The entire sin class needs a rework in order to be balanced, and that is not going to happen in Guild Wars, maybe for gw2... but I wouldnt rely on it.

At siphon speed, I think it was overpowered for the simple reason that at low spec it was maintainable on 2 different enemies. Imo, reduce recharge such that it can be maintained on one person and its fine. No more putting it on 2 or 3 people, and ignoring effects like cripple.

I'll keep my 5e/15s (usually), kthx. Unless there's a significant duration increase at lower DA spec, of course.

If Shadow of Haste's Recharge gets lowered to 30 seconds, the issue that was had before with it comes back.
As the Assassin becomes almost unpunishable.

Was looking to see how people Think...I'll change the skills in a bit.

can we add black lotus strike to the list.

it needs to be buffed to be the exact opposite of golden lotus strike. Right now it has the higher initial cost of 10 energy, and has a longer recharge of 12 seconds.

Make it cost 5 energy, 10 sec recharge.

I somehow doubt that it's going to see use outside of SF Green Farming.

Oh, and Ensoriki, you might want to check out the "Balance A Skill" thread in OT&A.

yes. that, or turn it back into an offhand.

unfortunately, the cooldowns of all the good hexes to initiate it were nerfed.

[mirrored stance] doesn't work out too well. It helps defend against Rangers, that's kinda cool. But you're not going to gain much by copying a Monk's [defensive stance] or a Warrior's [frenzy].
