The Hermit, a third job advancement in Maple Story, is a quick and nimble fighter often associated with high damage and "
kill-stealing." Hermits are also called "sins," a shortened form of their inferior selves, the Assassin. The
class is infamous in Maple Story, and often considered to be "the most fun
class," though such a claim is up to speculation. The most famous skill of a Hermit is to manipulate a shadow who emulates all strikes that the Hermit performs.
