| Type | Passive |

Katar Mastery is a passive skill of the Assassin class that rewards the katar fighting style with extra attack power and faster strikes.
Overview
Katars are the signature weapon of the Assassin, and this mastery makes them noticeably deadlier. As long as a katar is equipped, the Assassin hits harder and swings faster, reinforcing the aggressive, close-range playstyle the class is built around.
Mechanics
The benefits of Katar Mastery apply only while a katar is equipped. With any other weapon type, the skill provides no effect.
While a katar is equipped, the skill grants bonus physical attack that ignores the target's defense, and it improves attack speed.
Attack bonus: 4 × SkillLv (added ATK, ignores DEF)
Attack speed bonus: 0.5 × SkillLv (%)
At the maximum level this comes to +40 bonus attack and +5% attack speed.
Leveling

| 3 | 12 | 1.5% |
| 4 | 16 | 2.0% |
| 5 | 20 | 2.5% |
| 6 | 24 | 3.0% |
| 7 | 28 | 3.5% |
| 8 | 32 | 4.0% |
| 9 | 36 | 4.5% |
| 10 | 40 | 5.0% |
Notes
Katar Mastery is a foundation skill for the katar branch. Sonic Blow requires it at Level 4, and Sonic Acceleration requires it at Level 10, so investing here opens up the Assassin's strongest single-target tools.
