Immediately cast Illusion of Weakness before doing anything else, and recharge. Before running into battle, cast Illusionary Weaponry.
When in battle, just attack normally. With Dagger Mastery at 15, you have a 30% chance to double strike, resulting in a total of 68 damage from IW. Due to the nature of daggers, you attack fast anyway, so you can do a tremendous amount of damage in battle.
Distortion - Use it when IW runs out, as it *should* allow you to cast IW without interruption from physical interruptions. It also can be used mid-battle to just absorb damage.
Dark Escape - This ends when you successfully hit with an attack. But wait! We're using IW! You -never- successfully hit with an attack. Keep this up as often as possible, and you'll take only half damage during its duration, as well as being able to rush towards the next target.
Caltrops - Used to stop those pesky enemies from running away.
Golden Lotus Strike - Every once in awhile, you'll get interrupted, so use this when IW wears off, as it is also a fairly decent way to accrue energy in the meantime. If you want to replace this with something else, go ahead.
Shadow Refuge - Your main source of healing, as well as a cover for IW. It only lasts for 4 seconds, but if you keep it going every 12 seconds, you can at least prevent removal of IW 25% of the time. Also, IoW will wear off sometimes, and should you recast it in battle, you can use it to cover IW as well.


Notes: Golden Lotus Strike is just my preference.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying assassin IW is totally useless, lots of the tele skills are helpful to get out of harm, but I'm just here to clear it up.

I sometimes have problems in catching other players to perform my combo and that´s why I need something efective, something that gives my assassin speed for time enough to pull my combo. Thanks

Or both?
