high dmg output assassian
tossing the idea in the air of a high dmg output assassian ok first is lotus its basicly a energy management skill, then wild to drop stances so next skill can hopefully hit many times, then repeating stab till you miss hopfully its a bunch of times, if you get low on life or you miss, assualt him with fangs for bleeding and that 20% drop in life from deep wound, hope it kills him, and to finish it off use moebius which deals a small spike of damage and may reset you bar though i feel your energy should have been depeleted by now, if so return to an allie for a quick heal, or a blood ritual, rinse and repeat. if any time during that period of attack you become beat on use refuge to evade 50% of all attacks and get a minor heal in 4 seconds, my advise is use it everytime its availible to keep life up and damage down. ok base dmg is 111 dmg plus dagger damage which is rather modest but im hoping for repeat to work several times to beef dmg output. aftrer looking at this build i see an energy issue my plan is wonderful but you would need a blood ritual or bip to keep up spamming attacks. hmm wonder if ranger expertise works with assassian skills can anyone answer that? wondering if a r/a would be more effective with 7 in expertise, not as many crits but better energy management.. i think. not sure till we try have factions to test it.

The build lacks a containment skill which could probably replace Res Signet if the arena is suitable... [aka 12v12]

But aside from that, I can agree that this build will hit pretty hard...

A high damage sin's build is hampered by possible defenses...

Conditions/hexes on yourself...
enchants/stances on your victims

Since you can't break enchantments, I'd suggest finding a way to send in Expunge Enchantments if you have the chance, if not, ask a teammate to break enemy enchants for ya...
