Default Assassin build involving Locust's Fury [e]

[card]Locust's Fury[/card][card]golden fox strike[/card][card]wild strike[/card][card]nine tail strike[/card][card]golden phoenix strike[/card][card]critical strike[/card][card]critical defenses[/card][card]critical eye[/card]

Use what you want, basically. Change out critical eye for deadly paradox, way of perfection, or res sig. Your choice. This build is just meant for continious anti-melee pressure. No heal, but you never hit low energy. I use it alot in HB, but just tell me what you think of it.

Replace [card]Locust's Fury[/card] with [card]Moebius Strike[/card].

And possibly toss in [card]Death Blossom[/card] while you're at it.

[card]Locust's Fury[/card][card]Flurry[/card][card]"Watch Yourself!"[/card][card]"Fear Me!"[/card] for heroes , replace WY with [card]"Save Yourselves!"[/card] if used by a human player.

can't think of another use for LF rather than this.

He didn't say to use SY on a hero. GG reading?

Anyways I haven't found much use for Locust Fury after it got changed from critical hits to double strikes.

Locust's Fury is doing jack all for you here. With the recharge times on the chains, you never have to stop using attack skills.

Overall... /faceplam

The trick to LF is either by using lots of damage buffs (Conjure Flame works nicely if you're not planning on using a team build), or exploiting the high adren/energy gain by using skills like Brawling Headbutt or some sort of high energy spammable skill. Otherwise, it's pretty meh, especially if you use attack skills, as double strikes only trigger on non-attack skills. But really, run what you want, especially in PvE, and don't let these forum people tell you something's bad.

Actually it's acting as his enchant for golden phoenix strike. Other than that...

If the goal is to use Locust's Fury, then I'd suggest something with an IAS and that functions completely on the attacking, not attack skills.

It's a good elite for me. Although, if they changed it to 33% IAS, that would be awesome

Locust's Fury is bad. If only because there's so much that's so much better than it is. At pretty much everything.

Uhh, if you ever read the skill description, it has a 50% increased chance TO make any attack (skill or normal attacking) double strike. :P Throw in Critical Eye (15% Crit), 15 Critical Strikes (15% Crit), that throws in 30% chance to crit, and double striking. Now, tell me that doesn't own. I don't have to worry about a thing when I'm using it. Tbh, I face alot of people in HB and win. (And for you smartasses, the people are not noobs) >.>

It's still a bad skill.

The old SP sin would destroy you, and so will the current KD sins.

i don't think that locust's fury is a bad elite at all , its just weak if you see other elites like shadow prison and moebius strike.
it's just that it's pretty hard to make a build around it , since it shouldn't be used with attack skills , it's like an elite to make an "utility sin" , something similiar to the build that i have posted here
