Question Assassin needs a lil help here

Maybe I'm retarded or something but it seems like in RA I'm always getting pwned by warriors but I cant find any good combos to fit in while still containing some healing skills and of course the lovable res sig but if I'm not completely retarded I was hoping at least someone could help me out here.

My current setup:

Leaping Mantis Sting
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Shadow Refuge
Critical Eye
Death's Charge
Dark Escape
Res Sig

Dagger Mastery-16
Critical Strikes-10
Shadow Arts-10

If a warrior starts hitting you, start kiting. Your particular skills wont allow you to go toe-to-toe with a warrior. Bring Return in place of Death's Charge, its prohibitive recharge makes it a bad skill for initiating attacks as well as escaping.

If you're having too much trouble, Blinding Powder is a reasonable option for RA. You can swap out Critical Eye for a defensive skill (or an attack skill), you shouldn't be having any problem with energy with the combo you use. Its effect on DPS is only appreciable if you're going to be auto-attacking the same target for some time.

A longer, more disabling chain can also help you take down unassisted warriors in RA. Anything involving Horns of the Ox + Falling Spider + Twisting Fangs deals a large amount of armor ignoring damage, applies deep wound and degen (which is more significant in RA than anywhere else).

imo if your not gonna use AoD {E} you should use something like Critical Defenses + Wild Blow (when needed) to keep up a nice defense... another option is to use Flashing Blades {E} ... Warriors will hardly be hitting you
