 ==Desirability==
-The '''boots of the Assassin''' are a definite boon to stabbers, as the monster detection and massive stealth boost make it even easier to reach sleeping opponents and land that lethal hit. They are also amazingly useful for other melee characters, so long as you have some means of generating stabbing opportunities: the short blade-grade stabbing multipliers can be massive, and the much higher base damage of heavier weapons can lead to extremely potent blows. A reliable source of invisibility, the [[Dazzling Spray]] spell, or distracting allies are all excellent ways to land stabs even if you're wearing noisy armour, though raising your Stealth skill will still improve your stabbing performance signficantly.

 Casters and ranged fighters certainly don't suffer for wearing these, but they may find a pair of boots of [[running]] preferable.
