This build is not favored by the
GuildWiki community.
The general consensus among users of GuildWiki is that this
build is not viable.
This build was voted unfavored for the following reasons:
|
This somewhat obvious build is a viable replacement for the
once-prominent BoA Assassin. Flurry reduces only the base damage from dagger
attacks, while leaving the bonus damage untouched. Flurry also has
the added benefit of being able to be maintained constantly.
[edit] Attributes and Skills
[edit] Equipment
[edit] Counters
- Standard Melee counters.
- Restore Condition will basically ruin a
spike of this build, it'll remove all of the conditions you have
put on the target and heal most of the damage dealt.
- Hex Breaker
will cause problems, as your initial 'Hex Jump' will be disabled,
leaving your combo in shambles unless you can cast both hexes in
quick succession.
- A well-used Contemplation of Purity.
[edit] Variants
- Horns
of the Ox is a common variant that sacrifices damage for a
knockdown, and can therefore replace Blades of Steel.
- Another Shadow
Step or an additional healing/defensive skill (such as Feigned
Neutrality) can replace the Resurrection Signet for Alliance
Battles or Competitive missions.
- Siphon
Speed can replace Expose Defenses as a backup hex to trigger
the attack chain, and to quickly escape.
- Impale can be used in
conjunction with different dual attacks (Horns of the Ox in
Particular).
- Death
Blossom can replace Blades of Steel.
- Assassin's Promise and Dark Prison can be used
as a more PvE or AB/CM oriented version.
