Though, unfortunately, I don't know what to say to help tweak or adjust your build D:

You got blocks somewhat covered, though getting a snare would be nice to have. Another thing is that you don't do a lot of damage, at least a lot of repetative damage. If you just focus on melee and bank on the fact that they will be blinded, maybe you can take out shroud?

x-x;; *doesn't know and it's almost 4 in the morning*

Just some thoughts. Could also have Critical Eye instead to help with energy maybe.

Snare eh? I'll see what I can scrounge up. I imagine caltrops may have to be a choice though. golden fox, wild strike, critical strike and add in caltrops. i'll see how that goes. as for shroud, its there mainly as a defense vs ranged attackers such as rangers and paragons not to mention any dervish that comes along while you're taking on someone else. but if you feel you can handle that then go ahead and remove it for something else because hey you have a monk usually. as for critical eye it could just be a waste of a skill slot here or it might not be. may help when critical strike hits and some other times but hey, we won't know until we try.

If things don't work i'll see what happens if I drop mystic regen for something else. its a bit dumb to put point into only one skill but hey who knows. or even better...

Just something I thought up. its a mediocre build at best and may have already been thought of but hey you never know. I might try this as well. time to experiment then...

Out goes Goldenlotus/wild strike, in goes GPS+ signet of malice? Less energy management, but you can remove conditions....

Very good redo here. and yes a single build can't have everything but hey this is quite a nice build redo. you'll have to act like a real assassin and sneak up on rangers to get blind on before they stance but hey.

hmm. if need be golden lotus can be removed but you will have less energy and will need to back out more but if you want damage. I'm thinking unsuspecting strike but that may be far too costly energy wise, what with twisting fangs, EDA and mystic regen. you could throw mystic regen on if you find trouble on yourself to give you more time to run. Or perhaps leaping mantis sting and jungle strike for damage and twisting fangs for a finish. not sure about where to place signet of malice though. if only in pve you could replace dash with signet of malice since monsters don't generally run from assassins, especially warriors. or if in aspenwood replace res sig with sig of malice.

We'll see what develops but so far its going better.

looking at my redo tho, GLS recharges too slow

if you want to become a true blind-bot sin, (which i dont advise cuz it is gay) use these attack skills instead...

[skill]golden fox strike[/skill][skill]jagged strike[/skill][skill]golden lotus strike[/skill]

basically TAB through every melee, inflict blind and bleeding, (golden fox if target already blocking... just jagged strike if not... it is 2 recharge now iirc), and golden lotus when you need energy. then TAB to the next.

no, you dont have an actual combo (LOL 3 lead attacks!) and no, you wont be able to kill anything but you will be fxxking annoying to both the melee and the monks trying to keep them clean. you'd be a party-wide 2-condition spammer

im bored

not to mention you'd confuse the living X out of the opponent who keeps expecting an off-hand then dual attack. makes him go suspicious. htis may be going a bit far but hey.(then again, when in combat you don't do much thinking there.)
