Martial Arts Assassin

Hi,
I have a lvl 47 Assa in NM IV. Followed a firetrap guide so far. The guide says respsec to to lightning traps, but I want to do some martial arts / kicks that will ideally work without another respec into endgame..

Tried to look up some builds, but they all seem a little old (4 years+), and not sure what to pick.

Could you recommend something that would work easily in current meta?

I have a few stashes worth of different garbage including 2x bartuc's

Claws and I think all the

Boots they mention in the builds

look for jade thing, I remember I also use firezilla , basically bartuc is good enough.
MA is not very different,
get a

Teleport amulet will help a lot too.
+2 sk doesnt mean that much in solo but

Teleport does.

Also you may want a

Blood Ring with 3 affinx hit that require lv 47.

I don't play Assassin, but from what I have heard all you need is Mosaic
This weapon seems to be so overpowered, that it's all you really need.

yes , it is, but level up play Mosaic doesnt play important role in early level.

Mosaic is a ladder only runeword, and it's expensive for non ladder players to acquire. A good start for weapon would be Bartuc's with +2 to all skills and +1 Martial Art's skills.

thanks.. u mean unique

Claws with jade right?
and do you have a good build to follow?
I could also craft Rift, is it a good build?

Jade Talon, good for resistance. You get you use it. When time is come dump it.

Rift also very interesting. Get cold facet. It’s game fun part, when you finish play and reach lv 90 . Change it to end game thing

Yes, it is relatively expansive. However, right now you get it for 1 x

Ber to 1 x

Jah (on this website) - compared to several other high end items, it is not more expensive. Or even way cheaper than those. (Enigma is

Ber +

Jah - so double the price)
All I wanted to say is that the increase in combat power with Mosaic is absurdly high and that the aquiring of it should be of the highest priority.

For many players 1 X

Ber or

Jah is expensive, and you really can't compare it other high end items because an Enigma is not competing with a Mosaic for available item slot.

It competes for avaiable ressources. Sure, if you can buy everything at once, it doesn't compete.
But if you have the ressources for roughly 1

Ber and maybe 1

Jah, you have to decide. What do you buy first with it?

So if you are not one of the very few rich players that just buy whatever they want, every single item you buy competes with each other.
