I'll suggest Ninja.
Ares is better for Ninja and people say Hera for Assassib. And yes, the swap is useful.
For PvP, you can swap for some tile control. If your Ninja survives the first round (putting him on second or third line or with some DEF aura slaves of some sort), he can swap to disrupt the enemy's formation, and kill all em backlines easily (archer trigger teams, ronan at backline).
In PvE it's useful at certain instances as well. Ninja refresh is useful in gold mine. Swap is usefu in capitol. My previous tactic with legendary capitol is to swap ninja with the boss, boss gets DEF debuff and Bereserker proceeds to rape it. That is, if you don't have a pulling unit (Leon, Warlord, etc.) or can easily clear Capitol Legend with some Ronan lineup. Still, Shadow's attack is still useful on the wave of mobs there.
Swap with Stealth is useful on events too. The Snowman event previously, Ninja's swap amd stealth was useful (the Horde type event format where waves of mobs spawn at both left and right sides). Swap's utility goes down on some Legendary event stages such as Mega Bosses as they resist it, but the DEF debuff still applies which is still useful. Though on the said circumstances, you could prefer another unit that could debuff DEF (Shizu SAM, Ronan RM etc.) as well since the swap loses it's utility.
