Hi, I don't actually have GW installed right now so this is purely theoretical, but I thought this seemed like a pretty good idea for (mainly monks/rits) heading sabway or a discord team (or whatever else).

Maybe this should be in Monk forum but it's pretty generic based on assassin secondary so I thought here, sorry if it's wrong.

[build prof=Monk/Assassin deadlyarts=12]["You Move Like a Dwarf!"][Iron Palm][A Touch of Guile][Entangling Asp][Signet of Toxic Shock]["Finish Him!"][Assassin's Promise][Death's Charge][/build]

I think it's fairly self explanatory, quite a nice chain with room for mixing and matching skills when you don't need the full thing. Has fairly nice damage with a decent Norn rank (~370) and knocklock with anti-melee/spammability/e-management.

If you want to run a discord hero team with it, can use mark of death in place of shadow step for another hex, or mirror stance if you just want something easy to maintain. Depending on your primary profession (probably has to be caster) you can put anything in the last slot.

Also, a team of these might not be terrible? Though that's an afterthought.

Also I realise this is quite similar to the player character for discord team, but only a few skills, and this could be used for more than just a discord team.

Tell me what you think, rip it apart

Sorry I'll try not to troll, but just to list the advantages I was trynna get at:

-unblockable and reliable damage
-can be used with any primary prof
-high defensive capabilities thanks to kd spam and anti-melee

so kinda barking up the same tree as ursan, except obviously its inferior to that as:
-no aoe kd
-not armor ignoring damage (mostly)
-less durable frontlining

I'd replace the N/Rit hero with a N/D and go standard PvE monk myself with AP.The minions and Dervish should be ample crowd control and you can always throw Great Dwarf Weapon around.

Novelty value aside I'd rather use my monk in a more effective and conventional role.Slotting Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support would pretty much do the same job while leaving you 7 skills free.

Your backline

I prefer the ebon sin over touch of guile and instead of frontlining on a monk why not just use some smiting signets such as bane/castigation for knockdown/energy.

At least this is how I vanqed Cantha on my monk.
