Hail Stormbringer,
*chuckles* Elric hailing Stormbringer ;)
Anywho, to the topic at hand! Most Assassin skills are great, really. You cannot go wrong with Tiger and Cobra Strike, and with a two-claw Assassin you should probably use Dragon Claw as your finisher. Every one of the four elemental claw attacks has a use, so take your pick as to which (if any) you want. Claw Mastery is obviously good, and Weapon Block is nice (but don't get it too high); Fade abd Bust of Speed are always nice to have, and Venom can be good too - if you're willing to add the points. Cloak of Shadows is pretty cool, and Mind Blast is nice, while both Shadows are excellent allies - though the Master is by far the most popular. Wake of Fire, Wake of Inferno, Lightning Sentry and Death Sentry are all nice, and I personally also like Blade Sentinel and Blade Fury - but I'm wierd ;)
You'll not need a lot of mana, but life may be tricky; high Strength and Dexterity both help you in the long run. Two claws is your ultimate is dual-claw weapondry, and you may also like some armour with that :D Yes, I know that's not much use, but saying "Dood: get these impossible to find itemz" is just as useless, so it is no worse than most item opinions you'll get ;)

May the wind pick up your heels and your sword strike true.
