Well here it is: a nearly immortal assassin.

Proffession: A/Me

The Build:

1 Arcene Echo 15 energy reloadin time 30 sec
2 Shadow Form 10 energy reloadin time 60 sec
3 Arcene Mimicri 15 energy reloadin time 60 sec
Fil in the rest.

You need dagger of enchanting and another assassin for this to work.
I reccommend the shrouded armor, coz of the energy.

Not to put you down - but this build isn't anything new.

Indirect attacks will kill you.

I'm not sure why you are using Arcane Mimicry, unless you are talking about another Assassin with Shadow Form.

I wonder if Rangers ever bring Tranquility to the field.

Probably not.

Pick Me, There are NR/Tranq builds out there, so your point is viable.

OP, watch the spelling.

Common sense for the rest.

4 Deaths Charge
5 Shadow of Haste

Start with Shadow of Haste use deaths charge to get close 2 enemie arcene and then shadow use the combo ( against large group ) and use dark escape 2 get away

chilblains.
skills don't fail too, try vampiric touch on the second cast of shadow form.
there is no immortality in guild wars. otherwise, expect the nerf bat.

oh god... this build is AWESOME.

Because it makes Expunge enchantments useful.
I 1v1ed a friend of mine on our sins ~ I ran a Flashing Blades build, he ran Arcane Echo Shadow Form. I hit EE and he was at like 50hp. GG.

your current shadow form build is flawed as you dont have an immediate way out. Also you will have problems kiting ppl as well as having energy management problems. Also a shadow form sin only has enough time to take out either one or two high priority targets, so in AB this means MM's, ele's, rits, etc.

This is my current shadow form AB build

Golden Phoenix Strike
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Arcane Echo
Shadow Form
Dash
Shadow of Haste
Shadow Refuge / Caltrops

Depending on how im feeling, i either run with self heals or not. OFten I run with Caltrops just for the thrill of having no self heal. This build is perfect for AB giving one the ability to effectively take out MM's, air spikers, even noob tanks who like to use frenzy as their ONLY stance. This build gives me a way in to get to my target, the power to kill my target, and a way out of a bad situation, in fact shadow of haste is possibly one of the most useful skills in the game.

If you question dash then your a noob.

Dash > Shadow Hate > dash is the combo your looking for, im not going to explain anymore than that. Its the way i get out of bad situations

This build is supe reffective in AB, ive used it constantly for 2 weeks to see if anyone would bring any specific builds to counter it and ive only seen 2 constantly used builds that give everyone trouble. R/N Touchers and multiple flame bursters.

If you have the right equiptment and attributes set the right way, when you get the timing down shadow form can last you for up to 45 secs.

I have played in AB however with a guildy where we ran the duo shadowform builds and the max time we came up with that one can stay in shadow form is 1:55.

With nightfall this can actually be extended.
