First off, I'm not sure if this idea has been used before so don't flame me if it has been. Secondly, I am quite poor and will not be able to test this so anyone who is interested in this could test it out and I woudn't complain The build would be based around 3 main skills: Deady Paradox, Feigned Neutrality, and Illusionary Weapon. It is possible to use deadly to keep up feigned neutrality. Now, while normally feigned neutrality would keep you from attacking, it does not affect attacks under the effect of illusionary weapon. So, one would simply maintain feigned neutrality using deadly paradox (that's 150 AL with a pretty big regen on an assassin) and use illusionary weapon to deal some nice damage. Since the build wouldn't require any points in a weapon mastery attribute, any weapon could be used, but I'd think the best weapon for this would be daggers (fast attack speed) anyway, or maybe a scythe. Any thoughts on this idea?
P.S. Sorry about not having an organized build up, wanted to see if the idea would check out with you guys before spending my time on it.

Same thing, but as a Me/A.

...and if you go with As/Me for IW, you'll want Dagger Mastery points anyway to double strike (a pseudo IAS). Without any type of IAS like that, L12 IW damage is pretty poor and not worth it.
BTW Dark Escape also works with IW.
