Assassin Hatred Basics Guide

Hatred

Hate feeds the dark side of the force, and no one knows this better than the hatred assassin. Able to command dark force powers that assault many targets at once or sap an enemies very essence from a distance, the hatred assassin can also stand face-to-face against any foe.

  • Role: Damage
  • Type: Damage Over time
  • Weapon: Double-bladed Lightsaber
  • Distance: Short Range
  • Mirror: Shadow – Serenity

Hatred for New Players

  • Hatred is a damage-over-time discipline – you’ll have to watch and track the timers of two of the attack debuffs you place on your enemies, make it a slightly harder discipline to play.
  •  Hatred is melee range, which means you must be very close to your enemy to attack, which can be harder for new players to get used to, but you have a jump ability to help you close the gap between you and your enemy, force speed to get there faster, and one of your main longer-range abilities will root your enemy in place so they can’t move.
  •  This style is very mobile and you can easily run and jump around while fighting without any issues! Two of your abilities have a longer range if you get a little lost too.
  •  If you are able to watch your debuff timers, this discipline is decently easy to learn with a guide.

How to play a Hatred Assassin

You can start playing Hatred at level 1. To start playing Hatred, you will need to first create a Assassin character, which can be played by Sith Warriors and Sith Inquisitors (or even the Jedi Knight and Jedi Consular if you unlock the dark-side Combat Styles.)

Once you are ingame, press K on your keyboard to open the Combat Style tab, and choose Hatred from the three options. This choice is not permanent, you will be able to switch between all three options by finding a rest location like a cantina.

Below Level 80

Below Level 80

If you are below level 80, there are no true guides available to tell you what specific abilities you should be using, because the ideal rotation would change every level.

Instead, you can use this guide to figure out which of your abilities are attacks, which are defensive, and which are just useful.

Level 80

5 Ability Basic Rotation

Not quite ready to learn all your abilities yet? Use this quick 5-ability rotation for the Hatred Assassin until you’re ready to read and learn from a true level 80 guide.

  • Discharge and Creeping Terror are your main Damage over Time (DoT) abilities that needs to be constantly on your target. Set them once and only re-apply when they’re about to fall off. Both of these abilities will make up the bulk of your damage output when kept on the target 100% of the time!
  • Eradicate is your third DoT but it works a little differently. It ticks and runs out much faster than the other two but does a ton of damage. Keep an eye on this ability and make sure to use it whenever it sparkles.
  • Death Field buffs the damage your DoTs do greatly, so use it whenever it’s available. Double click or double tap the Death Field key to place it immediately on your target’s location, instead of having to aim where it lands.
  • Leeching Strike is your signature lightsaber move, and is next in your priority to use when Death Field is done and your DoTs are still on the target!
  • Saber Strike will be your filler ability between DoT abilities so you don’t run out of energy.

More than 3 Enemies

  • Lacerate is a great Area Damage attack because it will spread your DoTs from one target to all others caught in the same attack! Put your DoTs on the highest health enemy and then lacerate to spread it to all of them. Spam it when you have nothing else to use for AoE as well.
  • Death Field will boost the effectiveness of all your DoTs on multiple targets, so drop this on as many as you can after spreading with Lacerate.

Extra Tips

  • Phantom Stride is an exceptionally useful mobility move that instantly moves you to the target. Will also enable you to use Assassinate below:
  • Assassinate is another melee ability you can work into the rotation: above 30% HP on your target it will only be made useable by Phantom Striding (and will glow), but can be used more often below this amount of HP as a powerful filler attack and a way to reset the cooldown of Eradicate.
  • If you have extra energy, you can replace Saber Strike with Thrash when your Force energy allows.
  • Feeling Spicy? Recklessness can be used to buff the damage of attacks like Leeching Strike and Assassinate, and it’s cooldown is reduced by critical hits from your DoTs. Activate on cooldown.
  • Mind Trap is a special ability sometimes known as a CC, a Crowd Control, a sleep or a sap. It can only be used while you are stealthed and out of combat, and it is used to put enemies to sleep. Sleeping enemies allows your group to sneak past them, or sometimes just keeps them out of the fight as long as no one attacks them. While you can’t put bosses to sleep, if you are playing Flashpoints, stealthers are often expected to go into stealth and put smaller enemies in-between bosses to sleep.
Level 80

Before you play…

Making your Discharge (every 17 seconds) and Creeping Terror (every 17 seconds) debuffs more visible on your enemy can make it easier to know when they are about to fall off.

  1. Press ESC on your keyboard, choose Interface Editor from the menu
  2. Select the “Target Frame” box where the portrait of your enemy would appear
  3. In the center box, scroll down and check 🔲 Highlight Debuff, then scroll down more and check 🔲 Personal Debuffs
  4. Save. This will show your own debuffs highlighted in gold so you don’t mix them up with your groups’!

Unlike many other classes, you will need to watch your debuffs more closely while playing Hatred.

Useful Abilities

These abilities may not be directly for attacking, but they are used heavily by skilled Assassins in combat to turn the tide of a fight.

  • Seethe - Regeneration - Regain health out of battle.Level 1
  • Electrocute - Stun - You can use your short stun on weaker enemies to stop them from running around, from casting abilities, to stop them from damaging you, or just to keep them out of the fight in general.Level 7

  • Force Speed - Movement - Increases movement speed by 150% for 2 seconds. Does not break stealth.Level 15

Enemy castbars that fill up from left to right are called casts and can be interrupted and the ability will be stopped, but castbars that go from right to left deal damage the entire time they are channeling. Using your interrupt in combat is very useful as it can prevent the enemy from damaging you, or sometimes even prevent them from stunning you or knocking you back!Level 19
  • Mind Trap - Crowd Control - Your crowd control (CC) is a special type of stun you can only use when your enemy is outside of combat. You use it before a fight, to temporarily knock an opponent out of the fight while you deal with the other enemies. Accidentally damaging your crowd control'd target will wake them up.Level 19
  • Overload - Optional Knockback Level 27 Option 1/3 - Pushes enemies back.Level 27

  • Mass Mind Control - Detaunt - Your detaunt ability will cause enemies to lose interest in your character, at least for a short time. This is most useful if you're getting attacked during group fights when your tank is supposed to be taking the damage, or when your companion is set to tank.Level 31
  • Force Slow - Slow - Slows slow the enemy down, making it hard for them to run away.Level 35
  • Phantom Stride - Leap - Jump to a faraway enemy.Level 60

Tree Choices

As you level up, you will be able to make choices about how you play your Hatred Assassin with the Ability Tree, which can be opened with the K key on your keyboard. If you do not choose one, a default option will be chosen for you.

You will have eight choices to make as you level up, at levels 23, 27, 39, 43, 51, 64, 68 and 73. All of these Ability Tree choices are not permanent choices and can be changed later. If you are following a Level 80 guide on how to play your Hatred Assassin, you will need to make sure to choose the same options as they have. You may not have the same choices chosen as a friend who is also playing a Hatred Assassin.

Choose from one of three ways that you want Death Field to change at level 23. Your options are Death Focus, Pervasive Death, and Deadly Field.

Death Field

Creates a death field at the target location, dealing internal damage and stealing life from affected targets to heal you for 10% of the damage dealt. Strikes up to 8 targets within a 5-meter radius.

Death Focus

Death Field gains an additional ability charge, allowing it to be used again before going on cooldown. Killing an enemy or activating Recklessness generates one charge.

Death Field gains an additional ability charge, allowing it to be used again before going on cooldown. Killing an enemy or activating Recklessness generates one charge.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Death Focus - Dropping a field on each new large pack of enemies should ensure you have Recklessness ready for each one. Big damage boost for AoEing weak stuff.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Pervasive Death - Pervasive Death's Armor Penetration makes it the best choice for most scenarios.

Flashpoint Suggestion: Pervasive Death - Pervasive Death's Armor Penetration makes it the best choice for most scenarios.

Operation Suggestion: Pervasive Death - Pervasive Death's Armor Penetration makes it the best choice for most scenarios.

Level 27 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 27, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 27 choice are Overload, Maul Spike, and Force Magnetism.

Overload

Deals energy damage and knocks back up to 8 enemies within a 15-meter cone in front of you, binding them in electricity and immobilizing them for 5 seconds. Standard and weak enemies are additionally knocked down for 3 seconds. Direct damage dealt after 2 seconds ends the immobilize effect prematurely.

Pushes enemies back.

Maul Spike

Dealing damage with Maul from stealth stun the target for 2 seconds. Standard and weak enemies are knocked down.

Force Cloak increases movement speed by 50%. Force Speed lasts 1 second longer and slows all enemies within 5 meters by 75% for 2.5 seconds when activated.

Flashpoint Suggestion: Overload - You can use Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available.

Operation Suggestion: Overload - You can use Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available. Note that most operations enemies will be immune to knockbacks, but may still be useful in some areas.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Force Magnetism - Force Magnetism can really help a stealthy character solo certain content faster, but for tangible combat benefits, you can also take Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Force Magnetism - Force Magnetism can really help a stealthy character solo certain content faster, but for tangible combat benefits, you can also take Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available.

Level 39 Choice: Eradicate Change

Choose from one of three ways that you want Eradicate to change at level 39. Your options are Ruin, Eradication Ray, and Befall.

Eradicate

Crushes the target with devastating force, dealing kinetic damage initially, plus an additional kinetic damage over 6 seconds. The target also becomes Vulnerable for 45 seconds, increasing the damage taken from Force attacks by 5%. Replaces Shock.

Ruin

Whenever a target affected by your Eradicate dies, it bounces to the nearest target, instantly dealing its initial damage and priming the target for being Eradicated, causing Eradicate to deal an additional 25% damage on initial hit.

Whenever a target affected by your Eradicate dies, it bounces to the nearest target, instantly dealing its initial damage and priming the target for being Eradicated, causing Eradicate to deal an additional 25% damage on initial hit.

Eradication Ray

Eradicate now deals all its periodic damage over 1 second.

Eradicate now deals all its periodic damage over 1 second.

Befall

Dealing damage with Eradicate applies Befall to the target, increasing the critical hit chance of your periodic effects by 20%. Lasts for 10 seconds.

Dealing damage with Eradicate applies Befall to the target, increasing the critical hit chance of your periodic effects by 20%. Lasts for 10 seconds.

General Suggestion: Befall - As a build focused on periodic damage, a 20% crit chance for them is extremely strong. The other choices kind of change how Eradicate works but doesn't return nearly as much damage bonus as this choice does for free.

Level 43 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 43, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 43 choice are Maliciousness, Hungering Force, and Overcharge Saber.

Maliciousness

Killing an enemy or activating Recklessness resets the cooldowns of all melee attacks and Eradicate and increases their damage by 10% for 20 seconds. Stacks up to 2 times.

Killing an enemy or activating Recklessness resets the cooldowns of all melee attacks and Eradicate and increases their damage by 10% for 20 seconds. Stacks up to 2 times.

Hungering Force

The critical hit chance, critical hit damage, and life stolen of your periodic damage effects is increased by 10%. Whenever you are healed by a Hatred discipline effect, you generate 2 Force.

Overcharge Saber

Overcharges your lightsaber charge for 15 seconds, immediately restoring 15% of your max health. While active, Overcharge Saber increases the life stolen by your abilities by 50%, the damage of Lightning Charge by 50%, the chance to trigger Lightning Charge by 25%, and heals you when their effects are triggered. The triggered healing cannot occur more than once per second. Requires a double-bladed lightsaber or electrostaff.

While active, Overcharge Saber increases the life stolen by your abilities by 50%, the damage of Lightning Charge by 50%, the chance to trigger Lightning Charge by 25%, and heals you when their effects are triggered. The triggered healing cannot occur more than once per second. Requires a double-bladed lightsaber or electrostaff.

General Suggestion: Maliciousness - Being able to use Recklessness to reset the cooldowns of Eradicate and your melee strikes is huge, as they are the rotational abilities with the longest cooldowns. Learn to use Recklessness at the right times with this choice and get huge DPS gains!

Level 51 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 51, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 51 choice are Formless Phantom, Fade, and Dark Stability .

Formless Phantom

All area effect damage is reduced by 60% for 15 seconds after Mass Mind Control is activated.

All area effect damage is reduced by 60% for 15 seconds after Mass Mind Control is activated.

Fade

Reduces the cooldown of Force Cloak by 30 seconds and extends its duration by 5 seconds.

Dark Stability

Activating Deflection grants 6 seconds of immunity to stun, sleep, lift, and incapacitating effects.

Activating Deflection grants 6 seconds of immunity to stun, sleep, lift, and incapacitating effects.

General Suggestion: Formless Phantom - As a damage player, the number one source of damage done to you is likely area damage (so long as there is a tank or tank companion around). This choice makes you MUCH more durable. That said, if you find yourself using Force Cloak a ton, Fade is also a pretty versatile choice.

Level 64 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 64, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 64 choice are Obfuscating Speed, Force Phase, and Lambaste.

Obfuscating Speed

Increases your movement speed by 15% and your effective stealth level by 10. Activating Shock, Ball Lightning, or Eradicate increasing your movement speed by 50% for 9 seconds. This effect cannot occur more than once every 18 seconds.

Increases your movement speed by 15% and your effective stealth level by 10. Activating Shock, Ball Lightning, or Eradicate increasing your movement speed by 50% for 9 seconds. This effect cannot occur more than once every 18 seconds.

Force Phase

Force Speed and Phantom Stride grants Force Phase, removing all movement-impairing effects and granting immunity to them for 2 seconds.

Lambaste

Increases the damage dealt by Lacerate by 25%.

Increases the damage dealt by Lacerate by 25%.

General Suggestion: Force Phase - Slow/root break is a great default choice for Hatred as unlike Deception it really doesn't need a buff to lacerate. Obfuscating Speed is also viable as an all-around movement speed boost.

Level 68 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 68, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 68 choice are Severing Slash, Whirlwind, and Force Shroud.

Severing Slash

Strikes targets in a cone, dealing weapon damage, slowing their movement speed by 50% for 3 seconds and healing you for 50% of the damage dealt.. Requires a double-bladed lightsaber or electrostaff.

Strikes targets in a cone, dealing weapon damage, slowing their movement speed by 50% for 3 seconds and healing you for 50% of the damage dealt.. Requires a double-bladed lightsaber or electrostaff.

Whirlwind

Traps the target in a whirlwind for 8 seconds. Non-player, non-standard, and non-weak targets heal rapidly while trapped. Damage causes this effect to end prematurely and stuns the target for 2 seconds.

Your crowd control (CC) is a special type of stun you can only use when your enemy is outside of combat. You use it before a fight, to temporarily knock an opponent out of the fight while you deal with the other enemies. Accidentally damaging your crowd control'd target will wake them up.

Force Shroud

Purges all hostile removable effects and increases your chance to resist Force and tech attacks by 200% for 3 seconds. Does not break Stealth.

Purges all hostile removable effects and increases your chance to resist Force and tech attacks by 200% for 3 seconds. Does not break Stealth.

Multi-Enemy Solo Suggestion: Severing Slash - The extra AoE ability can be nice for big pulls of trash but wouldn't bring this to any single target/group content stuff.

Solo Single-Strong-Enemy Suggestion: Force Shroud - A self cleanse is very useful in pretty much every form of group content not to mention this is an extremely powerful "usually-only-for-tanks" defensive cooldown! Take as default for sure.

Flashpoint Suggestion: Force Shroud - A self cleanse is very useful in pretty much every form of group content not to mention this is an extremely powerful "usually-only-for-tanks" defensive cooldown! Take as default for sure.

Operation Suggestion: Force Shroud - A self cleanse is very useful in pretty much every form of group content not to mention this is an extremely powerful "usually-only-for-tanks" defensive cooldown! Take as default for sure.

Level 73 Choice

Choose from one of three Assassin abilities at Level 73, you can only have one of these options at any given time. Your options as a Hatred Assassin for the Level 73 choice are Reaper's Rush, Avoidance, and Shroud of Madness.

Reaper's Rush

Phantom Stride grants Reaper's Rush, allowing your next Assassinate to be used on any target, regardless of remaining health. Reaper's Rush lasts for 10 seconds. Additionally, if the target of your Phantom Stride is killed within 10 seconds of using Phantom Stride, Phantom Stride's cooldown is reset.

Phantom Stride grants Reaper's Rush, allowing your next Assassinate to be used on any target, regardless of remaining health. Reaper's Rush lasts for 10 seconds. Additionally, if the target of your Phantom Stride is killed within 10 seconds of using Phantom Stride, Phantom Stride's cooldown is reset.

Avoidance

Reduces the cooldown of Jolt by 2 seconds, Unbreakable Will by 30 seconds, and Force Speed by 5 seconds.

Reduces the cooldown of Jolt by 2 seconds, Unbreakable Will by 30 seconds, and Force Speed by 5 seconds.

Shroud of Madness

Activating Force Cloak grants 2 seconds of Force Shroud.

Activating Force Cloak grants 2 seconds of Force Shroud.

General Suggestion: Reaper's Rush - This choice is pretty rotationally important to Hatred due to the Assassinate reset. If you can handle the DPS loss, Shroud of Madness is still a strong defensive option.

Death Field restores 5 Force for each enemy hit and reduces the cooldown of Recklessness by 5 seconds for each hit.

Force Cloak increases movement speed by 50%. Force Speed lasts 1 second longer and slows all enemies within 5 meters by 75% for 2.5 seconds when activated.

Solo Single-Enemy Suggestion: Force Magnetism can really help a stealthy character solo certain content faster, but for tangible combat benefits, you can also take Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available.

Solo Many-Enemy Suggestion: Force Magnetism can really help a stealthy character solo certain content faster, but for tangible combat benefits, you can also take Overload to knock enemies off ledges for an instant kill, or Maul Spike for a stun if no ledges will be available.

Enter Stealth while you are in combat, either to run away, to sneak off and heal up, or to take advantage of stealth in the fight. If you enter Combat Stealth while you are alone or all your team mates are dead, the fight may reset.

LvL31
Mass Mind ControlDetaunt

Immediately reduces threat towards all current enemies by a moderate amount. Player targets deal 30% less damage for 6 seconds when attacking anyone other than you.

Your detaunt ability will cause enemies to lose interest in your character, at least for a short time. This is most useful if you're getting attacked during group fights when your tank is supposed to be taking the damage, or when your companion is set to tank.

Dealing damage with Eradicate applies Befall to the target, increasing the critical hit chance of your periodic effects by 20%. Lasts for 10 seconds.

General Suggestion: As a build focused on periodic damage, a 20% crit chance for them is extremely strong. The other choices kind of change how Eradicate works but doesn't return nearly as much damage bonus as this choice does for free.

LvL43
Exploitive StrikesPassive

Critical hits with Force attacks increase your melee critical chance by 5% for 10 seconds.

Critical hits with Force attacks increase your melee critical chance by 5% for 10 seconds.

Killing an enemy or activating Recklessness resets the cooldowns of all melee attacks and Eradicate and increases their damage by 10% for 20 seconds. Stacks up to 2 times.

General Suggestion: Being able to use Recklessness to reset the cooldowns of Eradicate and your melee strikes is huge, as they are the rotational abilities with the longest cooldowns. Learn to use Recklessness at the right times with this choice and get huge DPS gains!

LvL43
Hungering ForceOptional Passive Level 43 Option 2/3

The critical hit chance, critical hit damage, and life stolen of your periodic damage effects is increased by 10%. Whenever you are healed by a Hatred discipline effect, you generate 2 Force.

All area effect damage is reduced by 60% for 15 seconds after Mass Mind Control is activated.

All area effect damage is reduced by 60% for 15 seconds after Mass Mind Control is activated.

General Suggestion: As a damage player, the number one source of damage done to you is likely area damage (so long as there is a tank or tank companion around). This choice makes you MUCH more durable. That said, if you find yourself using Force Cloak a ton, Fade is also a pretty versatile choice.

LvL51
FadeOptional Passive Level 51 Option 2/3

Reduces the cooldown of Force Cloak by 30 seconds and extends its duration by 5 seconds.

Force Speed and Phantom Stride grants Force Phase, removing all movement-impairing effects and granting immunity to them for 2 seconds.

Force Speed and Phantom Stride grants Force Phase, removing all movement-impairing effects and granting immunity to them for 2 seconds.

General Suggestion: Slow/root break is a great default choice for Hatred as unlike Deception it really doesn't need a buff to lacerate. Obfuscating Speed is also viable as an all-around movement speed boost.

LvL64
LambasteOptional Passive Level 64 Option 3/3

Increases the damage dealt by Lacerate by 25%.

Increases the damage dealt by Lacerate by 25%.

LvL68

Strikes targets in a cone, dealing weapon damage, slowing their movement speed by 50% for 3 seconds and healing you for 50% of the damage dealt.. Requires a double-bladed lightsaber or electrostaff.

Solo Many-Enemy Suggestion: The extra AoE ability can be nice for big pulls of trash but wouldn't bring this to any single target/group content stuff.

LvL68
WhirlwindOptional Crowd Control 30m (long range) Level 68 Option 2/3

Traps the target in a whirlwind for 8 seconds. Non-player, non-standard, and non-weak targets heal rapidly while trapped. Damage causes this effect to end prematurely and stuns the target for 2 seconds.

Your crowd control (CC) is a special type of stun you can only use when your enemy is outside of combat. You use it before a fight, to temporarily knock an opponent out of the fight while you deal with the other enemies. Accidentally damaging your crowd control'd target will wake them up.

LvL68
Force ShroudOptional Defensive Level 68 Option 3/3

Purges all hostile removable effects and increases your chance to resist Force and tech attacks by 200% for 3 seconds. Does not break Stealth.

Purges all hostile removable effects and increases your chance to resist Force and tech attacks by 200% for 3 seconds. Does not break Stealth.

General Suggestion: A self cleanse is very useful in pretty much every form of group content not to mention this is an extremely powerful "usually-only-for-tanks" defensive cooldown! Take as default for sure.

LvL68
BloodlettingPassive

Your damaging periodic effects have a 30% chance to trigger Bloodletting, which finishes the active cooldown on Assassinate and makes your next Assassinate usable on a target with any health level. This effect cannot occur more than once every 15 seconds.

Additionally, if the target of your Phantom Stride is killed within 10 seconds of using Phantom Stride, Phantom Stride's cooldown is reset.

General Suggestion: This choice is pretty rotationally important to Hatred due to the Assassinate reset. If you can handle the DPS loss, Shroud of Madness is still a strong defensive option.

LvL73
AvoidanceOptional Passive Level 73 Option 2/3

Reduces the cooldown of Jolt by 2 seconds, Unbreakable Will by 30 seconds, and Force Speed by 5 seconds.
