Assassin's Mark is a spell that marks a single target with a curse. Hits against the marked target have added critical strike chance and multiplier. The marked target grants a power charge and life and mana recovery when killed.

Skill functions and interactions

• Mark: Only one mark (regardless of source) can be active at all times. Increasing the curse limit will allow you to apply additional hexes on top of a mark, but will not let you apply additional marks on different targets or apply multiple marks on one target.
