No it is not necessary, some builds *do* but far from all. (some ghost wwsin)

They are really different and thous usefull in different situations, but generaly dtalon>dclaw.

Claws of thunder is the most effective in general.

Looks stylish but not really powerfull, Blade fury will be helpfull in chaos santuary when iron maidened. Note that without death sentry your killing speed will be deminished greatly.

As a new assasin, keeping things simple will really help.

Dragon Talon with a good set of boots will give you all the physical damage you need. Add to this skill in groups of 6 to get an extra kick. So at lvl 6 you get 2 kicks, at 12 you get 3 kicks,at 18 you get 4 and at 24 you get a total of 5 kicks. Damage comes from your boots so get the highest dmg boots you can find. Myrmidon boots give you the best result or if you are on ladder you can upgrade a pair of gore riders for the best kicker boots around. D Talon uses most of the none damage mods on claws so use Bartucs, which are quite cheap, or unique/magic claws with similar mods.

For elemental damage you have 2 choices. An elemental attack like Claws of Thunder or Phoenix strike or, boost your physical damage as high as possible and use an item like atmas scarab. It has a 5% chance to cast amp damage ( the curse that removes physical immunity ) and with fast Dragon Talon attack you will find this occurs frequently.

There are some really good guides for kickers in the stickied threads at the top of the page which should help you to figure out what skills you like which will work all round.

Welcome to the most addictive game ever invented........:grin:
