wondering if a assasin using swords will work??

Katana for perfect ninja look

+ an icon for extra energy

and can you still use assasin skils while using swords( the skills with dagger mastery atributes..)

------------------

As/Mo

assasin using vicarous spirit means a big healing boost??

and vic spirit+mending+ zealos daggers.. mor defence and healing??

a/w - not sure swords, but i heard my friend pwns people doing crits with hammers. And, i dont agree assasins have such a great look.

A/mo - Well this kind of combination is nice, but only for griffon farming(if we find a good blocking skill). Zealous daggers help gaining energy, but in pvp u will probably get shattered + even if u dont, ur energy will regain itself very slow. (well unless u got crit eye + 16 crit strikes, which i still think makes ur energy regenerate quite decent)

(I posted this on an old thread so maybe this will help a bit) This swd build faired pretty well when soloing mobs on Pongmei and outside Cavalon (as long as you do the hit and run method ;p ) And is a fun PvE build when supported by Henchies...

You basically put your pts in Swds (12) Crit (your choice) and Shadow (your choice)...

Tiger Stance (or For Greater Justice)
Sever Artery (minor degen)
Soon & Moon Slash (hits twice - one unblockable, one un-evadeable)
Dragon Slash (recharges adren)
Critical Defenses (52% blocking for 6 seconds and recharges on every critical hit made)
Death's Charge (Shadow Step to target foe - if target has more health than you, you get hp +100)
Dash (for quick get-aways)
Shadow Refuge (heal... used constantly)

The premise of this build is pretty simple... Adrenaline for offense, and Energy for Defense... Use tiger stance (or For Greater Justice) to quickly refill your adren and unleash your swd attacks... Dragon Slash to recharge your Adren yet again... Use Crit Def whenever recharged... Use Death's charge to further refill your hp (make sure the next monster you target has more health than you), and use Shadow Refuge CONSTANTLY (you'll never run out of energy ^.^) It's a decent PvE build IMO, but you're probably better off using daggers when doing PvP... I'm sure there are alot of improvements that can be made on this build... so please post them ^.^

Ill still stay with my opinion that his assasins clothes dont look lot of kung-fu ninjas, but if there will be(faction "fow" or 15k armor comparable) U would look quite... Cool

, actually not much diffrent from the ones from the factions trailer

. Just that build, if u wont happen to land too many crits, u may consider taking gash, silverwing slash, or final thrust.
