Optional slot may be filled with deaths charge for chasing running targets, healing, or spiking an unsuspecting target.
Other good choices could be Unseen Fury if you intend fighting enemies that tend to block at a high rate or Heart of Shadow for a quick heal.
[edit] Equipment
- Any max defense armor with radiant insignias.
- Two sets of silencing or crippling daggers. One set with Strength and honor, and one with Vengeance Is Mine to provide maximum damage at any time.
[edit] Usage
Activate Way of the Lotus before entering combat. This sets you up to be able to use your combo without stopping to wait for any energy to build up.
Use the entire chain of attacks from left to right on the skill bar. Activate Leaping Mantis Sting early if they begin to run, followed by jungle strike and whichever dual attack you prefer.
If another player begins attacking you midway, finish your next dual attack and run to prevent dying due to your low defense assassin armor.
[edit] Counters
Blindness prevents you from hitting them with temple strike to prevent them damaging you. Kiters and Cripples may also present a problem as you cannot get close enough to do any damage before they take down a major part of your hp.
[edit] Variants
Replace Horns of the Ox with Death Blossom for fighting mobs as oppose to single targets.
Replace Jungle Strike with Fox Fangs for fighting blocking foes.
