I see a lot of people shoot down assassin builds and say add hoto and falling spider, especially as an AB combo. Personally hoto sucks in AB terribly. I mean, the point is to capture shrines and hoto won't knock them down at the shrines when there surrounded by people. There are better combos for AB besides this that excede the hoto falling combo in AB. Just wanting to get a little point across, sorry if this is a little "overboard". ok thanks for anyone who reads this and agrees, or who wants to prove me wrong. Thanks again.

Assassins usually target lonely characters, not big groups of people which makes a Horn of the Ox-Falling Spider combo really good. A more reliable combo would be Shock-Falling Spider or Siphon Speed-Black Spider strike-Twisting Fangs.

well...i meant that you can't cap a shrine with this combo, mainly because all but 1 shrine have at least 2 npcs you have to kill.

The point -.- is trying to make is that assasins using these skills usually have nothing to do with capping. They run the map with sprinting skills and pick of other solo players. (such as fire eles who can cap solo)

Hey that's what I do with my assassin, I some times do some solo caps. I find that triditional assassin dagger attacks are not that great, I combine my attacks with deadly arts skills, like signet of toxic shock and impale.

This is my main build at the moment:

Lol I once made a solo ele that could kill several melee chars alone (and die from poison moments later)...it was fun since one of the games 75% of the enemies were A and W.

Also ranged A is pretty funny too

- you see a skinny guy with staff. WTF?

He hits you with staff and you are really amazed cus he covers the staff min 9 req. :P

then dont solo cap with your sin, isnt Ab supposed to be designed 12vs12 and each team is divided into 4

uhuh, I often take one along to kill squishies like mesmers/monks/eles really fast. these little buggers get nasty if not dealt with fast. NPC's are just killed in 1/4 of the time any assassin can kill them by my ele, saves time
