Hello Guru, recently i did my first 20th level in GW. It is assassin

.

The problem is, i have only Prophecies and Factions and when i was finding any good pve builds for missions and quests lot of them were built from skills wich are from EOTN and nightfall

. I tried pvx too, but still nothing

I am rly enrapt by A/Ra or sincaster but i cant find anything.

Has anyone some resolutions please ?

You can't ask for builds here, you can however post a build of your own and then we can help you improve it.

NF/EotN can make good sin builds better, but you don't actually -need- them to make a good pve build.

A hint: find a way to spam Death Blossom. Come to us with a build and we can give you pointers

Will the Sharpen daggers apply bleeding on all foes with use Deatrh blossom ?
Will Moebius recharge spells too ?

Thanks! The build submitted does not include any skills, only attribute point investments.

To answer your questions:
-You can use spells with daggers (whether is useful or not is up for debate)
-Sharpen Daggers will not trigger Bleeding on the foes hit by the AOE portion of your Death Blossom, only the primary target.
-Read Moebius Strike's description, it states it recharges attack skills

Some general pointers when crafting your build:

-Assassins are made to kill stuff in melee (usually with daggers).
-Your making an assassin build, use assassin skills, unless they take advantage of critical strikes (the assassin only attribute) the skills chosen are not complementing your build. However some skills offer utility, be aware of this.

1.golden lotus strike ok, but there are better lead options
3.moebius strike + 4.death blossom you'll never be able to use these. Death blossom needs to come after an off-hand attack and moebius strike needs to come after a dual attack. After gls you can't use either of these. You need to put in an offhand attack which follows a lead attack.
2.teinai's wind + 5.whirlwind not much point to these. The damage will become trivial once you get into the harder content, and you've got better things to do than spam knockdowns (i.e, spamming dagger attacks).
6.opt.
7.critical eye ok.
8.aura of restoration this would be useless even if tw and whirlwind were worth bringing.

attack skills are where you hit things with your weapons. Spells are... When you cast a spell. . .

I don't know if this is much of a help but when I made a assassin, I tend to use this:

1 Jagged strike
2 Fox Fangs
3 Death blossom
4 Flashing blades
5 Critical eye
6 optional
7 optional
8 optional

Critical strikes 12+1
Dagger mastery 12 +1+1

Plain and simple dagger chain and does decent damage.
The optionals can be used for a rez or defense skills like shadow steps.

I don't think a IAS will do wonders here, because 2/3 skills of the chain are fast activating attacks that won't really benefit from a IAS.

under Attack Skills.

In regards to the OP however, the availability of IAS skills are few and far between without Nightfall (Way of the Assassin, Critical Agility) and/or EOTN (Drunken Master)

its worth getting nf/eotn if you can, there cheap in a bunch of places, like amazon
