Fun assassin build

6. So is every hex, snare and enemy speed buff in the game, but you dont see me sitting here saying that damage is the perfect counter to heals? Some things are so obvious that they need not be mentioned. The assassin should pick targets distant from healers and without capabilities to inflict enough damage on you to do anything serious. I.E. Target the necro with vampiric skills instead of the flame burst ele seeing as frenzy does not double vampiric damage and flame burst would kill you in two hits with frenzy up. Simple logic like this should not need to be mentioned, so I usually dont need to post this worthless information for anyone, except for you. Not only this, but you should seriously look into getting a spell check that is integrated into your browser if you are that slow. You're a fool. Your entire battle strategy ("Logic" you say? Spock laughs at you.)takes place in a vacuum. If I were facing this build, the minute I saw you, an Assassin, go into Frenzy (and knowing your build has no stance cancel), I'm spiking you into the frigging ground.

Does Frenzy not double damage from Vampiric? No matter if it does or doesn't, because everything else will kill you almost instantly.

One KD every 10 seconds means absolutely nothing, because you're depending on Moebius Strike to enable even a second combo chain/KD. If your target is under 50% health, Moebius is either going to kill the target (which means you're only getting one KD per target) or you're going to have to use some of your other attack skills, which will screw up the rhythm for your next targets, because your leads/off-hands won't be available for the other dual attacks.

You're wasting slots with Leaping Mantis and Jungle Strike. If you're not bringing Twisting Fangs, your build is sucking most heinously--especially since you're focusing on dealing damage. Deep Wound is critical for damage infliction.

Your stance removal vanishes when you need to bring a Rez Sig. And you should always bring a Rez Sig, especially in RA/TA.

If you're using it for AB? If you aren't dead most of the time, I'm amazed. You'd have to be facing absolute morons for this build to work in any meaningful way at all.

To summarize: your build looks awful. I wouldn't even consider bringing it anywhere.

There's zero synergy, both in the skills themselves and in your approach to using them.

You have at least two entirely useless skills at the top of your skill bar.

Your KD becomes useless, as you're only using it once per target.

You're depending on a highly conditional recharge when you should be concerned only with killing your target. Don't be fooled by Moebius Strike; it's entirely a PvE Elite.

Your goal for this build (presumably AB) is inherently flawed, because I see no speed boosts (even Dash would be an improvement), a combo that is utterly castrated when you try to capture any of the control points (clustered NPCs+Ele+Warrior+Frenzy=you are dead), an IAS that will get people to laugh at you right before they spike your Ass into the ground, damage output that's absolutely dreadful due to choosing between Deep Wound or miniscule improvement from Blades of Steel...and I could go on.

Bottom line here is...what are you trying to pull here? No competent Assassin would use your build.

Bottom line here is...what are you trying to pull here? No competent Assassin would use your build. funny post... and the thing that makes it funny is everything you say has no logic in it, and you even mention it.

1, attack targets attacking someone else, not looking at you noticing that you have frenzy.

2, the reason why you wouldnt want twisting fangs is so that you DONT kill the target before moebus strike, the way everything works out, moebus strike almost is always the last hit and kills the target allowing you to switch targets, if deep wound was added, no moebus strike needed and you would need to wait for your skills to recharge.

3, 10 second long difference between knock downs? more like 3 seconds, and if the target is down for 2 for the first one, that only gives them a chance to barely cast a 1 second cast or attempt running.

4, using my kd only once per target? if they get healed, you hit them twice with it, which moebus strike allows you to continue to add more chains to your attack until they die.

5, yes, i realize a lot of pve'rs probably use moebus strike, but its no better than some of the assassins use flourish and other skills... but for the specific build, moebus strike works well in it.

6, you can bring twisting fangs if your that obsessed about it, reread my first post: Twisting Fangs//Death Blossom//Blades of Steel (meaning you could chose any of those three, blades of steel being the worst of the three due to the situational damage and long recharge of it if moebus strike worked). Death blossom is best usually because it does allow your moebus to recharge your skills.

7, (clustered NPCs+Ele+Warrior+Frenzy=you are dead) was very stupid... you dont take ports by yourself, you take them with monks around you or a stupid wmo that loves his healing hands and tanks for you. In the case that you are attacking npcs that are cluttered, try this combo: Leaping, jungle, death blossom, moebus, death blossom and usually something will die from your regular attacks after or you will eventually be able to use your horns. also as a note, horns of the ox still deals +30 damage if you dont knock them down... its like saying final thrust is horrible if you dont attack someone under 50%, it is better if it works, but doesn't destroy all worth of the skill.

8, res sigs are worthless in RA/TA, nobody else brings them with them, so reusing someone else who cant even res you after you die is pointless... and for TA I usually run with monks that I know, and I never die... so basically if your dying and your monk cant keep prot spirit on you, find a new group.

9, "You're wasting slots with Leaping Mantis and Jungle Strike." What would you like them to be? a hex and black mantis thrust? or an enchantment and golden phoenix strike? otherwise you cant get to your dual attacks.

10, You really lack logic, so basically your wasting your time reading this post. You dont even read the entire post and haven't realized yet that this build is infact suicidal for those who can not pick targets. The build will slaughter 90% of all warriors and rangers that you will ever find.

and seeing as you lack logic, allow me to explain how you kill warriors:
walk up to him without frenzy,
hit him with your lead and offhand,
frenzy + horns and do your chain,
moebus will hit when he is at 40% health,
horns to knock him down again,
finish your chain
and hes dead.

Although of course there are exceptions, allow me to list them so I dont need to read another one of your pointless posts: Deadly Riposte, Riposte, shock (If used by someone who knows when to use it)

In summary, play the game for 14 months, learn how to choose targets and the build will look fine, otherwise, dont post knock a build that you cant run due to your own stupidity.

Bottom line here, no uncompetent assassin or critic who think they are competent would use my build.

Is this entire thread some lame, misguided, incoherent attempt at satire? Or are you really that myopic as to think bringing Frenzy on an Assassin is a smart thing to do?

Dude, get a life, get a clue, then come back to talk about proper build design.

And if you're trolling, you won't be the first, and you sure as hell won't be the last, so you don't even get a cookie.
