Re: assassin secondary job
Yes, any Faction character can have any secondary that is not their primary.
I plan on making my Assassin a Mesmer secondary.

Re: assassin secondary job
I myself am running an Assassin/Ranger. The idea was to have a Trapper. It sounded like great fun to be able to shadowstep into the middle of a packed enemy formation, lay a trap, and get my evil cackle on.
Though I found out my theory was right. There are Factions skills, Core Skills, and Prophecies skills. Even if you unlock Prophecies skills, a Factions character can't use it. I presume it goes the other way too. When thinking of choosing a secondary to purchase some of the skills you unlocked in Prophecies, what you should first do is check your old character. Open the skills menu, and go Sort By: Campaign. Make sure they're Core skills that you want.
Because they're not Core skills, I find myself wanting for some of the better traps. Dust Trap, Barbed Trap, and so on. The only Core Skill Trap is Flame Trap, apparently.

Re: assassin secondary job
Wow, that's good to know. So for instance, if I took my prophecies ranger and traveled to Cantha, I wouldn't be able to use the Canthan ranger skills on him? In that case, would it not be possible to make a Ranger/Asassin? Or is it that you just can't get the skills on the other continent so you'd need to have license keys for both Chapters on your account to do that?

Re: assassin secondary job
Interesting, my A/R has Barbed Trap.
Either you didn't notice it on the Skill Trainer or they changed the availability after I got it.
They did alter the number of team members for the Harbor based quests I noticed.

Re: assassin secondary job
So what you're suggesting is that there are a good deal of skills that won't be available in Factions that were in Prophecies.
Unless you have both packs? This is a very interesting question.

Re: assassin secondary job
I'll try to get online soon to get my Ranger from Tyria into Cantha...a trip to the skill trader should clear things up.

Re: assassin secondary job
Actually, it was updated today, that I could pick up Barbed Trap from the trainer. I could not get it before. Good news for me. Yay for Trapping Assassins.

Re: assassin secondary job
From what I have heard, there are skills that can only be obtained in Prophecies... and there are skills that can only be obtained in Factions. The only way to get all of your skills is to have both games activated on an account. However, if you get a skill that can only be obtained in Factions, you can still use it in Prophecies... and vice versa.
If you have the Factions strategy guide, you'll notice that not all of the skills from Prophecies are listed. My guess is that the missing skills can only be obtained in Prophecies. I heard someone say a while back that "I Will Avenge You" is not available in Factions. I looked it up in the Factions strategy guide and sure enough, it's not listed. The skills that are labeled as "core" seem to be skills that are available in both games... and the ones that are not listed as "core" seem to be the new skills that can only be obtained in Factions.
