Shadow Assassin Builds
POE Betrayal Assassin Molten Strike Starter Build - Fast Life Recovery, Cheap, Tankly
Pros
- Looks nice
- Mostly cheap
- You can tell everyone you did Shaper with <10k tooltip DPS
- Can do every map mod, doesn't rely on leech or regen
- Literally melts bosses
- Tanky, can facetank most of the game with good gear
- Vaal Pact nostalgia (very fast life recovery)
- Slows down enemies a lot
Gems Setup
6 Link: Molten Strike - Added Chaos Damage - G. Multiple Projectiles - Multistrike - Ancestral Call - Deadly Ailments
The first five gems are pretty much required to have, Deadly Ailments is the best DPS gem we have left.
Level 21 Added Chaos Damage is very desirable because it's the main source of base damage
A 6-link is very important for your damage, as the final link is another 60% bonus.
Recommend getting a Tabula Rasa or 6-linked rare item for a cheap start.
Volkuur's Version
Replace Added Chaos Damage for Immolate because it has higher numbers (you can ignite with critical strikes).
Frost Blades
Frost Blades - Added Chaos Damage - Chain - Multistrike - Ancestrall Call - Damage on Full Life
If you want, you can try out Frost Blades It produces less lag than MS and has better area coverage, but significantly worse single target damage.
The gem colours are the same as Molten Strike, so you can easily swap between both skills. Threshold jewels are not needed.
4 Link: Shield Charge - Fortify - Faster Attacks, Arctic Armour
As Movement Skill I highly recommend Shield Charge, as it's more precise than Whirling Blades and costs less mana.
With Fenumus' Weave, these gems have to be in the gloves because every other setup would support Aspect of the Spider, increasing the mana reservation.
Volkuur's Version
Replace Arctic Armour for Anger for some extra fire damage.
4 Link: Spell Totem - Wither - Increased Duration - Faster Casting
The totem pretty much doubles our damage and should only be used in bossfights. The Hinder debuff does not stack with Aspect of the Spider, but overwrites it for a stronger effect instead.
4 Link: Cast When Damage Taken (level 1) - Immortal Call (level 3) - Increased Duration - Enfeeble (level 5)
Just the usual IC/Curse setup to protect you.
Note that you can use any curse you prefer, but Enfeeble is the most defensive.
3 Link: Herald of Agony - Pierce - Minion Damage
Adding support gems to the Agony Crawler will increase you mana reservation to a total of 85%, which is still fine.
If that's too low for you, you can swap Minion Damage for Additional Accuracy (which doesn't have a mana multiplier).
Note that the Crawler starts extremely strong, but falls off the further you progress through maps
A level 21 Crawler with 40 stacks will end up dealing ~120k single target DPS, which makes it sufficient for packs, but relatively weak against bosses. If that's not enough for you, feel free to consider another setup
Level 21 on the Herald is highly recommended, as is 20% quality.
3 Link: Cast When Damage Taken - Summon Lightning Golem - Blood Rage
Both of these buffs boost our attack speed. Blood Rage can be sustained with our life regeneration, so it actually helps survivability by increasing our hit rate.
These gems are on CWDT because I'm too lazy to activate them myself (Blood Rage is instant so you could also manually activate it if you want).

POE Betrayal Deadeye Voidfletcher Build - Low Budget Viabe, Fast, Endgame
An ordinary Void Shot isn't especially impressive, it deals around the same damage as a typical unsupported skill, but since it's not in a socketed piece of gear you've no way of adding support gems to it, which makes it seem underwhelming. However, it scales extremely well on extra arrows, better than any other skill (barrage and molten strike included), because it's extremely easy to get the explosions to overlap
Dec
