yeah zaggon i play both east and west, and i cant wait to see what the resident pvp expert ,blckshdwdragon has to recommend. but until he does ill just say that i saw one of the coolest builds for this type of assassin in a duel game. i had never even thought about it but kicking assassins are very viable now, because there was a kicking assassin a melee game killing everyone, minus a barb that said he had 28k defense. but from what i saw this assassin used dragon talon, dragon flight, the shadow disiple which lowers defense, and with bursts of speed and it was insanely fast and decent damage. some noteable items that he had were uped gores, and razor edge(unique tomahawk).
