** {{HeroIcon|Vindicta}} uses assassinate on an enemy {{HeroIcon|Warden}}. The baseline Assassinate on its own is not enough damage to kill the {{HeroIcon|Warden}}, but the increased damage (due to the additional damage from triggering Tankbuster) is enough to secure the kill. Since the additional damage from triggering Improved Burst is applied after the Assassinate, it is technically the item's damage which secures the kill, not the Assassinate. Thus, {{HeroIcon|Vindicta}} will not receive bonus gun damage from Assassinate's passive.
