'''Assassin's Stab''' is a recurring ability in the ~~franchise~~. It may instantly kill a target.

'''Assassin's Stab''' is a recurring ability in the {{DQSeries}}.

It may instantly kill a target when used. In the main series the skill is usually performed with a {{Knife}}, but it can be used with any weapon in many spinoff games.

==Appearances==

===[[~~Dragon Quest VIII~~]]===

==={{DQ3HD}}===

[[Jessica]] can use ~~'''~~Assassin's Stab~~''' as a knife technique~~ after allocating 22 ~~skill~~ points into the ~~associated skill~~. After allocating 100 points, it is replaced by the deadlier '''Sudden Death''' ~~technique~~.

Assassin's Stab was retroactively added to the 2024 remake learned at level 16 by the {{Thieves}} if their wisdom exceeds 33 points. It costs 4 {{MP}} and has a success chance of 1/3rd before evasion, [[Dazzle]], and resistances & vulnerabilities to [[Whack]] apply. If the attempt fails then the skill deals normal damage with the Strike element, and unlike [[Pressure Pointer]] the technique is affected by [[Oomph]], [[Muster Strength]], [[Egg On]], [[Attack Attacker]], [[Sap]], & [[Kasap]].

===~~[[Dragon Quest IX]]~~===

==={{DQ8}}===

~~This ability~~ is learned ~~with~~ 58 ~~skill~~ points invested into [[List of knife skills in Dragon Quest IX|Knife skill]].

[[Jessica Albert]] can use Assassin's Stab after allocating 22 points into her {{Knife}} skill. The rate of success is '''independent''' of the foe's resistance to [[Whack]], with a fixed 12.5% chance to work.

After allocating 100 points, it is replaced by the deadlier [[Sudden Death]] technique, which deals an additional 30% more damage regardless of success and has a higher accuracy of 25%.

*In the [[Nintendo 3DS]] version, [[Red]] can also learn Assassin's Stab after allocating 25 points into her {{Knife}} skill. However, her's will not upgrade into Sudden Death. Sudden Death now also deals '''80%''' more damage instead of just 30%, and this stacks with the additional damage from both [[Dragonsbane (Weapon)|Dragonsbane]] and [[Zombiesbane (Weapon)|Zombiesbane]].

==={{DQ9}}===

An attack that possesses a fixed 12.5% chance to instantly kill a target. It costs 3 {{MP}} to use and is learned after 58 points have been invested into the [[List of knife skills in Dragon Quest IX|Knife skill]]. On the enemy side, it can be used by [[Peckerel]]s.

==={{DQ10}}===

==={{DQ11}}===

Assassin's Stab is a secret skill that can be learned by [[Erik]] through the ''Knives'' panel in his character builder for 18 skill points, requiring at least four of the surrounding panels to be unlocked first. It costs 5 {{MP}} to use and has a 20% chance to kill a target, but will rise to 45% if '''Nastier Knives''' is mastered for another 20 points.

==={{DQMJ}}===

Assassin's Stab costs 8 {{MP}} to use and has a chance of causing instant death. It can be learned from:

*[[Assassin]] (75 points)

*[[Bounty Hunter]] (75 points)

*[[Cluboon (skill)|Cluboon III]] (38 points)

*[[Diminisher]] (100 points)

*[[Estark (skill)|Estark]] (58 points)

*[[Huntsman]] (100 points)

==={{DQMJ2}}===

Assassin's Stab can no longer be learned from [[Diminisher]], and the point requirements for [[Assassin]] and [[Estark (skill)|Estark]] have changed. It can now be learned from:

*[[Assassin]] (85 points)

*[[Estark (skill)|Estark]] (68 points)

*[[Muspell]] (32 points)

*[[Reaper (skill)|Reaper]] (53 points)

*[[Sagittar (skill)|Sagittar]] (58 points)
