Trying out a self-made sin build, would appreciate some feedback

you do realize palm strike doesn't need a lead attack right? Yeah, but knowing I'd be running at least one enchantment I thought I'd take advantage of it.

Either remove Lead Attack for [critical agility] or otherwise use [Jagged strike] for bleeding pressure. Just use Critical Agility. Spreading bleeding is massive pressure? The only use I've found for it is as a built in cover condition on Twisting Fangs.

1) Assassins don't need resurrection skills, they're usually the first to die.
2) Palm Strike doesn't require a lead attack. I don't know if you want the lead attack in there for extra damage or you just didn't know that.
3) For spiking, conditions shouldn't be necessary, aside from deep wound and/or cracked armor. Cracked armor should be applied before your spike (Or the first attack), and deep wound should be applied later in the spike. However, you need an attack after it's applied in order for it to be effective.
4) Your critical chance is actually pretty low, even for an assassin without critical eye. If you're not going to put it in there, I would recommend either taking 2 points out of crit or DM and specing into healing prayers with vigorious spirit. Maybe calling it "spiking" was the wrong term. Perhaps pressure would be a better one? The massive amounts of damage and conditions would either kill the mob outright, or put enough pressure on the monk to disable it too. I know it's not the perfect build, hence why I came here to see if I could tweak it a bit.

You could substitute in [repeating strike] for [horns of the ox], as many enemies will be adjacent in pve, though there isn't a "must be KDed" attack following horns of the ox (ie falling lotus strike) in that chain so if enemies were adjacent it would not break it... If thats the case then why not Death Blossom instead of Horns of the Ox? it has a much shorter recharge, does way more damage and since you won't be getting that many knockdowns anyways, you're not really missing out on it right?

Let's see I've got this chain memorized from having it used on me:

[palm strike][trampling ox][falling spider][horns of the ox][twisting fangs]

There are many variations of that, one I have saved has 7 attacks but I haven't got it memorized. You could substitute in [repeating strike] for [horns of the ox], as many enemies will be adjacent in pve, though there isn't a "must be KDed" attack following horns of the ox (ie falling lotus strike) in that chain so if enemies were adjacent it would not break it... ^2 Duals in a row

its [palm strike][trampling ox][falling spider][horns of the ox][falling lotus strike][twisting fangs] although you can fit 2 fallings after the KD if you have a 33% IAS

I'm not too sure about Trampling Ox in PvE because of the 8 second recharge. To me that long feels like an eternity unless you got Moebius Strike or Assassin's promise to recharge it or you could carry Death Blossom as a secondary dual that you can use while Ox is recharging.

Your chain could go something like Palm Strike -> Trampling Ox -> Falling Spider Strike -> Death Blossom -> Palm Strike -> Death Blossom

or Moebius Strike -> Death Blossom ad infinitum works well



If thats the case then why not Death Blossom instead of Horns of the Ox? it has a much shorter recharge, does way more damage and since you won't be getting that many knockdowns anyways, you're not really missing out on it right? On a 100AL target, Trampling Ox's recharge is almost perfectly synchronized when I get to it for the 2nd rotation around. Granted, not many targets do have 100AL, but given time for switching, lag, and running and starting attack, I think the 8 second recharge works out fine.

Anything above 8 is a little iffy. 10 or 12 seconds of recharge means I'll have a lot more downtime, but we'll see. So far, my assassin is ripping stuff apart just fine.

^2 Duals in a row Yes, because Palm Strike recharges so fast, the actual chain goes:
[Palm Strike][Trampling Ox][Falling Spider][Horns of the Ox][Palm Strike][Twisting Fangs]

Edit: agreed with Bobby, Palm Strike builds are for PvP - just explaining the above quote
