GVG - Ganker build (Comments welcome)

oh, so your wanting to wait for 25 minutes not helping your team? good for you, now do as we say :P

You cant realy put survivability onto a sin, its a very fragile thing. All you realy need is a good monk. ...This is a very common GVG build. That many guilds run. I wont wait 25 mintues as my job is to elimate archers etc in less then 5. Once they are done, my job is done and I am back helping the team. Most guilds will leave 1 player hanging around in the back. If they don't, we win because I have no problems taking out the NPC's. If they bring 2 to combat me then my team upfront has a much easier job. Anyway, I was looking for someone to help me with more survivabilty for the simple fact that after I take out 3 NPCS (back to back) i have to DE out and wait for health regen. I was trying to find out if anyone had some cool TIPS so I could just chain kill the NPCS (Archers mainly). I guess I asked in the wrong place sorry. (PS top 90 guild dude, we know what we are doing).

Solo Ganker build means it's used to kill the NPC's incase a GVG match goes into VOD. Seconed LMS has to hit a moving target, not a bleeding one. The weapon chain works great. You use it like this.

LMS > JS > TF > 3 auto hits > MS > HOTO Repeat. Sorry I typed the chain wrong.

This will allow you with the armor and weapon I said, to be able to spam this chain and stay with high mana all the time. Thats not really the problem. Thats been tested true. I am just looking on how to put more survivabilty into this build. for LMS your right, the discription they have on the forum skill list is wrong. with that said, what i said about replaceing dark escape with a teleport, and replaceing HoO with a condition removal are both still valid points for increaseing your surviveability.

the max dmg you can do with daggers durring your 3 auto attacks is 17, b4 armor.. which will probly be around 2-5 pts after armor.... while you are standing right next to the guy you're fighting and doing nothing for dmg, he will be pounding on you back. useing a teleport instead of auto attacking will keep you from takeing dmg durring that time.

and again, conditions, esp blind, will own any assassin that doesn't have a condition removal skill. yes, it is funny to knock people on their butts, but intermitent HoO has minimal impact unless you're following it up with falling spider.

you're haveing problems with surviveability, because you are spending too much time exposed to being damaged when you are not in position to dish it back out. 3 auto hit's might go by fast, but the time you're wasteing there makes a big difference in the overall scope of how long you will live.

edit > i just read your last post and saw your only concerned about getting hit by the NPC archers....not much you can realy do in that situation though as the assassin is best used in hit and run on single targets, and that realy isn't a hit and run situation, as there's many of them there all fireing right at you..... try going ranger secondary and useing dodge; or mo and use mending.. - maybe try deaths charge to move from 1 archer to another faster - won't help you with surivieability, but should increase how many you can drop b4 haveing to run away and heal.

You cant realy put survivability onto a sin, its a very fragile thing. All you realy need is a good monk. that is compleately not true, my sins survive absolutely fine, without any help from monks. ( and i sacrifice or burn away my own health with both my sins)

you just have to learn, that no matter what combo you come up with - you are going to fire it off as a spike (either by limit of attack recharge, or limited by mana) - and then you have to make a decission, either - " stand around in enemy teritory getting hammered untill you can throw your skills again"; or " get the hell out of harms way and get your skills ready without loseing health" -- do the former and you'll be starting threads asking how to increase your surviveability; do the latter and you'll out survive every other class in the game.
