Anonymousscoundrels are really powerful
you will see people saying they are the weakest class or that their damage isnt good until the end
but that isn't true
another complaint is that the master skills suck, not true
crawling infestation; use it on an enemy about to die to spawn multiple summons (or those with low bodybuilding)
it doesnt have to wait 3 turns to "hatch"
Coup De Grace is a boss killer, simply wait one turn and then you will have the AP to move and finish them off in one hit
These classes are such bull*****In real life almost anything a dagger does a sword can do better.
