Gameplay Notes
Secret Gear
The Assassin and Tormentor classes revolve around using Secret Gears, disposable items that grant powerful effects. Each gear requires materials to craft, can only be used a certain number of times per battle, and are used up for their effects in battle.
If you are currently an Assassin or Tormentor, from the Party menu, there is a Secret Gear button in the top left. Otherwise, from Party > Classes, click on the Secret Gear button on the right side of the Selectively Skilled skill to open the Secret Gear menu. Here you can equip secret gears or trade for new ones.
Secret Gear will not be consumed during Trial Battles.

Assessment
Assassin is commonly known as the "whale" class, since it requires so many rare materials to maintain secret gears that only players who have a lot of excess items can afford to use it optimally.
