Even though this build is not the best Ladder Starter, a Budget Claws of Thunder Assassin (see Build Variants) can hold its own in certain key Farming Spots such as Arcane Sanctuary. It also frees up Skill Points for utility Skills and reduces screen clutter which can make it hard to see (and in many cases cause additional lag/desync). However, the combination of Claws of Thunder and Blades of Ice still deals similar damage while reducing the need to build up additional Charges, which is preferable for Elite Sniping and fast Terror Zone smashing.

This build can vaporize nearly every standard Farming Spot and Terror Zone with the power of Infinity, Griffon's Eye, and Crack of the Heavens.Ĭompared to the Phoenix Strike Assassin, the Claws of Thunder Assassin deals damage in a slightly reduced Area of Effect (AoE). This Assassin uses either the Dragon Talon or Dragon Claw Finisher to expend Claws of Thunder and Blades of Ice Charges, dealing Lightning, Cold, and Physical Damage to her targets. Claws of Thunder 's flurry of Nova s and Charged Bolt s flattens virtually every area with any number of Players in the game, while simultaneously providing a free Light show! Dual-wielding Mosaics in Patch 2.6 makes this build deal insane, consistent damage! Kazerk Kazerk! Ah, the sweet sound of electricity in the air! The Claws of Thunder Assassin is an endless symphony of electrocution.
