it might be good in theory [if a monk can 55, if a necro can 55, then a sin SHOULD be able to 55], but since you yourself cannot prove or even built the 55 sin, then we don't know for sure.

and no damage tank, no need to call people idiots or dickheads. people make mistakes, be it skipping parts of your posts or correct spelling. please refrain from doing that. i know i'm not a mod but i do believe we can all have a nice and CIVIL discussion here.

Why am I the idiot? You post a build, then got no proof to back it up. More damage? Don't think so.

Sums it up really.
In an earlier post no damage tank, you stated a monk would be better than an ss because an spiteful spirit necro can only cast ss and it cant cast essence bond and balthazars spirit on you, so basicly you are taking a monk that is just going to sit there getting energy and adrenaline

(your an idiot if you think your the one getting it because the energy is directed to the enchantment mainainer, and you obviously think this as you actually said it yourself)

And maybe cast Shield of judgement and zealots on you, taking years to kill due to knock down and running away from aoe, and it is possible to get stripped (unless you got your uber pwnage 3 second sb or shadow form)
Math lesson: Assuming your tanking 4 aataxes,
Soj, 216 damage every 3 seconds. Assuming you have 16 smite and curses.
Echoed ss, 294 damage every 1.33 seconds thats about 3 times faster.
But lets put it to prospective, chances are you wont even have a monk willing to come with you. But if they do SoJ will generally slow your run down a hell of a lot, so lets assume they will be keeping you alive, not slowing your run down. (also getting all the energy from the rather pointless balthazars spirit and essence bond that you think your getting energy from)
You will be sitting there spamming your 2 skills (the degen from poison will only neutralize aataxes natural regen) that recharge every 20 seconds, one skill of which is just a counter regen spell, no damage. With your stated 12 shadow arts your going to be doing a whoping 41 damage every 20 seconds (unless your using zealots, but that will slow things down even more because you'll lose aggro)
So, 41 damage every 20 seconds its going to take 5-6 minutes assuming you wont get interrupted once (because sv on ss necros is so noob) per one aataxe, when you could spend 20 seconds with an ss necro to take down a whole group... So much for more damage. Stop calling people dick heads and telling them to read you whole post, why dont you read my whole previous post rather than the first paragraph and having a strop.

Guitary boy, you really ARE making an idiot out of urself, essence bond gives energy to the caster, balthazars spirit gives energy to the enchanted person. i will now quote from guildwarsguru

Essence bond:

"While you maintain this "Enchantment", whenever target ally takes physical damage, you gain 1 energy."

Balthazars Spirit:

"While you maintain this "Enchantment", target ally gains adrenaline and Energy after taking damage. (The amount of adrenaline gained increases depending on your rank in Smiting Prayers.)"

please note the target ally part.

More damage? Still don't think so.

SS will still do more damage, than a single zealot's fire, iron palm, entangling asp. We're talking level 29's here. Bye bye unignored damage! You haven't tested it yourself, so there is NO WAY of proving it will do more damage than SoJ or SS.

I don't see how lower attributes can do more damage...Also, those deadly arts skill are vs 1 player only..if you're gonna kill'm 1 by 1 , gee gee energy if you're on fighting your last few guys.

*edit* I think the OP tries to make us as mad as possible, try out the build to prove it won't work, and then see if it does work( it won't ) so he doesn't waste his money on it.

I was looking forward to this build but normally (basing this on other build topics here) the OP tries it goes "Oh, hey this works" and shares it with the community. I might give this a go round for S&G's later on today.

you cant use dags, they are two handed, unless you find a -50hp dagger, you can only get 105 hp.

Youre trying to use assasins major damage to make up for smite monks damage. Without a combo assasins damage isnt enough, i use normal 55 skills and shadow form and do uw with guildie ss all the time.

If youre running into energy problems then revise your build. I farm a lot of stuff with a 55 sin and never have energy problems, once i get down to one or two guys, mending keeps me alive, all i need is PS.

It was a matter of you being the one who posted this build and not backing it up with screenshots or video. You said yourself you hadn't tried it. Then when people asked you for proof you called them idiots and dickheads for asking questions. One other minor thing you might consider is putting all your thoughts into one reply rather than double and triple posting.

okay... for the second time, we want proof, go take you assassin to droknars forge, run the EXACT build you listed (right attributes,skills etc), Take a screenshot of your attributes and skill bar and the entire starting portion of the troll cave dead at your feet (how a 55 monk would do it). or a video, and i will give you 20k, until you can do that no one will believe you.

okay, once again to clarify, I am placing a wager that you ( must be a picture from you) cannot solo the full cave area that a 55 monk normally pulls. the picture must show your party list ( to prove your alone ) your skill bar, your health, the attribute window, all the trolls MUST BE dead at your feet, not scattered away from you when they die.

IF you can do that, and use the exact build you said "works" then i will hand you 20k in game and issue you an apology.

I have a friend that runs ss/sv uw with me and I tried my assassin out down there. We did okay but I ran in to serious energy issues especially after using shadow form. Basically I'm just trying to think of what you did for energy management. I of course have the standard prot spirit/mending/healing breeze/balth spirit/shadow form. I'm not sure how I should fill out the other 3. Any suggestions?

(edit) forgot to put essence bond in there, that basically fixed me.

Any secondary monk can 55, but with 8 in smite, you may as well just wand stuff to death.

I recommend you actually test your 'builds' before submitting them for public discussion because... well you know what happens.

Ok, I honestly hate tanksin builds, but I'll give this a shot:

Firstly, please post a vid of this in action... I'm not 100% inclined to believe that you managed to do UW (which the 'with enchantment removal' part implies to me) solo with an assassin 55. For your damage combo, I would reccomend a different combo if you're going to be using Zealot's Fire. Instead of Iron Palm, try using Jagged Strike. This will let you (with Asp) place -7 degen on a target (14 damage per second). If you don't want to use Zealot's Fire for its marginal damage (which it is at 8 smite), you could try Death Blossom, which allows for more pure dmg.

Just a few things to consider- your current build has an optimum energy of 32 (unless you use +energy daggers, which are only +5), assuming full Shrouded. 2 maintained enchants means that you regen 2/3 of an energy per second. Balthazar's Spirit will help tremendously with your energy, but only to an extent. You won't be able to compensate for many things that the 55hp casting builds can (i.e. catching a rend, refereshing something that got interrupted).

@Dark Tykane, zealous daggers would make a little bit of a difference, but mostly their greatest advantage is when used in a full combo (ex. for pvp in the GPS combo, which is still usable), usually generating 5-10 energy (enough for another chain in some cases, or a finisher using energy that you technically don't have).

@Guitary Boy, the idea behind using Zealot's Fire isn't covered often anymore (many people just use SoJ and ignore ZF), but if you only cast your enchants that set off ZF every 3 seconds it is not counted as an AoE and can be used effectively).

EDIT: @no damage tank, you mentioned earning 20k in one farm (definitely gonna be UW in order to defend the build) and also mentioned the use of SoJ as your main damage...
Shadow Form {e}
Shield of Judgement {e}

...I'll let you figure it out...

No no no, the funniest thing is the OP never tried it; somewhere in the middle of the thread he said he's only lvl 14. The 20k refers to a bet that the build simply doesn't work... not even considering his claims that this can outdamage a 55 Mo build.

the thing i found most hilarious was that he yelled at a guy and called him a dickhead because he asked if we were supposed to use daggers for this.

The answer being immediate (and hateful) was "DAGGERRSS!!!!!"

well dumbass, tell me how you get 55hp with no -50 hp offhand. Please, PLEASE tell me....screw the vids...just tell me that.


2nd most hilarious: He was peer-pressured (over the internet, mind you) to delete his own character because he was scared of people chasing him down for videos and screenshots. Insecure, or crazy? Both? you decide.

I don't even play monk and I know this won't work...

Shield of Judgement without 16 in Smiting means that er... You're not doing maximum damage?

No Assassin can deal AoE armor ignoring damage efficiently as 16 Smite Monk... You've got what? Death Blossom?

Smite Monks will for me and anyone else who knows game mechanic, be the best 'invici-build' to be created and should only be that way.

The fact that invicibuilds work around an AoE armor ignoring skill is the only reason they work so well.

55 monk or 55 necro builds to me are the most efficient for such things...

2, i didnt say it was best at dmg dealing, its simply a cheaper 55 monk that deals a bit less dmg, so there u got it, it works just as a 55 monk does, but just cheaper.
