Default A/p?

I can't seem to find the thread but sometime back I remember seeing someone trying to put together an Assassin/Paragon build. If memory serves, it was some pretty hefty damage.

Hopefully I can stir someone's memory.

Only viable A/P build that I can think of is this:

[build prof=Assassin/Paragon DaggerMaster=12+1+1 CriticalStrikes=12+1 Command=3]["Find Their Weakness!"][Way of the Assassin][Leaping Mantis Sting][Jungle Strike][Horns of the Ox][Falling Lotus Strike][Blades of Steel][Dash][/build]

Did it involve multiple sins or just 1? I seem to remember a team build that ran 3 sins, 1 ran [Crippling Anthem], another; [It's just a flesh wound!] and another; [The power is yours!] with chains similar to the one above, add trampling ox > horns of the ox.

Jaded, are you thinking of a spear wielding paragon? CritSpear?

Something like this

[barbed spear][maiming spear][blazing spear][critical agility][critical defenses][critical eye][way of the master]

You could always try something like:

[Vicious Attack][Blazing Spear][Cruel Spear][Pain Inverter][I Am The Strongest][Critical Eye][Way Of The Master][Critical Agility].

Not entirely sure how it would work DPS Wise, but you can always replace/ change Skills, E.G:

[I Am The Strongest] for [Asuran Scan],
[Pain Inverter] for [Asuran Scan] or [Spear Of Fury],

Or replacing for something to add more utility and replace one of the PvE Skills with [Critical Defenses].

Also, as mentioned above you can also spec into Motivation/ Command for other elites to provide more party support.

Lots of different options to try, just have a play around and see what works best .

Edit: I'd run

12+1+1 Critical Strikes,
12 Spear Mastery.

Although this does lose the benefit of 8 armor from your shield.

The build looks alright, but the damage seems pretty weak. Also, deep wound is applicable in several ways and a critical hit with a spear isn't really all that great. You're better off with a CritScythe, but hey, do whatever tickles you. (;

[assassins promise] looks kinda wasted there.
