Turning Fencing tank to Assassin

Lotheris, The oldest Bloodoak in my family has become how shall we say... obese, he hasing left the bank area in a long time. He is a tank which I for one dont find very fun. Im thinking about turning him into a assassin (I know its like a lower class of tank but oh well)
Skills are:
Primary - Fenceing, Tactics, Parry
Secondary - Magic Res, Anatomy, Healing

How would you guys recommend I change my skills around? Was thinking dropping parry maybe.

Would still need to have fencing and poison as primary.

I stripped Lotheris of his equipment for another one of my characters so if anyone have any of these buffs or armor laying around I could purchase? I think I already have fencing up to 110.

The easiest way is to simply drop Tactics to 60 and prime Poisioning in it's place, that may (read probably) won't allow you to wear plate anymore, which I assume he can now. If you want plate dropping tactics to secondary in place of Anatomy may keep you at 90 str. Either should work fairly well.

I would suggest dropping parry to 60(use a two handed weapon)and put poisoning in its place.

Spears (both long and short) and pitchforks are fencing 2 handed weapons.

I suggest you concentrate on fast hitting speed since you´re planning to make poisoner and forget plate because it gives dex-penalty. I´d put poisoning, fencing and magic resistance to primary skills and secondaries would be magery, parry and tactics.

This gives you high dex and magery as secondary makes autoheal to work properly; saves many times your life with high magic resistance.

Just a suggestion. :)
