What advantages do they have over a a mesmer?

The assassin is a physical dude that can not only emulate all other physicals (because of his nice primary) BUT can also emulate all offensive casters (because of AP being built into the class).

VoR + backfire = lololol

as for mesmers conditional damage, its not like they are not going to be using any skills or w/e makes it conditional. I about pissed myself form laughing so hard the other day cause i put VoR and Backfire on a necro with bitter chill and he blew himself up XD.

so primary assassins can farm titles and items better. sins can acheive some of the highest dps in the game. they can also switch to partywide defenses with SY. they're also great runners for those missions that just aren't worth it. permasins are good aggro controllers as well as amazing caster shutdown - esp against pve spikers. sins make decent ursanways due to criticals. it can go ranged physical with critical barrage. sins have builds for certain tricky areas - ie shiro and the clubbing bear quests.

mesmers do not suffer from anorexia, however, the way the assassins do. the mesmer appearances are better fed than the bulemic sin counterpart, but. . . other than aesthetics, mesmers don't have many abilities that are exclusive to the class. furthermore, even with reflexes that borderline psychic, the AI can do it better.
