"Please help" is a very general request. It seems to me that you're going to do just fine following Kara's "balanced build" model for your Assassin.

Unless you're experienceing a specific problem, I think you just need to level up. Level 51 is simply insuffucient to tackle Bitterblack in my opinion, unless you've hired Level 200 pawns to help you. "Friend" people with Level 200 pawns to bypass their Rift Crystal cost.

I'd start Bitterblack at level 75 or so, otherwise your strength and magic stats simply won't make a dent in the monsters within.

One shortcut I've used when I created my second and third alts was to gift myself Dragonforged Rusted Bows and Rusted Daggers. Then, learn the dodge roll ability as soon as possible.

Once you have the Rusted weapons and the dodge roll skill, you can fight defensively on Bitterblack and let your high level pawns do all the hard work in order to level up fairly quickly. Debilitate enemies with Torpor to give your high level pawns a tactical advantage. You'll lose some experience points because of the level differential between your level 51 Arisen and the level 200 pawns, but you'll still gain levels faster than you would outside Bitterblack.

Get your hands on a Blessed Flower, duplicate it, and carry one around Bitterblack (especially to grind the Rotunda of Dread and Black Abbey) to accelerate your level growth.

When farming Daimon as an Assassin, my augment loadout is : Clout, Vehemence, Arm Strength, Adhesion, Attunement, Acuity. Dagger skills : Thousand Kisses, Shearing Wind, Instant Reset. Weapons : Framae Blades (strongest physical damage daggers)/Heaven's Key (for Wraiths and Living Armor)/Golden Bardiches (for Frostwyrms and Thunderwyverns), Rusted Bow. No sword, no shield. Use Taglius's Miracles and Salomet's Secrets against Death and Daimon (or as needed). That's it !

I hope this was the "help" you were looking for !
