I Need Assassin PvE Builds, Factions Only

I bought Factions years ago, just started playing again a few days back. I only have Factions, so I'm limited for areas to go to, items, skills, etc. Anyway the only thing I have ever played is assassin, so I'm trying to get a good build going. My main character is a level 20 A/Mo, picked Mo because of some old outdated build I saw on some wiki.

Anyway does anyone have information about creating builds inside of a single campaign? PvX is designed across all campaigns, and I'm not planning on buying anything other then GW2. I have a pretty good thing going right now, took a few pointers from the newer PvX site and made something simple.

All help appreciated!

I would at least get eotn for HoM.

Jagged strike > Fox fangs > Death blossom & then w/e you want will be optimal.

Unfortunately, you'd be hard pressed to find anything more efficient than that. Other builds have been proposed but people have shown them to be mathematically inferior in terms of pure DPS. Now, if you're looking for something to break the monotony, that's different, but Sins really need an overhaul to make them more versatile(please God only in PvE, let's not have "Dervs Ruin PvP" 2.0)

I think that changing FF and DB to their PvP versions would be a good place to start with skill balance for PvE assassins.

If you want to try another style of builds, use AP builds with just about any chain that works for you.

Gwpvx does have at bottom links for builds specific to one campaign or it used to have - not used it for ages but worth checking anyway

Nightfall is worth a purchase.

Your really gimping yourself without access to Critical Agility, it's that good.

Yeah, I've been using custom GWPVX builds.

It is a great skill though.
Well that kills any possible discussion in this thread, huh?
