If you dont have death blossom, for spamming Palm->DB when the main combo recharges, i'd stick with BoS. Shorter recharge makes pwn. For that, i'd take impale, even at low spec.

So..yea..palm strike is sooooo overpowered...I farmed me like 20 glad points in RA today just whoring the same build over and over.

I've been using a variant on Moriz's original build. Disrupting Dagger works nicely against Guardian/WoH and Natural Healing as a secondary Derv is a good as it works under Shadow Walk. Wondering if perhaps Natural Stride would be a better IMS/Block than Dash with Troll Unguent. Not so much instagib but better survivability. So many choices.

Now I know rolling your head can be quite a skillful endeavor, and that the skill is quite unappreciated.
However,More skillful in comparison to what? Dirt?

In comparison to other palm strike builds.

IAS is a complete waste. COMPLETE WASTE.

The point of IAS is to spike fast enough to prevent them from being able to heal/prot/etc.

Any monk that isnt brain dead will have a prot up before you can even get off palm strike.

IAS is barely barely usefull for the rest of the chain, but going /w is too big of a sacrifice for a tiny tiny gain.

You're logic is flawless.

That would depend more on the intended arena and how well the player utilizes the bar. In AB a selfheal helps quite a bit although Restful doesn't function under Shadow Walk. If the player can use an interrupt well then Disrupting Dagger could stop a Guardian and cause more damage than an attack skill that would be blocked could. Mending Touch would work quite nicely in place of Purge and would work better against a blindbot.

IAS are mostly Stances, which is why they don't feature on my PS bars - [shadow walk][palm strike] is kind of addictive.

A/W for [wild blow], btw.

Super Igor · Dec 24, 2008, 12:04 PM // 12:04

<3 [wild blow] and [shadow walk], sins without jumping are sad akthough no ias is sad too thats why I like [wastrel's collapse] more. :<

craigrs84 · Dec 24, 2008, 04:58 PM // 16:58

Here's what I've been running in arenas lately. It's very effective against stance monks.

Dash
Palm Strike
Flurry
Wild Blow
Trampling Ox
Falling Spider
Blades of Steel
Resurrection Signet/Critical Defenses

8 second recharge chain that leads with unblockable stance removal FTW. Use an extra Palm Strike in between chains to finish off your enemies.

Super Igor · Dec 24, 2008, 09:45 PM // 21:45

what are you doing against guardian? =/

Bobby2 · Dec 25, 2008, 12:17 AM // 00:17

[palm strike][shattering assault]

Obviously

Your not good enough to have 2 elites yet.
All dedicated assassins have 2 elites.
The greatest assassins have 3.
...I have 2.
Anyways we generally dont use 2 because simply it's overkill.
