Ragnarok Online PvP Tips: How to Survive Against an Assassin Cross

What is it about the stance of an Assassin Cross that brings chill to the heart of anyone he might chance upon in an isolated PVP room? Is it that with the coming of the recent patches their power has increased tenfold and now they are killing machines… sadistic killing machines?
What does a normal player do to fight a powerful sinX in a one on one battle?
Here are some tips!
The same guy, BC (cerealicious-ph), who made the sinX skills guide came up with these tips on how to fight (or at least survive) a Player vs. Player fight against an Assassin Cross.

Hello Miss Alessa Silver, I also tried casting SW on myself when I’m using my wife’s High Priest then an Assassin Cross came and used Grimtooth on me, so what I did is I hide (using Hiding Clip ofcourse) then the Assassin Cross came closer and tried to attack me but I was inside the Safety Wall so he/she can’t really hurt or damage me hehehehe that is so very effective, just an addition /no1

Hello Skee!
Thanks for that input, very helpful indeed! These Assasin Cross characters are really scary and powerful, but then like everything in Ragnarok Online, there is always something to counter it, as long as you keep your presence of mind eh?
Thanks again!
