I know she has the mobility and madness thing (plus occasional crit dash), but it feels like a stiff breeze will kill her.

I know Assassins aren't supposed to be tanky, but it feels like all of them are far sturdier than Serqet.

I do think Serqet is VERY lacking in the survivability department, but I guess Hi-Rez just wants you to make the fashionable choixe and get some (Devourer's) gloves.

She is, which is why I usually start or at least get magi's blessing on her. The HP and especially CC reduction helps a lot with survivability throughout an Arena game.

I would say she's slightly squisher, but she has a good amount of escapes.

I think the control she has over an enemy, basically rendering them useless for 2 seconds, and in that time, easily killing them, makes her squishy downside, justified.
I tend to grab Blink on her, so I wont have to use my jump to initiate, and can use it for escapes or even a chase.
She is indeed squishy, but name me one other character who can render you completely useless for 2 seconds, and pretty much secure a kill that way, and have the means to escape.
Hell, if you play correctly, you can even render 2 characters useless and make them damage eachother.
I've had double kills where I threw Cobra's Kiss on 2 people, dash through them, and finish them both off with a simple basic attack, while they could not do anything.
I can't think of any other character capable of doing that.
Ontop of that, she can divert attention away from a team-mate in order to let them escape if need be.
She has a lot to offer in fights.
But just like any other assassin (Apart from maybe Nemesis), you can't just jump in to a crowd and expect to escape with your life intact.

I see a lot of Serqets just jumping in for a kill, even though getting it, die in the process.
In the end, that does not seem worth it, if you both die.

She's got two movement abilities, blink is terribly useless while sprint & beads can better secure a escape or prevent CC during fights.
