there's some pve application I have in mind and if I come up with anything overly useful I'll post it - it certainly works more in a pvp setting in general, have some ideas with diff 2ndary

I love the build idea, cant wait to try it. This build is the definition of assassin, even without daggers. Hit and Run FTW.

Virulence + Assasins = the best elite an A/N can use in many situations (im A/N too and have a build with a skill slot just waiting for me to round droks

)

Ummmm, I'm kind of new to the assasin, but I do know one thing, the max degen is -10 HOWEVER, if there is a monk nearby that does a +9 regen healing breeze, then the -20 degen will be "VERY" helpful. Also, I wouldn't suggest this in PvE, there isn't many monks around so stick to a SS. Stay out of the fight and keep the PvP guessing. <()> Once I put a all SS team togeather, First thing I do is to cast a spell interupt spell on the monk, while the monk is trying to cast spells and is just killing himself, my other SS'ers and touch ranger took out the warriors/nukers/SS'ers. My job was to make sure the monk can't heal, my other two team members job is to take out the tanks and nukers, and the touch ranger made sure the team can't attack at all. (throw dirt and other skills) We won a title (50 matches) and then we gave up cause our fingers were tired. (<>) In conclusion, This is a killer PvP'er but a SS is a "little" better in PvE

It's not actually -20 degen, it's -10 with an additional 20 damage per socond (the equivalent of -10 degen) from Shameful Fear. This build is awesome, surprising, and quite fun.

Fluffy hopefully you've already figured out what you missed out regarding Degen. And then no-one suggested PvE here except me, and I'm *tinkering* with some ideas for shameful fear in PvE and some aspects of this build [a/ or /a]. Ele and mesmer, even monk (!) are also fun options to consider.

I want to do more testing though (particularly with the monk idea), and of course the nature of PvE is there are normally a lot of moving targets, this is a better nasty kiting build with focus on few, if not one enemy.

It'd have awesome application in games like EQ, but here you'd have to pick and choose useful targets in general. So I'm not sure if it'll end up a practical build or not.

I just had an idea, since monsters run from AoE nuking like rain of fire and shower, then put shameful fear on selected monster you want dead, and if he runs he gets hurt, if he stays he gets hurt, nice little snare.

arredondo got myself a glad point the other day in random arenas using this. Anxious to get my friend to roll a frag mesmer in TA as was suggested. Awesome build :]

yes i realize this post is a few months old
