SWTOR: Sith Assassin PvP Talent Build/Spec (34 Deception, 7 Darkness)

[Xoshxius]

Does this still work for those sneaky kills where you kill a person in a few hits?

[Roguemovies42]

Is this spec still good for PvP or not anymore?

[LazyPenguinsBuddy]

@Roguemovies42 I have it set up, it's excellent in pvp. i can reliably get 3.5k hits in a row.

[Shaaaane]

Although recklessness does use a charge on the second shock proc....

[ttylor123]

@Shaaaane No it doesnt... learn shit before you post.

[Shaaaane]

@ttylor123 Lulz that's hilarious, because I posted a question in regards to this exact statement and was told by a Bioware employee that it does, and it is intentional. Listen to your own advice.

[Shaaaane]

Zybak, would you consider a 31/0/10 Darkness build viable for pvp? I would think between becoming tanky as hell and the auto Shock crits + double shocks, and Wither, you could be a serious threat in both 1v1 and group fights.

[Cr4azyK1ller]

O-B-F-U-S-C-A-T-I-O-N

[MrCookieGaming]

What are the best crew skills for assasins?

[Applestuff59]

@MrCookieGaming if you are going pvp, biochem, bioanalysis and diplomacy is the way to go

[doodlepop6927]

doo doo doo................. awsome

[Hellgoregaming]

2:42 CHEWY

[pkersoul]

LoL masteries?

[darklord809]

maybe the extra 10 points into madness for the double lightning talent?

[Hellgoregaming]

@darklord809 Pve way!

[Shadowclawz1]

0/33/8 BEST Burst Build.

[2h2k]

7/31/3 is the build i would take

[indolivion]

Man I teabag with my assassin I don't know why so little people play it. Once I got my force speed ability it was domination. Super fun.

[7425398]

so bro is this more pvp the pve?

[sgamingr]

at 0:15...Decpetion?

[WTBmoreT]

Abs- whatever the fuck it's called.

[ninjaa1111]

Wtf Its Chewy... 2:42

[n0script]

this build only good for pve, totaly crap for pvp!!

[xBingobam]

No Top Comment! Heres my chance.... umm... STAR WARS!

[pkermage55]

@xBingobam I'm sorry, but you've failed...Please leave now. :I

[Thehahaha9087]

zybak help your guild they are starting to put out pathetic and irritating videos, put your videos on their channel! not irritating little rednecks

[BobmanL11]

Nice video for a one take. Also, it was helpful how you went and explained your choices. This is a lot more helpful than any standard copy and pasted cookie-cutter spec.

[Sid3nFTW]

decpetion

[thats0mama0luigi]

hey can any one tell me do you only kepp 1 light saber like how it should be or is it like wow where you use new weps as you get highers plzzz help and if you put a Crystal in a light saber can you take it out ?

[Xirifus]

@thats0mama0luigi Assassins (SI) use double-bladed lightsabers, sorcerers (SI) use single, marauders (SW) use two, and juggernauts (SW) use single as well. (Same thing for republic/jedi, just different names for the advanced classes)

You /can/ equip single for assassin, for instance, but many assassin skills require double-bladed lightsaber so it's not really viable.

If the lightsaber is moddable (most are), You can take crystals out and swap 'em around. (also other parts, too)

[ccr1567]

I watched toweliee own you over and over, l2p before you start giving tips to others.

[TheIgnorantBastrd]

Zybak, please do a pvp combat guide for assassin too. I really like playing assassin for questing and i want to get more into pvp with it but im not too good at it. Think you could do a quick guide on that too?

[CockneyBurberry]

whats better at pvp Jedi Shadow or Sith Assassin or are the both the same?

[dylanjb]

@CockneyBurberry they're mirror classes, all classes are exactly the same as their mirrors, the only things that change are skill names, aesthetics, and for some classes, the weapons they use

[Emilaset]

@dylanjb Are they EXACTLY the same, or are they similar as in WAR?

[dylanjb]

@Emilaset exactly the same

[Emilaset]

@dylanjb thats what they said about the classes in warhammer aswell. So The mirror of assasin shoots lightning and do that aoe shadow thingy aswell? :P

[Xirifus]

@Emilaset The mirror of assassin (Jedi Shadow) - instead of shooting lightning, throws rocks and pebbles at people. Other than things like that (animations, skill names, aesthetics) they're exactly the same.

[Brondsteda]

pls new pvp video!!!!

[Nylok4601]

had to put a space before and after the "com" for it to let me post btw

[Nylok4601]

db.darthhater. com /skill_calc/jedi_consular/shad­ow/#::e4fe2fef2e2fef3e2f2cfef2­e4f4e2f21:

This is another build ive been playing around with. It's a hybrid with the tanking tree.

the ones i was really getting at over there were:

Elusiveness

reduces sprint cd, you talked about it, awesome talent

Mind over matter

lets you break movement impairing effects with shapeshift..i mean sprint lol

also gives you an extra 2 secs on cloak of shadows as a little bonus

One with the force:

30% faster

[Nylok4601]

regen, more energy, more backstabs.

also kinetic ward is nice, makes you a bit tougher, not phenominal, but a nice little bonus

The last 2 points you could put in a few different places, battle readiness, exit strategy, subduing techniques or shadowy veil.

i prefer to put the last 2 points into the armor, just for a bit more survivability, and with the thought that this is basically a backstab spam build and none of the other options really help that

higher regen, more survivability, and har

[Nylok4601]

der to control

anyway, this is just something I'm messing around with may prove to be crappy, may be solid, who knows

[emillanden1]

"decpetion", n1 :D

[bamselinen]

Did a 4/32/5 spec with PVE/PVP in mind, so its off course not a pure PVP build but it works

[danneppp]

Lol Deception was spellt wrong..

[NeonSykes]

"I'm a big fan of discharge" nice Zybak xD

[DjSperlich]

Nice.

[TheWalsey24]

Did anyone else notice Deception was spelt wrong?

[SirStttudder]

I cant see anything ?

[lunch214]

mustve been amazing i heard a few voices squeak

[CockneyBurberry]

is Sith assassin and jedi shadow basically the same? 

[ladruner]

@CockneyBurberry ya moves just have dif names and diff looks

[CockneyBurberry]

@ladruner ah nice one :) cheers

[DoubleRSWTOR]

@CockneyBurberry one uses melee, and the other is a range class, using spells with electricity

[CockneyBurberry]

@DoubleRSWTOR so which is better for pvp sith assassin or jedi shadow?

[rumzidumz]

Usefull guide :)

[funnycrewGTD]

low slash = rogue gouge

[Sanquinity]

Let me ask this...why are video's like this even made? Basically a show of a talent tree and someone naming the talents that were picked. Why not just put this up on a website as a picture? People can read what the talents do in game as well...

[ladruner]

@Sanquinity he tells you why to get them

[accessdeniederror]

I run a 21/9/0 build focusing on early gank and survive ability. Jungling is quite easy as a Sith Assassin, and in the laning phase he dominates.

[Failtardz]

@accessdeniederror Lol'd.

Good show, sir!

[Ihealz]

"whoops, I dun goofed." >.<

[fetlix]

wow! thats Exactly How i Spec! holy crap! XD

[Houzanz]

@fetlix prob because they're is a "best" spec build, unlike WoW in 5.0.1 where they will be changing the talent tree's.

[fetlix]

@Houzanz yeah :o

[YetiMMO]

What does Proc mean?

[TheCodmw2fanatic]

@YetiMMO Activate, so a passive spell might activate (Proc) but might not.

[accessdeniederror]

@YetiMMO Some abilities have a chance to activate and when it does, it procs. There is a better explanation I am sure, but I am late for work.

[PictureOnAWall]

I wonder if they'll change the talents like WOW is doing since most of these look like filler, exactly like wow used to have...

[randomM4ge]

i really would like to try this game out, i just wish they would put out a free trail, even if it was just for 5 days, just so i can get a taste of how it plays and how it runs on my pc

[Amauna]

It says "Decpetion" =)))

[slasyer1996]

Hi there!:) Im thinking of buying Swtor, but idk if its worth it ? Pls Tell me ! :D

[madlolx1]

@slasyer1996 It is not IMO.

[SuperCompany007]

@slasyer1996 IT SURE AS HELL IA WORTH IT

[TKChris1337]

Hey zybak if you had to talk over a wow player to start playing swtor, what would be your best arguments? i think wow is at its best for long time now, but i wanted to try play swtor but to pay for 2 mmos it have to be good reasons.

[DarlicaMaek]

To much pew pew burst, to little armor buff... if i was playing on your server i would only aim for u with my commando... easy kill. <3

[Smack479]

I have vaginal discharge.

[Sebmeister999]

U shouldnt go Surging charge, but just use dark charge. Makes u a lot tankier and u can guard your healer. ..

[walterppk1989]

if youre pvping and you dont pick up the first tier deception armor buff (30% extra armor in shadow stance), youre just wrong. Try this instead skill-calc#200McMZGGrRkhMbtzZz­.1

[xXxVarkenxXx]

Hey Zybak, I would just like to say thank you. You inspired me to get SWTOR and level up a Inquisitor, not at level cap but having a ton of fun :D btw you should make more of your prank videos.<3 Peace man.

[vindication7]

hi zybak

[Turrick16]

the acc is based on how low is the armor which in sto the faster ur are the less chance of being hit but more armor equal less chance to be hit but that is my opinion.

[MerciIous]

There aren't enough geared people to be calling for nerfs just yet.

[Heyyouguys0]

zybak do you think they will nerf assassins and scoundrels cause of there burst ....alot of people on my server anyways have been qqing about those 2 classes in particular

[HeMuLiiX]

Decpetion? Bioware misspelled xD

[ZombieRayGun]

madness is bad ass

[Chakka27]

What glyphs?

[ZombieRayGun]

@Chakka27 lol



[MeaningInTragedy93]

Obfuscation BTBAM<3

[jamieovcymmer]

@BenbanksTV and you want a medal?

[googlmyfroogle]

low slash = gouge

[Iplayzwownum1]

whats stealth level?

[RyuXHalo]

I'm running 2/31/8 right now for the 45% chance for shock to hit twice but I think I'm going to go 7 in darkness for the reduced cool down on force speed.

[kieranramsden1]

hahaha i wasnt a big fan of discharge. but now i am a big fan of discharge hahahahaha

[DirectXTC]

I'd get those final points in the lower left one from the deception tree, gives you 30% more armor, always nice

[lionheart461]

hey Zybak quick question i'm interested with swtor but i wanna know what comp specs i need to run it plz let me know and happy new years

[uprisingdrizzt]

Wow..... Such boring talents to choose from rofl

[xe585]

Static Charges has a different tooltip in game. I don't think it increases Surging Discharge damage. Just Surging Charge damage according to in game tooltip. So I dropped those 2 points after a bit of leveling and put them in Force Slow.

You might not need force slow, but I have shitty frame rate so the slow spell really helps me with getting behind the target for a Maul proc!

I couldn't pick up the AOE Damage Reduction or Overcharge Saber reduction. Went for the +10% crit in the Madness tree.

[Vvaysion]

@ZybakTV Could you please make some videos for people who not play Assassin. I really miss you Cod videos, where you talk about random stuff :/

[jamgt4]

Hey plz make a how to vid about pvping with Assassin include stuff like when you use certain ablilities and why. That would be really awsome so many vids about classes in wow & SW never cover rotations/priorities, chain moves all the stuff that everyone wants to see and hear basically.

[wildbill0528]

What is the highest level of swtor?

[RebirIIth]

@wildbill0528 50



[kingofrohan888]

I personally think the "Chain Shock" build does more damage its 2/31/9 i think?

[323552877]

Sup Zybak Bladerz from SWTOR here are u going to make a Assassin PVP Tutorial and/or guide on how to make them fight with there full potential ?? plz

[Swiftnesz]

Only Sith Assassins care about this shit.

[Swiftnesz]

WHY CANT WE LIKE COMMENTS?!?!?!

[DarkSydeMelvin]

Stop making half-assed videos dude. Put more effort into it. I know you mentioned this, but still. Come on.

[BenbanksTV]

is this the same spec you were in for that Bg when you got owned by Towlhead? you did crappy damage

[xe585]

@BenbanksTV melee class did crappy damage verse tank spec? fail Zybak... fail

[BenbanksTV]

@xe585 go watch the video, his overall damage on the recount at the end of the BG was crappy

[xe585]

@BenbanksTV oh okay i see what you're saying, but don't get me started on how unimportant that statistic is

[MarcelL2212]

Hey zybak are you going to " Report " about the Youtube Drama between Towelliee and Douglas?

[l3lindTyper]

its so weird going from wow and knowing how to spec everything hten going to star wars and acting like a deer in headlights.

[RhunikWolf]

@l3lindTyper but all the choices are blatantly obvious, at least if you can get a decent understanding of that tree's play style. i haven't even touched the game yet and i had already planned on using the same talents he picked in deception. the only real variables are the final 10 points and whether you use them for offensive or defensive talents, which is all a matter of preference.

[stannhierzo]

Hey zybak nice vid i hope you will make a vid over the playstile of a assasin keep it up Btw i spoke to you in game :p (Sall)

[GupLup]

Could a SWTOR player who also played WoW give me their opinion on which they enjoy more? I bought the full WoW game while it was in sale, and I love it so far. How is TOR compared to WoW?

[torell95secto]

@GupLup if you like wow now you probably wont like swtor cause to me it feels more burning crusade like imo the good days so if you liked the burning crusade go for tor if not its probably not your best choice

[GrimspySlayer]

Hey Zybak! Have you ever tried playing heroes of newerth or leuge of legends? I think you might like them!

[Painomanonthemoon]

ive seen a jedi counselor spec into balance which is the equal to madness. the spec allows you to deal a ton of damage and leaves dots on ur opponent.

[Ethier1234]

I was thinking of getting Chain Shock x2 Buff of Voltanic Slash that increase shock damage, Including 50% more chance to crit with Crackling Blast sounds insane amounts of burst. I'm only 44 atm so can't test out fully.

[DrewmanWoW]

If one more person sais to nigguh I'm gonna go on a killing spree irl

[NegativeNezzy]

Double Shock is absolutely amazing. The burst is off the wall.

[Dish0089]

Assasin talents really sounds like a rogue!! :O

[Hug3isFTW]
