It just doesn't seems fair to me. When the game started, they are good because not many servants other than assassins can generate decent amount of star. The release of 2030 already pulled them down, but now with powercreep it is just too much(many servants can generate decent amount of stars now, there are also a few that can do much better without even using quick card(losing damage output for stars)).

While caster too suffers from x0.9 damage multiplier, most of them have party buffs, which when stacked are stronger than what most servants can offer(our main support mostly come from caster). Not to mention that you most probably can't use caster as a support for assassin class.

Yes, I agree many of the assassins fits to be the support DPS, but with the x0.9(less damage) and selfish kit(for most, which makes them help increase the overall DMG output only when they attack), the slot is kinda wasted on them(better of with a pure support) with the exception of the case where you need a servant with Aoe NP and another with ST NP.

I too agree that they have alot of utility like targetable taunt, buff removal, guts, targetable dodge/invul, but more and more class are starting to offer them too(just not targetable taunt).

Basically what I'm saying is that 20% of critical generation is not a good exchange for the extra x0.1 damage anymore... at least imho.
