Class: Assassin/*
Attributes:
Dagger Mastery: 10+1
Shadow Arts: 8+3
Critical Strikes: 12+3+1
Armor: Shrouded
Daggers: Zealous, 15^50 OR +5 energy, +30 OR +5 Armor
Runes: Superior Vigor, Superior Shadow Arts, Superior Critical Strikes
Skills: Jagged Strike, Fox Fangs, Critical Strike, Palm Strike{E}, Twisting Fangs, Caltrops, Shadow Refuge, Death's Charge.

How To Use: Basically, you will want to single out a target, let's say a monk. Shadow-Step to their location, and open with jagged, Fox, Critical, Palm Strike, Twisting Fangs. If the target is still alive, cast Caltrops to cripple, and move in with Jagged, Fox, and Critical. Use Shadow Refuge when you want to heal.

IMPORTANT: You have very low health with this build (~401), so you are JUST a 1v1 type character. You also have NO REZ, but you can rip caltrops out if you simply MUST have a rez.

I don't get it. Whats with the two superior runes ? You don't even need one (not really that is). Other than that, its ok I guess. Death's Charge is kinda shitty though.

Neither are significant enough (IMO) to warrant -75x2 health.

Shame Shadow Form doesn't 'ignore' many types of damage.

I have a lot of problems with this build.

First of all, there is no need for the superior runes. You are sacrificing far too much health.

Second of all, it uses Death's Charge. I hope I never again see a build that uses that skill. All it does is teleport you ahead of your party, where you get your butt kicked, and frustrate your monk(s). Death's Charge is the skill that gives assassins bad names.

Thirdly, no rez. I know you say this is a 1 vs 1 build, but I'm not buying it. It doesnt inflict nearly enough dmage for that, so yuo would have to use this build in a party. ALWAYS bring rez when you are in a party.

Fourth, you have some impractical skills. Caltrops is really nothing but a waste of energy for a build like this. Maybe if you used something like Jungle Strike, Caltrops would be useful, but in this case, it isn't. Also, Critical Strike is not a very good Dual Attack, compared to your other options. With that attribute point distribution, you'll be hitting critical hits fairly often anyways. Use something like Death Blossom, instead.

No offense, but I recomend you reconsider a lot of things about your assassin and how you play it.
