Heck I will be even so nuts to meet you in GW and follow you and see it with my own eyes!

Blind Rage · Aug 31, 2006, 04:18 AM // 04:18

okay, once again to clarify, I am placing a wager that you ( must be a picture from you) cannot solo the full cave area that a 55 monk normally pulls. the picture must show your party list ( to prove your alone ) your skill bar, your health, the attribute window, all the trolls MUST BE dead at your feet, not scattered away from you when they die.

IF you can do that, and use the exact build you said "works" then i will hand you 20k in game and issue you an apology.

Tall order Blind Rage. Though I have my doubts he will take you up on your offer.

Youre trying to use assasins major damage to make up for smite monks damage. Without a combo assasins damage isnt enough, i use normal 55 skills and shadow form and do uw with guildie ss all the time.

If youre running into energy problems then revise your build. I farm a lot of stuff with a 55 sin and never have energy problems, once i get down to one or two guys, mending keeps me alive, all i need is PS.

I have a friend that runs ss/sv uw with me and I tried my assassin out down there. We did okay but I ran in to serious energy issues especially after using shadow form. Basically I'm just trying to think of what you did for energy management. I of course have the standard prot spirit/mending/healing breeze/balth spirit/shadow form. I'm not sure how I should fill out the other 3. Any suggestions?

(edit) forgot to put essence bond in there, that basically fixed me.

sorry, i cant accept ur wager, as i deleted my sin to stop the video shit and all that. but if anyone has an A/Mo try it out and we split the 20k 50/50 cos its my build. and btw, Zealots ISNT the main dmg, the main is from SoJ

Blind Rage · Sep 04, 2006, 10:12 AM // 10:12

lmao, how is it even your build? you just made a post filled with guess work and expected it work, good work, you embarrased yourself and the assassin class, now would be a good time to uninstall.

Any secondary monk can 55, but with 8 in smite, you may as well just wand stuff to death.

I recommend you actually test your 'builds' before submitting them for public discussion because... well you know what happens.

Bloodied Blade · Sep 07, 2006, 12:46 AM // 00:46

Ok, I honestly hate tanksin builds, but I'll give this a shot:

Firstly, please post a vid of this in action... I'm not 100% inclined to believe that you managed to do UW (which the 'with enchantment removal' part implies to me) solo with an assassin 55. For your damage combo, I would reccomend a different combo if you're going to be using Zealot's Fire. Instead of Iron Palm, try using Jagged Strike. This will let you (with Asp) place -7 degen on a target (14 damage per second). If you don't want to use Zealot's Fire for its marginal damage (which it is at 8 smite), you could try Death Blossom, which allows for more pure dmg.

Just a few things to consider- your current build has an optimum energy of 32 (unless you use +energy daggers, which are only +5), assuming full Shrouded. 2 maintained enchants means that you regen 2/3 of an energy per second. Balthazar's Spirit will help tremendously with your energy, but only to an extent. You won't be able to compensate for many things that the 55hp casting builds can (i.e. catching a rend, refereshing something that got interrupted).

@Dark Tykane, zealous daggers would make a little bit of a difference, but mostly their greatest advantage is when used in a full combo (ex. for pvp in the GPS combo, which is still usable), usually generating 5-10 energy (enough for another chain in some cases, or a finisher using energy that you technically don't have).

@Guitary Boy, the idea behind using Zealot's Fire isn't covered often anymore (many people just use SoJ and ignore ZF), but if you only cast your enchants that set off ZF every 3 seconds it is not counted as an AoE and can be used effectively).

EDIT: @no damage tank, you mentioned earning 20k in one farm (definitely gonna be UW in order to defend the build) and also mentioned the use of SoJ as your main damage...
Shadow Form {e}
Shield of Judgement {e}

...I'll let you figure it out...

Hollerith · Sep 07, 2006, 03:02 PM // 15:02

No no no, the funniest thing is the OP never tried it; somewhere in the middle of the thread he said he's only lvl 14. The 20k refers to a bet that the build simply doesn't work... not even considering his claims that this can outdamage a 55 Mo build.

Lambentviper · Sep 20, 2006, 02:05 AM // 02:05

the thing i found most hilarious was that he yelled at a guy and called him a dickhead because he asked if we were supposed to use daggers for this.

The answer being immediate (and hateful) was "DAGGERRSS!!!!!"

well dumbass, tell me how you get 55hp with no -50 hp offhand. Please, PLEASE tell me....screw the vids...just tell me that.

2nd most hilarious: He was peer-pressured (over the internet, mind you) to delete his own character because he was scared of people chasing him down for videos and screenshots. Insecure, or crazy? Both? you decide.

joncoish · Sep 20, 2006, 04:39 AM // 04:39

Is it just me or is this no damage tank guy the most retarded person ever? He can't be any older then 10, by how he presents himself!

And since when does asking questions make you an idiot? Get a life dumbass!

Yukito Kunisaki · Sep 20, 2006, 03:22 PM // 15:22

I don't even play monk and I know this won't work...

Shield of Judgement without 16 in Smiting means that er... You're not doing maximum damage?

No Assassin can deal AoE armor ignoring damage efficiently as 16 Smite Monk... You've got what? Death Blossom?

Smite Monks will for me and anyone else who knows game mechanic, be the best 'invici-build' to be created and should only be that way.

The fact that invicibuilds work around an AoE armor ignoring skill is the only reason they work so well.

55 monk or 55 necro builds to me are the most efficient for such things...

moriz · Sep 20, 2006, 06:33 PM // 18:33

what happens when an assassin meets a mesmer? this happens:

sorry, i couldn't resist.

lol dumb pricks like u annoy me, i made up the build, its not guess work, its just an assasin using monk skills + a few sin skills, try it out and u will see wat i mean :P

PS. btw, its no way guess work.

no damage tank · Dec 09, 2006, 05:49 PM // 17:49

ok, lets clear something up, u could tank and deal dmg easily as a 55 sin, just using monk skills, but i wanted to add a few more dmging skills

1, i dont have death blossom
2, i didnt say it was best at dmg dealing, its simply a cheaper 55 monk that deals a bit less dmg, so there u got it, it works just as a 55 monk does, but just cheaper.

Proof. Make it yourself. Screenshots. After trying and failing, uninstall, thank you.
