[edit] Equipment

  • Nightstalker's Armor
  • Minor critical strikes rune, minor shadow arts rune, superior dagger mastery rune, rune of attunement.
  • Any daggers work here, but because of the high dagger mastery the build requires, Shiro's Blades are my favorite to use with this build.

[edit] Usage

This build is for getting in, hurting someone very bad, (poison, blinding, bleeding, deep wound) and getting out before they realize what has happened. Not like those builds that start several short combos, this build is for using a very long combo, stretching the limits of what an Assassin can do to a person before their energy runs out and they have to retreat. Shadowstep in using aura of displacement, use skills 2-6 in order (3 or 5 might be able to be skipped if you needed to for some reason) then release aura of displacement. If enemies are still following you, use dark escape to get away.

[edit] Counters

As usual blinding works wonders to destroy the performance of this build, but stances also work. If golden lotus strike hits, however, the combo is likely to be finished.
