since you have a bit of long-recharging skills there [like iron palm], why not make use of assassin's promise of moebius strike?

i currently use the following set-up:
impale
BLS
assassin's promise
twisting fangs
iron palm
falling spider
shadow refuge
rez sig/free slot

on soft targets like the kirin outside maatu keep, i usually start with promise then iron palm then falling spider. if it's still alive, then go impale > BLS > TF. for hardier targets, i tend to save AP so it can recharge my attacks. usually it's just impale > iron palm > falling spider > [AP] > twisting fangs.

the nice thing about this build is that it has 2 separate attack chains that can fulfill different tasks, depending on the situation.

and i never run into energy problems. i have 29 energy and am using shreader's talons [for the additional damage vs hexed foes]. never did i run out of energy. i'm gonna try a /mo variant, dropping shadow refuge and rez sig for protective spirit and shielding hands, an idea i got off from the other forums.

I've been tweaking the build and changed it a bit (Still in PvE)

So I went with this

Impale
Palm Strike
Black Lotus Strike
Twisting Fangs
Shadow Refuge
Recall
Death's Charge
Blank

Dagger -11
Deadly - 12
Shadow- 5
Crit - 13

Anyway I found that it's roughly 150-180 dmg with bleeding and deepwound for 18 seconds The dmg isn't too close to the original BUT the time to redo this combo is shorter.

Okay so at 25 energy you will need the zealous daggers.

So say you already cast recall and at 25 eng.

Start off with Impale of course (20)
-Palm Strike! (10)
Black Lotus Strike! (0 -> 18)
-Then Twisting (8)

While attacking you will gain energy so you can either escape, death charge to the next target (with out argoing anything else beyond the first group) Shadow heal or if the target isn't down yet keep wailing cause Palm Stike will be done recharging anyway (same with impale) so you can do the combo nearly after your done with the first.

The 25 second recharge on Black Lotus is mean but once you're all set up you won't even notice the skill is done either way.

For those who want AoD could replace the palm with unsepecting strike =P or with Iron Palm still.

I just find that Iron plam is just ridiculous with the recharge. If it were 15 I wouldn't complain. Plus AP isn't too reliable in PvE when you try to target the next foe but keep missing the chance to cast it just to recharge all the skills.. waste of time to actually do something to me.

Actually if you wanted you could add Iron Palm to the blank and use it for the first combo and then go for the second one when it's recharging.. but that's too much shifting and time (eng) to put into one skill.
