Revision as of 22:50, 19 March 2017

Assassins in speedclears always take the role of tank or terra using Shadow Form.

Armor

Standard Armor

Assassin standard armor uses 5x Blessed insignas, a shadow arts headpiece with superior shadow arts rune (+1+3), a superior vigor and 3x runes of vitae (30 hp) or attunement (6 energy). Health is better for general tanking, expecially in DoA, while energy is preferred on FoW terras.

You always want an extra "high hp" headpiece with a minor shadow arts rune (+1+1) for a 75 hp boost.

You may want to have an extra piece of armor (not headpiece) with a superior dagger mastery rune to swap to meet the req on your daggers on terra roles.

Armor vs Type

Assassins have access to the profession specific insignas which provide +10 armor vs physical and an additional +10 vs each physical damage (Piercing, Slashing, Blunt). It may be worth having an extra set of armor with one of those if you decide to focus in some specific role. Those armors will have the same runes as the standard one, and all Insignas replaced:

  • Infiltrator's (+10 vs physical, +10 vs piercing) for Gloom (DoA) as Trench Tank and Cave (FoW) as T2 (FoW) or T4 (FoW)
  • Saboteur's (+10 vs physical, +10 vs slashing) for tanking Wolves in Urgoz
  • Vanguard's (+10vs physical, +10 vs blunt) for tanking abyssals in FoW as MT
Area Domain of Anguish Fissure of Woe Urgoz The Deep Shards of Orr Catacombs of Kathandrax Rragar's Menagerie Slavers' Exile Frogroots Frostmaw
Role MT Trench Tank MT T2 T4 tank sinway WotA A/P A/N tank gater tank tank sinway
Blessed armor [1]
Saboteur's armor
Infiltrator's armor [2]
Vanguard's armor

1. ^ In T2way, Blessed is good anywhere but forge.

2. ^ Infiltrator's can be nice for doing cave, but is definitely not required.

Weapons

  • Sword/Axe/Spear of Enchanting with "I Have the Power" as your main weapon. It must be a sword or axe for DoA tanking and Main Tank (FoW) in T2way, and it must be a spear for T2 (FoW).
  • Insightful Earth Magic Staff of Enchanting with "Have Faith" as your high energy set.
  • Flatbow of Enchanting for pulling.
  • Customized Vampiric Daggers of Enchanting with a +15% w/ench inscription for damage.
  • Zealous Daggers of Enchanting with "I have the Power" for energy.
  • Zealous Scythe of Enchanting with "I have the Power" for energy.
  • Zealous Spear of Enchanting with "I have the Power" for energy.

If you play T2 (FoW) you want to have a Silencing mod (+33% daze duration) on one of your martial weapons (Dagger, Bow or Spear) to cast Technobabble.

Area Domain of Anguish Fissure of Woe Urgoz The Deep Shards of Orr Catacombs of Kathandrax Rragar's Menagerie Slavers' Exile Frogroots Frostmaw

enchanting one-hand
enchanting staff [11] [11] [11] [11] [11] [11]

3. ^ If you have no energy problems in Kath, vamp daggers will improve your DPS.

4. ^ Zealous daggers are only used for re-gaining energy at Fendi.

5. ^ In Frostmaw's, zealous daggers are only used by the A/N.

6. ^ Flatbow is only useful to T2/T4 for pulling wolves when they are in an awkward spot.

12. ^ In DoA, a spear should only be used for auto-attacking the monk lord. Do not use a spear while pulling Tormentors!

11. ^ HSR and other staff mods can be somewhat useful, but are absolutely not required.

Shields

Along with your main weapon, you want a shield of devotion with one of the following inscriptions:

  • +10 vs Demons such as Aegis of Aaaaarrrrrrggghhh for DoA tanking
  • +10 vs Piercing for Cave in FoW
  • +10 vs Slashing for tanking Wolves in Urgoz, Shadows and Skeletons in FoW

7. ^ Demon shield is only useful in the Deep for running past onis and Kanaxai Aspects.

8. ^ Slashing shield is only useful in FoW for tanking Skeletal Berserkers and Shadow Warriors.

9. ^ Titans do not count as demons for the purpose of a shield, so +10 vs earth is effective against them.

10. ^ In T2way, lightning shield is effective against Skeletal Icehands and Spirit Shepherds.
