So I am running hells vengeance and I want to get ahead of a problem before it happens. So we have an anti paladino's that cause things within 10 feet of him to lose fear immunity. Normally not a problem, but I have an executioner slayer who is going an intimidate shatter defenses build. So by level 14 he will be able to asassinate infinite times per day and once per day can do so without the standard to study.
So what can I do from every fight becoming a joke. Am I missing something about asassinate? I dont want to just make all the big bosses have fortification or immune to crits but I also dont want him to one shot every encounter.

Um, are we assuming the Slayer manages to sneak up to every big boss unnoticed?
Prerequisite(s): Advanced talents
Benefit: A slayer with this advanced talent can kill foes that are unable to defend themselves. To attempt to assassinate a target, the slayer must first study his target for 1 round as a standard action. On the following round, if the slayer makes a sneak attack against the target and that target is denied its Dexterity bonus to AC, the sneak attack has the additional effect of possibly killing the target. This attempt automatically fails if the target recognizes the slayer as an enemy. If the sneak attack is successful, the target must attempt a Fortitude saving throw with a DC equal to 10 + 1/2 the slayer’s level + the slayer’s Intelligence modifier. If the target fails this save, it dies; otherwise, the target takes the sneak attack damage as normal and is then immune to that slayer’s assassinate ability for 24 hours.
