So I just learned about spell/ability combos. I usually pass on knockout bomb and sleep powder but now that I know it primes detonations I think I should try it out.
So if I put someone to sleep can I use shadow strike afterwards and do a combo?
Can I do the same with hidden blades? What 8 skills should I pick as an assasin? The only two I absolutely need is the hook and stealth.

Doing so would only do a basic combo, which isn't nearly as strong. Its ideal to let other classes break the sleep with their own detonators.

 

I find evade superior to hook. I could never find a use for the hook, I can't dodge attacks with it. Evade does 300% damage when they hit your shadow, and it can be used to close in on enemies and evade pretty much everything the game can throw at you.

evade upgrade is VERY bugged though

I use evade for bosses and it has saved me many times but hook and tackle lets me cover ground faster and opens opens with an attack. It costs no stamina and no cooldown.

he gives a bit advice a bit about how to use to

Awesome build video. Will have to check out his other stuff

[teks]

It is, though evade will dodge most things mid animation. The only time it wont is when you evade the wrong direction, or are stuck in the middle of another abilities animation.

No builds with knockout bomb? It's a rogues only primer right?

Get all assassin except cloak of shadows, Twinfangs+, flank attack+, death blow+, Looked like it hurt and cheap shot, Stealth+, threat reduction. All utility slots go for dex ( great bear leather), all leather offence slots go for crit chance ( great bear leather).

 

When you have points to spare get first blood and pincushion from archery and yes they work with dw daggers as well. Your daggers will give you all the crit chance you need so go nuts and socket for dexterity on an assassin, and if metal offence always socket attack.

only thing i stacked to gear was Dex & range defense & magic defense, 1 of the defenses or both (& i mean for full set), don't remember, my rouge is assassin to, for assassin u need only Dex, for Tempest i believe u need balance, example Dex 50 & cun 30, 35 or 40, cause what good is cun if ur attack is low? what if ur crit misses the target?, it was random example cause i don't know how much dex & cun rouge will have at the end with out gear & with gear, maybe its good to skip some skills from ur dagger tree to get some passives from ranged tree to get bit extra cun so u can stack more to Dex, if there is spare points to spare for it

I have tried going with knockout powder and mercy killing but I'm not sure if im getting the combo off.
I hook into range and use sleep powder. Then cloak and shadow strike (which will be a crit due to mercy killing) and I'm not sure if anything happened. Is there some animation or something? That should be a basic combo right?

[Biotic Flash Kick]

the numbers would be bigger

almost 'caps lock'

[zeypher]

Mercy killing not needed, with my setup you easily get 50% crit chance which is more than enough, knockout bomb companions will not attack your knocked out targets and it does not break stealth. So stealth use the bomb to put a couple to sleep take out the guy via twin fangs who is not asleep then you can just death blow 1 by 1 from flank the guys who as asleep. Since death blow is a detonator you get death blows first hit, the detonator going off which gets the mob to <50% and it does its second blow to finish off the target.

 

I recommend trying to get hand on lurker fade touched, the 75% movement speed increase in stealth is nuts, and since a DW assassin gets to go in stealth extremely quickly this fade work allowed me to dart around the field very well.

cloak of shadows is bugged, once u attack ur out of stealth, but it says u can stay on stealth while attacking

[samb]

Thanks zephyr. I have not gotten that master work material. So use knockout bomb and kill the non sleeper. Then death bow the sleepers?

[zeypher]

Yup, death blow, twin fangs and hidden blades are detonator. Yup hidden blades is a precision eldrich detonator. Try it, on a sleeping target hidden blades will also do a spirit damage detonation.

[teks]

Wow thats awesome. Great info.

[Gunslinger01101]

Mark of death, stealth, hidden blades. End of line.

u don't need it if u become deadly killer, just dex, u live most of ur life in stealth & jump out to kill, to 1 hit them, so its not necessary
