Here is my build I use for my assassin.

Profession: A/Mo

Name: Displacement of Purity

Type: PvE

Attributes:

Dagger Mastery : 14 (11+1+3)
Critical Strikes :11 (+1)
Shadow Arts:9

Skills
Critical Eye
Aura of Displacement {Elite} (no attribute)
Contemplation of Purity
Shadow Refuge
Golden Lotus Strike
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Resurrection Signet

Summary:
This point of this build is to shadow step to the enemy, attack and do damage, and then shadow step somewhere safe to heal. First, you cast Critical Eye to increase the chance of a critical hit. Then you cast Aura of Displacement to shadow step to target foe’s location ,and complete your combo of Golden Lotus Strike, Fox Fangs, and Twisting Fangs. If your lead attack misses or you are taking too much damage, cast contemplation of purity to shadow step to where you cast Aura of Displacement. And finally you cast Shadow Refuge to gain back health. When your health is back to normal and your skills have recharge repeat the combo again.

Notes & Concerns:
Certain skills like Critical Eye, Golden Lotus Strike, Fox Fangs and Twisting Fangs can be changed for other skills depending on the foes that will be fought. This build can be useful when fighting afflicted or for setting off traps because you can use Contemplation of Purity to remove Aura of Displacement to get rid of condition and escape from an afflicted explosion. The set of armor preferred for this build is the Nightstalkers as it adds +15 armor per piece while attacking, and weapons mods that increase health, armor, or energy are useful.
If the enchantment Aura of Displacement is removed before you remove it with Contemplation of Purity, you run the risk of a long recharge or being sent back into a bad position.

Heling breeze is meh. You'd be much better off dropping it for Shadow Refuge, and that way you can take some skill from Shadow Arts (such as the godly Dark Escape).

If your using TF you should use GLS, then fox fangs then TF else half of TF's effect will be useless (the bleeding)
