I would say that relying on your master to kill phys immunes will cause alot of headaches for you. The master does *not* use the skills you would like it to very often. It will mindblast when you want Death Sentry, it will Dragon Flight when you want Mindblast, ect. Yes, it could kill them all for you, but it will be very tedious going vs any phys immunes. I expect you will skip phys immunes completely.
With frequent use of mindblast/cloak of shadows you can get an MA assasin through hell, but don't expect to be a big killer in large hell games(well except a good kicker I suppose). As for 10 in burst of speed, take a look at a weapon calculator and determine how high lvl BOS you will need to reach max attack speed. 10 points in BOS which has such diminishing returns may not be worth it.
Also, you may actually be better off with fade instead. Many MA assassins have been using fade more often due to the hidden damage reduction(1% DR per point in fade. You may attack slower, but you'll live alot longer if you can max DR %. Well, I'm colored on the subject as I play HC only.
Of course though, if you have super gear it could be a cakewalk.
