Alright, after looking at a bunch of skills for awhile I came up with this idea...

Ravenous Gaze - E
Vampiric Touch
Vampiric Bite
Blood Ritual
Augury of Death
Golden Fox Strike
Entangling Asp
Signet of Toxic Shock

Ironically, this build focuses around you and your target being below 50% - risky as hell, but you can play sneaky right? The general flow is this:

- Cast Blood Ritual on your teamates to help with energy regen, while you sit near the back at around 40-45% health. Hopefully you'll draw someone out to you or your team will call a target and he'll get below 50%
- Cast Augury of Death on your target as he approaches below 50% which shadow steps you in to get the surprise
- Ravenous Gaze off the bat to deal 110+ dmg and heal you the same
- Golden Fox to lead (cant be blocked/evaded), Entangling Asp to knock them down and poison for 15+ sec, then Signet of Toxic Shock for 80+ dmg
- Vamp Touch/Vamp Bite for 120+ to finish it
- Get some free energy from Soul Reaping

Now, some possible other skills that could help....

-Desperate strike (+60 dmg if you're below <50%)
-Demonic Flesh (20% sac and +175 max health)
-More focus on assassin finishing (Fox line-up, Impale, etc)
-More focus on getting the hell out once done (Return, Shroud of Distress)
-More focus on necro aid (Signet of Lost Souls)

I think I'm going to actually roll with this for awhile and see how well it does. Something I do need to figure out is where my stats is going to be - Deadly Arts and Blood Magic are key, with Soul Reaping coming in close third for continuation for the fight. If I go more assassin finishing, probably need Dagger skills for the Fox line. Is there a gui tool or some website I can tinker with the numbers for each of my stats with a capped char?

Any insight would be great guys.....going to start the build soon, so any input would be good. And no "it sucks!" - I think it'll be fun.

As you are aware, Golden Fox Strike can be evaded or blocked, unless you are under the effects of an enchantment. You have no enchantments on you, so this skill can be blocked/evaded.

Deadly Arts: 10
Blood Magic: 12 (+ rune)
Soul Reaping: 6 (+ rune + head piece)

I think that should work.

Suggustion:
Drop Golden Fox Strike, take Dancing Daggers (counts as a lead attack - under Deadly Arts)
Drop Vampiric Touch/Bite and take Dark Pact. This will sac 10% life and do damage to 1 enemy.

Hope this helps.

Well, chances I've got an enchantment from a team member is pretty high but I take your drift....I could use demonic flesh for that.

Vamp Touch/Bite over Dark Pact? VT/B are faster and do more damage unless I'm missing something. And when I'm going for the kill, sacrificing life versus draining to regain isn't that smart...kinda stuck on why you'd suggest a slower no-drain skill that does less damage
