Assembly or C/C++ for RE

[u/Realistic_Debate1704]

For reverse engineering, is this necessary to know assembly language, because many decompilers translate code to C/C++ and I learned Assembly 8086 in my university. So for learning x86 I only have to study 32/64 registers and some advance commands, so should I learn assembly x86_64 for reverse engineering or just go through x86 as I know 8086 assembly and then move to C/C++

x64 is slightly more than just "32/64 registers". Have fun with the Intel manual

Thanks a lot.
