Help with new assassin, which build?

[derwen]

Hi there! I play HC and I want to make a new char. My last two got PKed... I'd like it to be an assassin, preferably some kind of kick trap hybrid but I'm not familiar with them so I need some advice on a cheap (have no items) and kinda allround build... I made a trapper couple years ago but it wasn't as much fun as I expected, and those LI sucked.... Any advices will be appreciatted. Thanks D.

I know theres a guide in the compendium that's kind of like a budget dtalon/trap guide. utilizes items like runewords strength in claws and smoke in armor. I cant remember what else was in there but i think the highest item level req-wise was just the "lum" rune (37). look it up
