Assassin: Manastone, Hotkey Suggestions

I'm new to assassin to an extent on aion that, I've just started pvping with it 2 days ago in which I've felt alot more comfortable as an assassin than I do with my glad. Though I could still use some pointers and tips on what to improve on and whatnot.


Stats (weaponry) :
Main hand:

Attack: 826​

Accuracy: 2,243​

Crit Strike: 635

Off hand:

Attack: 582​

Accuracy: 2,243​

Crit Strike: 635​

Hotkeys: their abit messy i know I'm still trying to work a good flow though I require some help on which combos should be in priority

 

Well as First I want to state, that your Attack will go down .. a LOT . because currently there is a bug which increases your att .

So your att will change to aprox 600.

Well for manastones .. if you can weave, +5 attack is fine, but don t forget to cap the crit !
I would remove those few +14 MR from your armors, because MR is effecient if is fully stacked

For binds, I would suggest what fit you best ... personally, I bind "on move" usable skills to my mouse, others "burst" to my favourite binds, and buffs and other stuff stock and f1 - f6 ...

Please note that I play my Sin only when I receive daily quest

 

try to put some magic accuracy stones so you can land your stuns, and have higher chance to gs the enemy

 

put ur hotkeys where u find it easy to remember... like.... D = quikening doom , R = ripclaw , etc... and also ur combo skills near to each otheer like u can also use CAPS LOCK O_O... try putting Focused evasion... Q for counter attack. alt Q for whirling strike xD

so Caps lock. and for the counters Q + alt Q... easy to click...

 

i recommend this combo.. flash of speed> sprint> aether twisting> run like hell> get as far as you can> hide.... it's what i do whenever i run into zergs.

 

Well, tbh I would create a floating bar for buffs, I usually click them, as for the offensive skills, just as Izzabelle said, I personally use C for Ripclaw, E for Signet, Q for Quickening Doom etc.

But if you don't want to setup a whole new line of hotkeys, just bind these skills to the normal skillbar but to somewhere around 1-5/alt+1-5/ctrl+1-5 so you'll be able to use them without clicking.

 

As me ..as an assasin i suggest you this :

Go : Crit + Atk in Gloves
Full Magic resist on Armor
Rest..full atk
U cant do so much with 2 taha daggers..aw..the weapons go full atk..u dont need crit due to ur buffs

After u will buy abg weaps and accs u will see a big difference
Good Luck

 

No MA? '
And I disagree with hotkeys, I think any play as you see fit
And my fit is:

 

This made me Lol, I do the same exact thing when I see a swarm of red on my map.

Thank you

I've been playing around with my hotkeys to get a good setup and so far I'm liking the results, making a floating hotbar for my buffs saves me room and time if when I've been forced to chase someone down. I've also started to become more adept at weeving been practicing that on Mobs to get a better feel of it.

I tried using my caps lock but it failed ~w~ (...kept hitting tab and breaking my lock-on...which lead to a horrible defeat at the hands of a templar </3 )

and also about extendable daggers, I used 2 as skins for my daggers but the range on them still seems to be the same as if they actually were extendable, Is this a glitch or are my eyes just playing a trick on me?

 

also... try making a bar that only gives you a bursting buff... like hit.... shift 2... u got the 2nd bar.... press 1 2 3 4 5 alt 1 alt 2 alt 3 alt 4 alt 5 then hit shift 1 for the atacking skills

 

Solo Manastone: full macc
Group zerging Manastone: attack/crit

Skill setup
Floating bars for attack/evasion buffs
- I made a macro for full evasion skills to go against SB noobs.

Skill rotation
Rip claw - pain rune for physical class/radiant for magical class - weave - beast chain - pain rune/blind for physical class - weave - sigil chain/lightning slash chain for Known MR classes

Lol skill rotation for assassins are not fixed depends who you are up to but one thing you need to keep in mind are always rune carve skills first then rune burst skills and You need to look at the carved runes and diffrentiate between level 3 and level 5 visually.
