Equipment for assassins[ | ]
Radiant armor
One set of Furious Daggers of enchanting with +5 energy mod, one set of Vampiric Daggers of Enchanting with +15% damage ^50% health, or +5 energy mod.
Usage of assassins[ | ]
Keep Locust's fury up. use flurry while attacking. use hexes as needed. use crit defenses if under attack (this can be kept up indefinately if allowed to attack). Use Vampiric daggers while attacking for 10 life stealing per second.
Lay famine down. While it is recharging, keep serpent's quickness on. to prevent interruption of Famine or the Ghostly Hero's Claim Resource, use Song of Concentration. Use pin down to snare targets that an assassin may call.
signet of weariness may be replaced with a skill of your choice.
Necro Usage[ | ]
Barbs and MoF are to be used on an assassin's called target, while the necromancer's own energy denial is to be used on another target (with the exception of Malaise, which may be spammed on an assassin's target to deal 50 damage a casting.) Blood Ritual is to be cast on Monks if they are in need of energy.
Make sure that your target is under attack from melee foes before casting SV or AV
remember to bring a +enchant weapon set.
try not to use Wep of warding with visages, due to blocking. this spell may be switched with another weapon spell.
Call energy when low for blood ritual.
Expel Hexes may be switched with Revealed Hex, and you may put points into inspiration for that. Then switch one of the restoration spells for an elite one.
one visage may be switched out for a healing spell, if there are fewer melee users around. Switch points from illusion to spawning power in this case.
Counters[ | ]
Anti-Melee that is not swiftly remedied
anti-spirit skills
Notes regarding to obvious weaknesses[ | ]
Read these notes. they may sway your opinion of this build.
the survival of the famine spirit[ | ]
Famine does deal damage, but in pulses. The spirit will be alive for at least 10 seconds against the average team, during which it will deal around 100 damage. If not killed, your assassins will destroy the opposing team with pressure.
Lack of damage?[ | ]
there is a lot of damage in this build apart from famine. barbs adds 32 DPS if the hexed foe is under the attack of a sin, and the sins themselved deal 20-40 dps with high attack and crit rate. (this has been tested and proven). (Wither and) malaise add(s) a decent amount of damage also.
