Message: <blockquote data-quote="Majoru Oakheart" data-source="post: 4941925" data-attributes="member: 5143">No, I'm asking for the ability to use the class in a game.  If you can't USE the class, it might as well not be released.  If someone said, "Here's a brand new type of screwdriver.  It works great, you'll love it!"  Then, after you bought it, you found out that it only fit special screws that weren't available anywhere except from the company who made the screwdriver, and they were due to be released in 4-6 months, you'd say the screwdriver was useless until then.If the PHB didn't contain any equipment section or magic item section and they said "Here's 4th edition.  It had 8 complete classes!" (even though it is TECHNICALLY true) people would complain that the game wasn't complete because you can't actually use it.  Especially if they got a response from WOTC like "Don't worry, all the info you need to play it will come out in around 6 months".Besides, the class ISN'T complete.  A class isn't complete unless I can go through the character creation process from beginning to end without running into a situation where I can't continue.  In the case of the assassin, my character creation stops precisely when I look at my powers, see I can use implements, decide to pick a Ki Focus and can't find them.  I can't write down the attack bonus or damage for any of my implement based powers.  That's not complete.I'd like to repeat that I have NO problem with them holding back 80% of the Ki Focuses and only providing the bare minimum to play the class.  I don't even have so much of a problem with their being no multiclass feat(as you can play the class without it), hybrid info isn't even out until PHB3, so I certainly don't expect them to include that.  The ONLY thing actually missing from this article is Ki Focus items.</blockquote>
