Of the five new prestige classes (blackguard, arcane archer, assassin, harper scout, and shadowdancer), we particularly liked the assassin and arcane archer. Prestige classes work as another class for your character to multiclass with, but each has strict prerequisites (i.e., assassins need to have eight points in both Hide in Shadows and Move Silently). Assassins can perform death attacks (which instantly paralyze the target), a multitude of dodges, and the Invisibility and Darkness spells. The arcane archer has some pretty killer moves, such as Enhancing Arrows (up to +5, zounds!), Seeker Arrows (which always hit their target), Hail of Arrows (hits every enemy), and the Arrow of Death.
