I myself am a assassin and deal a lot of dmg through AoD, thats called Kiting right?
only problem that I have is that I dont heal a lot... If I get attacked by a warrior I die 7/10 times, so does anybody has a idea on how to fix that?
Btw I'm a condition dealer (bleed, Poison) works quite well in combo with aod, just fly in use jagged strike then asp of entanglement and be gone that really works well on warriors (at least if there are no monks around)
there's the assassin blind skill, but that requires a lead attack.
i personally like critical defense. i slap it on myself before AoD in, which means that anyone trying to remove it will hit AoD first, which really doesn't do much to you.
