You are also forgetting the [Assassin's Promise][You Move Like a Dwarf!][Ebon Vanguard Assassin Support][Finish Him!] cookie cutter template.

PvE-Only Skills are overpowered too, I always tried not to use them.

You can try something with IAS + Conjure + [[Locust's Fury].

Or something with [[Golden Skull Strike] for bosses and another offhand-attack during the recharge.

There are still many not common Builds. I used to play something like that.

uhh, right. so 123434343 is boring to you but ctrl+1,2,3,4 or whichever number of skills is necessary to be spammed on a monster before it dies to discord is somehow less boring?

Not trying to flame or anything, just thought that seemed a bit strange.

yup, sorry to say its come to this but sins using their weapon of choice is really getting boring. assasscaster both pve and pvp are more appealing to me now...

i'm pretty sure caster sins are 123456 also.

The 123456 comment is often used to describe a build that is utterly rigid in nature, with no allowance for variation depending on circumstances.

assassins, by the nature of their rigid and inflexible attack combos, are such builds by default. caster sins are the same. trying the argue the point is futile.

[assassin's promise][you move like a dwarf][ebon vanguard assassin support][finish him!] is an x/a build so it doesn't really count as a asscaster/caster sin...

that said...caster sins are inferior to dagger sins and only ran because of "omg they keep blocking my attacks" or "omg you mean i have to walk all the way up the enemy to kill him?"

Not to mention just about every x/A does it better than A/x...
