Alright I need help. I keep looking around for good PVP/PK builds for Sins and I'm getting really confused with all the builds being thrown out there. b:surrender

Some people are saying 1 str 4 dex every level, some say go pure dex. I found someone saying 1 vit 1 str 3 dex until lvl 15 then go 1 str 4 dex. Way back when I made my first sin I somehow found a build calling for 3 vit 1 str 6 dex per every two levels but that doesn't sound right to me.

I remade my sin and I want to use her strictly for PKing She's lvl 5 now and I don't want to keep using my build of 3 vit 1 str 6 dex per every two levels incase I royally **** her up. I figure up to level 5 shouldn't do too much damage.

I need the opinion of an experienced, high level, highly successful Assassin PKer or PVPer for a build.b:cute

I don't care if it's something complicated like "this build up until level 20 then this much dex 'til level 45" I just want one of the best PKing builds out there from someone who knows what they're talking about.

Inexperienced Sins need not apply. b:shutup

Thank you in advance for the advice! b:cute

    dont follow this lol b:shocked

    4 dex 1 str every level has worked for me, but adding a few vit points shouldnt hurt to bad
    and you also need 1 str per level to wear gear and daggers your level
    its up to you for the final descision but this has worked for me

    Try with hybrid +1 vit, +1 str, +3 dex build from 1 to... 80 (you can stop with the vit earlier, but I found 80 to be a comfortable stopping point for me). Makes you less squishy in earlier levels. Re-stat after wards to a pure +4 dex, +1 str build when you get most of the skills you need to stay alive.

    Up to you though, it's your fish. Glass cannons can boom boom real well, but break real easily.

    1 str 4 dex

    And the reason I say this over 1 vit 1 str 3 dex is because, even with that added vit, the end note is your still going to be squishy with an even smaller crit rate. So what difference does this make? I'd rather just put that extra point every lvl into my dex and up my crits, facts are facts, your going to stay squishy even with 1 vit per lvl, you won't survive that many extra hits to make 1 vit per lvl make a difference. So I strongly suggest the 1 str 4 dex per lvl, not only does it up your crit rate but it allows you to wear the newest armors etc.

    depends how rich you are really...I didn't start refining to +4 till 70 and my 85 gear is +4 also. I'm using a 1 str 1 vit 3 dex till 95 when I make my lunar set. then I'm going to restat the vit and put into dex. but it really depends how rich you are cause refines will cover the hp ur gonna be missing

    1 str 4 Dex every level. Stay at 5 vit and 5 mag. you will shard your gear with citrines to get your HP. the whole point of the sin is to make the 1v1 fight last less than 10s. BMs and Barbs are annoying but with a Genie with Tangling Mire you will do fine. Don't sacrifice crit % for a small amount of hp that wont make a difference. Pure DD is always the best and if you learn to play the class well you will do fine in PVP b:bye

    I've done nothing but 1 str 4 dex every level and I'm doing alright. Lower level were rough because I did tend to go through a lot of pots/charms. But now I just get hp/def from refines and hp from citrines. Oh and btw I pk 95% of the time I play now b:chuckle
    The only sin to go from 1 to 102 completely nude b:cool

    i have a sin n this archer and a sin and best build EVER is 4 dex 1 str and in the end, a bit more str for a good helm and maybe claws. A sin can go to 5aps same as an archer, using Decide claws. And will surely do more dmg than a barb/bm clawed cuz lots of crits and better acuracy. And even if u steal agro u wont die cuz u just spark all the time and tht heal u :P and u get cleric's heals or barb take bk agro... and in the end does it matter if u die? at 100 ur doin just bh, nirvana etc...i mean dungeons. if u die it doesnt matter u get a rez, but everything its easier and it takes less time...n in bhs just dont spark in the end or stop so u wont die and get kill :P 100 lvs means 100 hp, 1,3k hp at an archer......emh...does it matter in pk when some1 with 5aps hits ya? i dont think so.... or even higher def....archers and sins are made to be DD and SQUISHY, not barbs. The idea is to kill fast, not to tank cuz u kill ur charm and lose time :P so DEF 4 dex n 1 str and in the end a bit more str for helm n claws...thats best thing for pvp and pve ;)

    not really an expert on this but to back up the 1 str and 4 dex build..... another thing thatll make up for hp ( im thinking) is as ur puting all this dex into ur build not only ur crit is goin up every 20 points but also ur evasion % is being added to I dunno how often n wut not I read it somewhere but I think the evasion would make up for the loss in not putting into vit....

    it is good for 4 dex and 1 str every lvl because when u get blood paint maxed out, u will gain health in chunks. :)
    Do you hate me? Good, that makes for an adequate conversation starter.

    Unless you go Sage, Bloodpaint ALWAYS has a 2% heal factor; leveling it up only increases it's duration.

    This.^ Keep it at lvl 1. Tackling Slash, Shadow Walk/Escape, Rib Strike, and a few others are some of the skills to max out first. Especially Dagger Devotion, or whatever it is called..

    I have mine at level 3, and it only lasts 3 minutes longer than level 1. DEFINITELY keep it at level 1 until you are Sage/Demon and want level 11.

    N-n-n-n-n-n-n-n-nnecrooo!!
    Yeah...
    Mag = fail
    Str more than char lvl + 4 (i.e. your's should be 26) = fail

    Once again... Necro.
