1) Shadow of Haste - lets you get in, dish out your combo, then teleport out without any loss of focuss on the fight.

while i don't use these next too, they would be in my bar if i didn't have beter skills from my secondaries there

2) assassins promise - nothing like being rewarded for killing a foe.

3) vippers defense - you wanna hit me? fine i posion you and disapear instead

1.Shadow of Haste(Best speedbuff for the assassin imo due to the tele at the end)

2.Moebius Strike(Best used to chain up two duals)

3.Twisting Fangs(Lets face it, its the single most damaging nonelite and is almost required in an Assassins build)

Are you serious? That 100' is the radius of 2 aggro bubbles.

My Favorites are:
Sharpen Daggers
Critical Defenses
Twisting Fangs

Moebius Strike
Twisting Fangs
So many good skills, so the third, I'd have to go with critical eye, 7% +1 energy per crit is just awesome considering the energy hogs that assassins are.

1. Temple Strike (Not in PvP though)

2. Leaping Mantis Sting / Exhausting Assault (Can't choose, both awesome animations really! I guess Leaping Mantis Sting is a bit more practical)

3. Aura of Displacement (Argueably best Teleport skill)

Cool

1) Palm strike- Pure damage, is powerfull against both casters and tanks. This is also a good set up skill for attacks like death blossom (see #3)

2) Temple Strike- Both daze and blind, this is a killer to paladins as it screws with boh healing and attacking. This is also a good set up skill, and when combined with other skills that add conditions, it's a killer.

3) Death Blossom- This is arguably one of the best non-elite dual attack skills. Not only does it deal damage to every foe, but it deals that damage twice.

Then here are 3 more:

4) Dancing Daggers- You may think that the 8 or 15 earth damage is worthless, but then triple it. Then take into account that this counts as a lead attack. I am currently going to make a deadly sin build, and this is #1 on the list of skills.

5) Crippling dagger- That damn monk always running? Being chased down by a tank? simply cripple then run. This is anothe rfor that deadly sin build, and it seems so far to be good.

6) Dark Escape- Both a running and chasing skill. It's better than dash in that it lasts longer and doesn't seem to have many drawbacks.

And hey, why not 3 more for kicks?


7) Critical Eye- fun skill to have when you whant a crit barrager or just to land lots of crits.

8) Way of perfection- This, coupled with crit eye, can make a good self heal sin. As most people have pretty good points in SA, this can last for a while and still heal you.

9) Critical Defense- Not my most favorite, but it comes in handy when you are going 1v1 with a tank and need to keep his favorite attacks from landing.

1 + 2. shadow of haste and shadow form combo for the same time consumption for the spells allowing you to be invincible for 17 seconds (for me) and tele out with ease.

3. death blossom
