Good for what? Sertanly not for PvP. It does't have neither a snare, nor a speedboost and the knockdown comes after the second non-IASed attack. If your conjure frost is dispelled you will be worse than 8 Beastmastery pet with no pet skills. Every time you cast shadow refuge you will be kited untill its over and then beaten senceless when you can't connect your golden phoenix strike. And seeing how it has 0 deffence skills...
Even if your golden phoenix DOES connect and you are not kitted every single deffence skill (that other people actually have in their builds) will ruin your chain (and you don't have any backup one)... blind, knockdown, blocking stance, simply running away.
For PvE monsters die pretty often so you wont always have the opportunity to refresh your attacks with Moebius, also you have no energy management so will run out of steam pretty fast after GPS>TF>MS>GPS>TF>MS while hopping to catch one of them away from the others and not running (as the casters that will actually stay away from the others will do). And if there is adequat enchantment removal with the monsters killer timing...you will have 0 skills you can use, unless someone is knockdowning for you or someone is dead so you can ress him. Oh, and as I mentioned you have 0 deffence skills so you will be eaten allive at fisrt opportunity.
Also 10 water magic only for conjure frost on assassin is more than a waste of attributes.
I'm not the best assassin there is, but if you at least give me some pointers for what you want to use your build - I'll do my best to help.

If you want a good constant enchantment on you, I advise Illusion of Weakness.

Umm, what made you think this was the best assassin build, b/c it pretty much sucks. I don't see any reason to use conjure frost except for use with GPS, but even then why would u waste precious attribute pts on skill that has no use to an assassin watsoever. Conjures are only good for constant dps, and being that your an assassin you shouldn't be in there that long for it to be effective. You might as well just use AoD+GPS at least you have a teleport to get in and out. Our skills already give us +armor ignoring dmg and Conjure Frost helps very little, its just a waste of a slot. If you want to moebius something why wont you get a better skill bar like shock+falling spider+HoTo+Moebius+ TF at least you'll have constant kd's, or just use the BoA SP sin. You could use that yangansin too or watever its called, it has better defense than this, even though it's not to my liking, I still find it way better than this build. Again what made you thing a crappy build like this is the best?
11 Feb 2007 at 22:30 - 5
Lots of problems with that build
1.depending on shadow refuge to get golden off is a BAD idea. Use something that lasts.
2.Moebius strike is wasted here since by the time you finish that combo you will have lost all your energy. The point of moebius is to spam a combo, make it recharge something like Black lotus strike and put in a usefull hex to go with it. that way you wont be useless while your energy recharges.
3.No Speed buff / shadow step = your just waiting to get hammered and die by a ranger or ele, or kited by any monk that has half a brain.

That is definitely a ?!?wtf?!? statement. Last time I checked all conjures have the same amt of dmg bonus at the same lvl's the only difference is the type of elemental dmg done. What do you mean conjure of flame is the only good one? Do you even know what your talking about? Locust fury is crap btw, it's definitely a crappy skill, why the hell would an assassin just stay in combat and autoattack his freaking target. Do you want to die.

Conjure Flame + Mark of Rodgort... I believe is what he meant.
Even then I suppose its kinda superfluous since the fire damage being done anyway is enough for the status effect.
As for Locust's Fury... I only found one possible use for it so far:
Zenmai => Locust's Fury
Me => Illusionary Weaponry + Arcane Mimicry.
[i.e. An Assassin doesn't need combos to do lots of unconditional damage.]

Conjure Flame isn't the only good Conjure. Guild Wars is a team-based game, so use some team-based synergy.
Conjure Frost + Battery Necro + Spinal Shivers Necro means that the guy you're hitting will be able to do... nothing.
20 Feb 2007 at 14:50 - 10
Lol I rage quit my guild yesturday beause of assassin skills ^^.
Shadow prison is alright for spiking but there really is better skills than that.
Exhaust assault is nice.
Death blossom is pretty good now the buff... Blades of steel really is not that good, if you think of how many skills are recharging (and sometimes not all will be recharging).
I like leaping mantis, jungle, ox, spider, frenzy, twisting fangs, skull crack, rush

... But it works without Conjure Frost... which if I rightly recall only makes any difference if you're already doing Cold Damage.

Wait wait wait, "Conjure Frost + Battery Necro + Spinal Shivers Necro means that the guy you're hitting will be able to do... nothing."
You are serious? You use, two or three players to disable one player? In the hope that there's no holy veil, or hex removal? Wowwwww : o. lol^^.
The5ThSeraph, why are you even debating that? It's retarded lol^^.

Because I save such comments only for those who really deserve them... like people who end a sentence in "lol", screw up capitalisation and add superfluous characters all over the place.
Oh... and one word for you:
Glint.
20 Feb 2007 at 21:01 - 14
ummm, seraph, you mean capitalization?
im on your side though...
20 Feb 2007 at 21:04 - 15
Kiba, like you do, not using CaPiTaLs at all.
20 Feb 2007 at 23:36 - 16
ALL YOU DO IS MAKE FUN OF GRAMMAR WHEN YOU COULD BE HELPING.
Happy?
21 Feb 2007 at 06:15 - 17
Dont make fun of grammar if it isnt a huge problem....its just dumb.
21 Feb 2007 at 10:29 - 18
Like many peoples says: people from UK and SAD are only good in english,in all other thing they are s***id.
I though they are wrong,but now I see it is very true for many players in Guild Wars and many people outside it.They just talk,talk,and talk,and make fun from other grammar,but they even don't know where is Croatia!! Ha!!
p.s. not many peoples from UK and SAD are s***id,but many are.I am sorry for some people that are really kind and smart enough not to make fun of some1 because his grammar.
Croatian,like Japan language are the hardest one,their grammar is hardest one,English is nothing,so don't think you are something special because you talk English since you are born!
21 Feb 2007 at 10:58 - 19
Croatian is just as hard as any other slavic language. I know where Croatia is. My English spelling is near-perfect. Your point?
21 Feb 2007 at 11:09 - 20
Point taken. What I mean was, debating about things when someone has mentioned using three characters to kill one character seems a bit silly to me. The bit about lol was just showing I find the humour in it.

As we're onto grammar now. You should not start a sentence with because. The three dots after 'them' isn't needed. Followed by like is also bad grammar. The three dots after 'oh' isn't needed. Starting the next sentence with 'and' is also bad grammar. Having glint on a new line, new paragraph is also wrong.
''It's retarded L.O.L'' would of been alright English, you've got me though. I shouldn't of added these characters '^^'; however, putting more mistakes into your post in some atteempt to remain superior when I wasn't even flaming you looks kind of retarded to me.
For the ''capitalisation'' part as you call it ( ell oh ell ), you forgot to cap the L in ''like''.
Someone that states they can lock down a player with three other players is like someone that states the moon is made of cheese, there is no point in bothering to argue with it. It is silly and also funny; however, thanks for your attempt at trying to out smart me. You failed.
I'm quite sure I made many mistakes writing this post. Some being grammar, spelling etc. I really do not care. All I'm trying to point out is that you trying to win the argument by bringing grammar into it won't because a) your grammar is bad and b) you've gone completely off topic. Maybe you thought I was talking about grammar to begin with, who knows. For your benefit I've tried to explain things better too.
