVP offhand for classes that run Damage Reduction. It is considered the best in slot for PVP for most classes due to its high AP. However, on Hashashins that run Evasion builds, you are recommended to use Kutum in PVP for the Evasion stats.

You can also enhance this weapon with a Garmoth’s Heart to make it a Fiery weapon with extra stats.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (57)

Blackstar Haladie

Blackstar offhands are another choice for PVE. Godr-Ayed weapons are an alternative to Blackstar weapons, with the same stats but a different enhancing method.

However, when you compare a PEN Blackstar offhand with a PEN Kutum (Caphras 20), there is very little difference between the two. Blackstars are known to be the hardest weapons in the game to enhance, and obtaining a PEN Kutum with caphras level 20 is much more obtainable, for this reason, it is not recommended to go with a Blackstar offhand at the moment and would be an endgame goal for very few players.

Armor

For your armor, you will make a choice between Damage Reduction or Evasion gear. I recommend reading our guide about the two different DP stats if you want to learn what the two different stats do.

Generally, you are recommended to build Damage Reduction on Hashashin at first, then you have the option to swap to Evasion later on, this is because Evasion performs better on Hashashin at high gearscore.

Because of the way the Evasion stat works, you may find that you are squishy for a long time and that your Evasion isn’t really doing much for you. This is why players only recommend swapping to Evasion armors once you reach full PEN gear with Caphras Level 9 or higher. It is also worth noting that Damage Reduction is still viable on Hashashin, and is also viable on all classes, while Evasion is not viable on all classes. I highly recommend doing some research before committing to Evasion.

ArmorDetails

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (58)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (59)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (60)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (61)

Tuvala Set

  • Tuvala Helmet
  • Tuvala Armor
  • Tuvala Gloves
  • Tuvala Shoes

Tuvala Armors are obtained through Season Servers and are the best starting armors. If you are a new or returning player, I would recommend creating a Season Character.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (62)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (63)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (64)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (65)

Boss Set (Damage Reduction)

  • Griffon Helmet
  • Red Nose Armor
  • Bheg’s Gloves
  • Urugon’s Shoes

This boss set is the most popular boss set to go for after graduating from Season. This set focuses on Damage Reduction, which is viable on all classes.

Classes which should always pick damage reduction:

  • Warrior, Ranger, Berserker, Tamer, Valkyrie, Wizard, Witch, Dark Knight, Archer, Guardian, Nova, Drakania, Woosa

This is because these classes either have bad base evasion or have shields that scale well with Damage Reduction.

** Choosing the Red Nose Armor is recommended instead of Dim Tree to save you silver later on, since it requires far fewer caphras to get to caphras level 10.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (66)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (67)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (68)Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (69)

Boss Set (Evasion)

  • Griffon Helmet
  • Red Nose Armor
  • Leebur’s Gloves
  • Muskan’s Shoes

This boss set is the evasion build boss set. If you are unsure of which to pick, the general answer is to just go with the Damage Reduction set.

Evasion is only considered good on certain classes:

  • Striker, Mystic, Hashashin, Shai

and can be considered viable on other classes in return for less damage:

  • Sorceress, Musa, Maehwa, Ninja, Kunoichi, Lahn, Sage, Corsair, Maegu

** Choosing the Red Nose Armor is recommended instead of Dim Tree to save you silver later on, since it requires far fewer caphras to get to caphras level 10.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (70)

Fallen God Armor

Fallen God Armor is the best in slot armor piece.

It will eventually replace your Red Nose armor. To make the Fallen God Armor, you will need a Flame of Despair and a PEN Red Nose or Dim Tree Armor with level 10 caphras. This is why it is recommended to go with Red Nose, since it costs fewer caphras to get to caphras level 10.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (71)

Labreska Helmet

Labreska Helmet is the best in slot helmet piece. It will eventually replace your Giath/Griffon helmet. To make the Labreska helmet you will need a Flame of Frost and a PEN Giath or Griffon Helmet with level 10 caphras. Both of these helmets require the same amount of caphras to get to level 10.

Accessories

There are various different accessories in the game. At first, just focus on using the accessories that give you the highest AP in each slot.

There are also “free” accessories that all new players should get:

AccessoryHow to obtain
Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (72)Tuvala Accessories

Tuvala accessories are starter accessories obtained from the Season Server.

Try to push up your accessories to PEN if possible, but if you don’t have much time to play Season, then focus on your Weapons and Armor first.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (73)PEN Capotia Necklace

You can obtain a FREE PEN Capotia Accessory from the Season Servers Special Reward.

For your first season, it is recommended to get the PEN Capotia Necklace because it gives the most AP. You then want to create another Season character in the next season to get the PEN Capotia Belt, and finally the PEN Capotia Ring or Earring.

Hashashin Class Guide - Black Desert Foundry (74)PEN Ring of Crescent Guardian

You can obtain a PEN Ring of Crescent Guardian by completing Jetina’s PEN Accessory quests.

These are daily quests that take a minimum of 45 days to complete. Every new and returning player should complete these as early as possible for a highly discounted PEN accessory.

Common Starter PVE accessories:

  • TET Black Distortion Earrings
  • TET Basilisk’s Belt (or PEN Capotia Belt)
  • TET Ring of Crescent Guardian
  • TET Ogre Ring/Laytenn’s Necklace (or PEN Capotia Necklace).

Artifacts and Lightstones

There are a few different viable choices for both Artifacts and Lightstone combos. Hashashin is the “Magic Damage” type so you want to go for Magic Accuracy and Magic Damage for offensive artifacts.

For PVE Lighstones there are a few different options to min-max. For certain spots, you may want to use Species damage combos (eg. The Wild: Demihumans, The Wild: Kamaslyvia, The Wild: Humans). Species damage combos perform better if you are reaching the monster AP caps at a certain zone.

A more generic PVE combo is listed below that is recommended for your class and will work at any spot.

You can also find more information about Artifacts and Lightstones, and how to obtain them, in our guide. We also have a list of Best in slot Artifacts and Lightstones.

Useful Links/Credits

I highly recommend checking out the Hashashin Class Discord for resources about your class. The class discords always have the most up-to-date information and tons of experienced players that can help with questions or gearing advice. I would like to give a shoutout to the Staff and Experienced players in the Hashashin discord for all their hard work gathering resources. You can find some of their own guides below. I honestly cannot recommend enough to join the discord.

Credits Disclaimer: Since there are now 26 BDO classes, it is impossible for me to keep class guides fully maintained. My main class is Ranger and I don’t claim to be the best in any class. Therefore, I use resources and recommendations from the Class discords since (as all other players would agree) this is the best source. I also ask for advice from friends who are more experienced in the class. Where possible, I credit specific players for information such as Add-ons, and combos. However, sometimes there is no player mentioned as the original sharer. If there are any issues with credit or you would like certain information removed/changed, please reach out to me!

FAQs

What is the best in slot Hashashin? ›

Nouver is an offensive PVP offhand for classes that run Damage Reduction. It is considered the best in slot for PVP for most classes due to its high AP. However, on Hashashins that run Evasion builds, you are recommended to use Kutum in PVP for the Evasion stats.

Does Drakania need accuracy? ›
