Summary: This is the highest original dps I have come up with. Using channeling as a damage and heal buff this build executes an unorthadox spike that will send even the toughest builds reeling. Here is how to use it-
-when there are about 10 seconds before the match is about to start use grasping was kurong
-wait at the back of your group until they attack, taking the attention away from you
-pick your target and hit the attack button, you will run straight up to them
-when your close use nightmare weapon, the close the rest of the distance
-drop grasping was kurong and immediately hit with falling spider, during the last bit of the knock down use ancestors rage for another 120 damage or so
-hit with vampiric assault, by now you will have healed over 150 hp
-use impale for the finish, if their still hanging on to life from a prot spell or something, finish the job with signet of toxic shock
-use rez immediately if teamate goes down so you can keep attention away from yourself
Notes & Concerns: This build can only heal while it attacks, so get back to your healing or make good your escape right after the spike. You can equip as many hp runes as you want so long as your energy stays at 35 or so (you don't need that much but thirty always cuts it close after the first spike). All in all this is an excellent addition to any team because of moderate survivability and a powerful and unexpected spike. dps is around 550-650 depending on the enemies armor in about 3-4 seconds.
-you should equip zealous daggers of defense with +15% damage while hp over 50%
Credit: I was inspired when I saw another player (can't remember his name) use grasping was kurong as a spike move and immediately went to work on an adaptation for an rt/assassin. This was the result.
