Day 2

So Ive played about 4 hours on the Assassin today, and got him off the island, and i am now at Kaineng Centre. After digging deep across my other 7 characters i managed to cough up the 15 or so platinum for the total cost of the armour, i got:

Head: +1 Dagger Mastery
Chest: +15 AL while attacking (+15 Al as majority of melee hits, and All non projectile spells hit here)
The Rest: Shrouded (+ Energy) armour

Ive now got a set of darkroots daggers (Zealos, +30Hp, 15% enchant)

So far im at 75K Experiance (Level 14.2) . I have yet to do the second attribute quest (i cant really say im looking forward to it)

So Ive tried out the Recall+CoP Combo, and it Doesnt work, something to save for AoD i guess

So my build as of this moment:
11 Dagger
6 Shadow
9 Critical

Unsuspecting Strike
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Shadow Refuge
Critical Eye
Dark Escape
Recall
Rez Sig



So tommorrow i should be starting capping skills, I'll prolly be bringing along a guildie for a perma Prot Spirit at least until i hit Level 20

0/180 Skills capped, 1262500 Experiance to go

First Post

So i'm going for maxed Survivor title on my freshly created assassin, should be an interesting challange as assassins are notorious for being little more than Death Nova and Putrid Explosion fuel.


So far ive got to 37,385 XP (2K from Lvl 10) , and have the first of the 15 attribute quests, at the moment i am using the build:


9 Dagger Mastery
6 Shadow Arts
5 Crit Strikes
1 Prot Prayers

Unsuspecting Strike
Fox Fangs
Twisting Fangs
Shadow Refuge
Deaths Charge
Critical Eye
Prot Spirit
Mend Ailment

At the moment, i'm using a pair of Shreaders Talons, as they are the only pair of maxed damage daggers i own, and they have the convinent +30 Hp Mod


Ive been having a Quick Glance over the Assassin Skills, and i belive there could be a good synergy between Contemplation of Purity and Recall , Tap CoP and 1/4 Second later be teleported back to safety with a condition and a hex removed, pretty spiffy, will have to find out when i have access to them


So once i'm off the Island, i'll be starting capping all the elite skills, i'll be Seperating each skill into 5 categorys , Easy, Average, Difficult, Deadly, Suicide. Depending on how hard the elite is to cap

My IGN is Nacrax Aragoth, if you want to Offer a hand, or wish me luck ;)
