Hey Everyone!

I’m a lvl 44
Shadow/Assassin. I’ve been dedicated to the assassin tree since day one
and started using shadow because of its awesome combat roll outs. My
question is; what’s the best buffed gear for an Assassin to do the most
damage. Lots of Stealth Damage or other things like CT or Regens. I’ve
tailored my skills to an art and felt I had pretty good gear but I was
told eitherwise that I could do a lot more damage with the right gear
but this guy was my target all night and he left it at that. I’m
looking for something that would take me over the top. Any clues would
be greatly appreciated.

Well of course you could always use some additional stealth damage.  However, given the already very large amount of damage that assassins perform, you may be better off focusing your buff on other things.  I'm not too familiar with the shadow tree, but sometimes run a knife / assassin.  With knives of course you'd be thinking about your RCT.  Though as far as assassin / shadow, i'm not quite sure what your tactics would be with that loadout.  I would suggest though some gear that'll buff your analyze weakness for a better chance of it working.


Thing is, that from what I understand, that concealment detection right now is broken......which sucks, but for an assassin that is a very large advantage, and allows you to focus your buffing on whatever areas you think are neccessary for your particular tactic.....ie, dr, vd.......maybe mct to try to finish off an opponent in IL (<--not terribly likely on that one though).

Thanks for the tips I've been working on getting items that buff IS
regen.... It allows me to recharge my stealth abs quicker so that it
could be possible to to a bulldog twice in a very short about of
time... i.e. only leaving the cooldown period since my IS have been regen'd.
