[13] Guild Wars 2 Builds - Thief - Assassin Cross - Dual Dagger & Sword/Dagger | PVE

By: Soul Step (Updated 7/7/2012)



(View Build)

Have you ever heard of the MMORPG, Ragnarok Online (RO)? Then you must know what the Assassin Cross is! This build pays homage to my favorite class in RO which I have played so long ago.

Weapon Set:
Primary: Dual Daggers
Secondary: Sword/Dagger

Healing, Utility, and Elite Skills:
Healing: 
(6) Hide in Shadows - Good healing skill and allows you to go into stealth and set up your next rotation or escape if you're dying.

Utility:
(7) Spider Venom - Just like the Assassin Cross class from RO, this build specializes in Venom.

(8) Skale Venom - Another useful Venom build.

Three options for the last skill slot
(9) Roll for Initiative - Your survival skill
or
(9) Haste - If you want to be more on the offensive side, take this steroid boost.
or
(9) Ice Drake Venom - If you want all venom skills as your utility, then pick this one up as well.

Elite:
(0) Dagger Storm

Traits: Points distributed as 30/20/20/0/0 with an emphasis in Power, Crit, Stealth and Venom specialization.

Deadly Arts:
(IV) Venomous Strength - Gain might for using Venom? Why yes! You can get up from 4-6 stacks of Might!

(VIII) Quick Venoms - Another must have if specializing in Venom skills. Reduced cool downs FTW!

(XII) Residual Venom - Again another must have as it makes your venom last longer.

Critical Strikes:
(VI) Executioner - Useful in finishing off an opponent.

(VIII) Hidden Killer - Chance to deal massive damage when coming out of stealth.

Shadow Arts:
(V) Infusion of Shadow - Useful utility trait as it gives you some initiative back when going into stealth.

(IX) Leeching Venoms - Since you're specializing in Venoms, this is a great utility to have as it provides survivability.

This build will make you a venomous monster and provide good survivability in melee range. Definite build to use if you want to feel like an Assassin Cross :)
