I have a level 76 blade fury assassin currently struggling through act 4 hell
I decided to go with a two handed weapon just because an assssin with a big axe looks cool.
My build:
1 blade fury
20 venom
20 master
20 death sentry
and all prerequs....I'm currently maxing fade
I chose an act 3 cold merc who served me well through nightmare but he isn't cutting the mustard in hell. I'm in the process of leveling a might merc.
I found that cloak of shadows is the best defensive skill in the game, something a zon would kill for. It completely neuters all the monsters on the screen and lets you pull uniques/champions away from their packs. My shadow master is so efficient with her death sentry that I almost regret putting points in mine. Seems like every time a corpse drops 2 sentries appear on the screen, hers and mine.
I do use demon limb and an angelic ring + armor. Between those I don't really have an AR problem, about 80% chance to hit anything in hell which is good enough for me.
The best weapon I've found is a Reaper's Toll. With the speed of BF the decrep goes off all the time. The damage might not be the most spectacular but I expect by the time I level my might merc enough to use bonehew between us and my buff master we will me a team to be reconned with.

Step 2: Acquire and train a monkey. This step may take some time.
