ok im hoping that when the ganking assassins are nerfed that this will take there place (not as gankors)
this ass has 2 knock downs it can kill a real! boon prot 1 on 1 witch builds should not be able to do ( if its a real boon protand he knows how to play 1v1 you should not be able to kill him, other then daze ranger or migrain mes)
this works on others other then monk of course.

dagger 16 sup and helm
deadly 5 minior
beast mastery 11
skills:
mark of instability
iron palm
falling spider
twisting fangs
Ferocious strike
cham animal
comfort/run as one
confort/rez sig/ w/e

ok start off with mark then iron palm and falling spider, when you click iron palm click Ferocious strike then falling spider, falling spider does +55 dam, so its kinda a spike( +35 from falling and 20 from iron palm). i usally let one attck in and then twisting fangs. by the time you twisting fangs he should be a about half heath.Then twisting fangs should kill him. twisting fangs does +30 (15+15) pet does about 15 and the 7 degen from bleed and pison should do some, its the deep wound that finishs him off. you might need 1 attck after twisting fangs + the 7 degen will catch up and kill also. on 70 armor and 80 armor you might need an other attack or two after to finish. Remember the pet is about 20 damage added to your aattck every 1.5 times you attack + about 45-50 dam if you use Ferocious strike. Rember that twisting fangs also knocks down because of the first hex.

one monk should fall from you only dual knock down + 55 dam from falling and Ferocious strike and +30 dam and deep wound and a couple attcks from pet and usally some attcks from you brfore and after.
Sometimes guardian is stupid and blocks everything but sometimes he doesnt use it on himself or its cool, and blocks like nothing.

down side is iron and the hex has a long comeback so its about a 10 sec down tiem inbetween kills,, BUT when your in your down time attack some1 that has been damage a bit, you attack witch hits about 15 an attack and 35 every crit' and double strikes also. then there your pet attacking witch hits between 10-30 normal and 40-60 with Ferocious strike. So its some nice DPS inbetween you down times. I have killed some peopel usally necros or eles by doing just this.
this is my petsin try it it really works you wouldent think so but it has massive damage out put and total SHUT DOWN

Moving this to GvG builds, since I think it's one of those.

You're saying this is going to be a ganker? You have no teleport or self heal (not even a Dark Escape) so you'll only be able to kill a few perimeter archers if you happen to have a thief. While it might be useful against solo monks if the other team is bad at preprotting, you'll also get spiked out very quickly because you're a low-AL target running around the enemy backline without a means of getting away.

Also you can't res your pet, so once it dies your entire build concept is screwed.

Could be a fun RA build though.

Umm...just out of curiosity, is this like the first assassin build you've tried other than a cookie cutter? There are loads of builds able to kill a boon/prot in a 1v1 easily. We've been slaughtering boon/prots left and right with KD + Spider + Twisting Fangs for a good month now.

...in fact, your combo (ignoring ranger skills) is completely identical to the one that I posted a few weeks back for use as a HoH smite assistance.

A problem that you may run into in gvg and hoh and just everywhere that there's an experienced boon/prot is that some of us are starting to carry distortion around with ~3 in illusion (reduced energy loss to -3e), which can be used while knocked down.

As for attribute points, why do you feel that you need 16 in dagger mastery with only one dagger attack? Not sure how much you've experimented with the actual combo, but with 0 in critical strikes you aren't going to be critting often and when you do crit, you aren't gonna recover much energy. Twisting Fangs is also complete crap as a finisher if you're not putting any points into critical strikes to get some use out of it.

If you're gonna use Fangs, you NEED critical strikes. A smart team could also really mess you up by killing your pet when they saw you use a hex (which in gvg is rather likely to happen).

and i have played most popualr assassin builds.

ok first my falt for gankor, i mean just rush the boon , second a good boon prot can take you if you use horns ect(so i gusse you only have played the monks in RA that make a monk to get some bath faction).. i can rez pet were its says charm/rez/w/e i meant comfort.. and you can through in comfort insted of dash and your can also try to trough in run as one.REZ PET IS NEEDED

Twisting is only really for the deep wound, your right about dagger 14 should do and add more to crit so you can hit hight then 15 for the dual attack.
Ferocious strike is there becasue you spike with it with twisting fangs(now twisting not falling) and if hes is at half heath he should die.

fangs is not used for damage but for the wound, at lvl 8 the wound lasts for 13 secs witch is long enough, but thinking i might want 2 more damage and for some more seconds out of it, reson dagger was so high, incresing the amount of points on DM increases the damage you do ( 14 DM now).
THERE IS A PET REZ OF COURSE YOU ARE GOING TO NEED A PET REZ

distortion, he can use lose about 15 energy(5 attacks, last 5 sec also pet attacks and DS's, so he really loses about 24 energy from this) anywho,,
if he uses it he can if he even has it or even the 5 engery to use it cause there should be a mes removing enchats from every1 mainly monk( so no recall)
