Need help refining my build

I'd drop ineptitude mesmer, go VoR on Panic mes and grab a SS necro with some melee buff curses. with only one physical dealing player, orders/curses would be pretty lacking here. Strength of Honor however is ridiculous on assassins. I, despite what everyone seems to think, would not advise strength of honor upkeep on more than one character for most hero builds.

........ bring judge's Insight On daggers, Judge's Insight offers nothing, 20% armor penetration only effects base damage, and on daggers, your base damage is 7-17..... its like adding 1-2 extra damage on each attack...


Also the OP's SOGM is bar is better off with Boon of Creation + Signet of Creation for E management (or drop SOGM and grab Soul Twisting with 12 in Spawning Power).

Overload should be dropped, the hero will spam it to little effect regardless if the secondary condition is met. Bring skills like Mistrust and Shatter Hex, these clean and prot your party vs spellcaster teams and double as armor ignoring damage.

The Dwayna Derv is wasted space, drop it for more damage, you already have an ER protter, an SoS - resto split healer and Dwayna's Sorrow bomber. If you really want another healer, bring a a Utility / Heal split hero (necros are good for this because of SR, or you can work in a Str+Honor smite support bar for your sin).


Your assassin should be running Jagged Strike > Fox Fangs > Death Blossom, the quicker attacks > unblockable slow +damage attacks, especially when Str+Honor is added to the mix. If block stances / block enchants are in the way, use asuran scan. Save the rez for your heroes, they do it better and don't rely on morale boosts anyway.

Your bar does not need Flashing Blades, the ER Protter should be able to keep you up along with the passive heals from D-Sorrow and the back up healer from SoS. I would recommend Way of the Assassin for the extra crits and IAS if Crit agility is stripped / falls off before recharge.

I'd drop ineptitude mesmer, go VoR on Panic mes and grab a SS necro with some melee buff curses. Worse Advice you can give, Drop Ineptitude Mesmer? 140+ armor ignoring damage on HM enemys? Plus Blind for protecting Party, Ineptitude=Rape, fi you dont agree, you should uninstall.

i would drop the derv as u have plently frontline, heroes dont E/Mo well either, i would do a Monk Heal/Prot, another thing is you dont have alot of direct damage, i would drop the extra rupts on the panic bar in favor of Wastreals Worry+Demise.
also its glad to see someone else finnaly realizing Sins power SY like Cocaine, You'll Like Way of The Assassin if give it a try, also res skills are for heroes dude, what are you doing?

Your build looks pretty sturdy but yes - I'd swap the Dervish out for something with some smite in there. this....

I'm by no means a FoW expert but the RoJ/SoH monk seemed to do wonders for me. The only other problem I had was the desire for decent hex removal as it seemed like every time I was ready to rock everyone's world, some jerk of a monster would cast Spiteful Spirit or Empathy on me.
