Wonderful guide you have made here, though i've made a little cheap model of it since im poor as shit ;)


But do you prefer using ww on the Left side skill? or your right skill as all other skills?

Im using it at right skill atm since i believe its easier to chainlock that way, but i would like to know how you do?  :rolleyes:


ww should always be on your right side

left side is for dragon claw. i just took the s/s with ww on left to show both ww and trap damages

Would this setup work?

2/20fcr/visionary - @'s Circlet
Enigma
Fury GT 3LS / +2MB/ +2DF or Magic GT(?) 3Ls/fools "um/um" , how much ias do i need on the fools claw if i should get one?
Chaos GT 3LS / +2MB/ +2DF
Fcr ring Str/life/ar
Raven
Dancers
Highlords
Trangs
Arach

---65fcr bp
---48fhr bp

8*trap w/life
1*trap w/fhr

Prebo 9shadow skillers/3shadow amu/3shadow helm/2*shadow claws

Abit more trap based setup, but shouldnt this work pretty well? And isnt it overall great to have visio on the helm as a standard setup, exept when u want to stack res etc?
And one more question, why do you need wake of fire?

Thanks! Waiting for your answer!

you need to have a good rare claw

with fools mod 40ias, knockback and 2 soc

otherwise your attack rating would be too low to hit high defence characters

i use wake of fire if they start sorbing, its useful

watch your DR ! with a hl/arach setup you'll need to get a 2 sox helm with 2x ber to get the required fade lvl (without precast, which is 1. annoying to do and 2. mostly not allowed in gm duels)

also you should be wsm bugging your claws, that gives you more dmg and you'll need less ias to obtain the 9 fps trap laying speed --> use a chaos suwayyah and fury feral claws (fools 2 sox GT vs high def chars, such as hdin or smiter - ofc a nice rare fools RT/FC would be best if u can get one)

reason to get wof --> stun (a combination of 3 ls + 2 wof is considered to be best)

you shouldn't. (if you can mindblast in that situation that is)
any time you can actually catch a namelock it should be with mindblast.
however ph has autoaiming properties similar to df or foh, it can be used to kb an opponent slightly offscreen when you can't namelock with mindblast, it can kill some necros at 1 hp through bone armor, it also has other nifty things about it such as it does not cast without a target there, meaning you can hold down mouse2 in anticipation of an opponent teleporting near that spot, or you can use it to cast through desync since it will only cast when a target is within range. however, it does not have any kind of long term stun like mindblast swirlies give, and its just a one time knockback. so using ph can actually work against you in many situations, but it has it's applications.
its not a replacement for mindblast, mindblast is always better if you catch a namelock, mindblast gives the stun swirlies which cause traps to stunlock, mindblast is what you should be using on on-screen opponents. ph has limited uses but its a neat skill that every assassin has access to, so play around with it, but use it sparingly in srs duels.

its the other way around.... and this only applies for a ghost sin... 3x wofs and 2x ls = good stun

as for hybrids.... i usually use all 5 ls.... sometimes i throw in 1 wof but thats only against tricky and fast wsging opponents
