I'm gonna put a nude martial arts assn on the West pubby account and have a few questions.
Here is the basic plan.....
Pump shadow master, phoenix strike, and [dragon tail??...the exploding kick] These will be her mainstay skills.
Which should I invest in.....Venom, or Fade, or BoS?
Will all of these skills work without claws, and do any of them work in ways that vary greatly with the skill description [in the way double throw does for example]
Any miscellaneous tips/advice/warnings?

Yeah: Don't put that shyte in a post ever again.
If she's truly nude, you'll want attack speed and land speed from somewhere, and pronto. Burst of Speed is your best option.
You're neglecting any other skill beyond a single investment? Should be a challenge getting her to 30 so you can get Phoenix. You might want to consider Wake of Fire for a killing option: minimal investment in the Traps tree will see you through to 30 a tad easier than bare-knuckling it for Dragon Tail kicks... even with the Charge-ups you'll need to buy just to GET to Phoenix.

Stat points:
0 to strength
enough dexterity to hit often (many points)
anything not in dexterity goes to vitality
a few points in engery for mana regeneration for lack of mana steal

Fists of Fire
Blades of Ice
Claws of Thunder
Dragon Claw
So basically the left side of the MA tree, plus the claw finishing move.

Three points into Cobra Strike (and three charge-ups) gives you 100% life and mana leech, but your damage is going to be fairly low, so I agree with Langolier about the points into energy. You could try a combo of the two, I suppose, to see what works best for you.

Hail Striker,
Trust me: you don't need claws for them - my MYST goes along fine without, and uses those skils ;)
Albion Child, use Burst of Speed AND Fade: BoS for most of the time, and Fade for when your lack of resistance is making the game impossible for you. Again, my MYST uses both, and it's not a bad idea at all. Also, 1337 should generally be avoided here as the forum regs don't like it (as you've likely gathered by now). Actually, anytime a head explodes, you know you've done something bad!

I just assumed the skill descriptions were right. Part of the reason why I put the source in parenthesis. Can't blame me! ;)
I'll have to try them out the next time I play my blender assassin. Not that I don't trust you. Just gives me more options while I'm playing. :)
*rubs hands gleefully*
Assassins can be so fun!

Okay, a slightly amended plan...
Hopefully this will work out.
Max phoenix and dragon tail.
Put a few into fade and BoS (5 or so)
3-4-5 in cobra
Pump vita and fairly high dex ( I wish I could just 'hold' a Jah rune)
max shadow
I think you are probably correct Nico, that getting to level 30 will be dang toough...but I think it is necessary to plan far ahead and therefore survive on single point investments until then...hell diff is the rel challenge...
One more question to you nudists out there..
Are charms generally used by naked characters or is it cheating?
P.S. it's all elrics fault!!! ;) :) :blink: :wacko: |300/\/\!!!

Four words? You can read that mess?
In only 45 seconds?
I am amazed at the obviously large time spent on learning how to read that pile of.... "letters".

Hail Brimstone,
My guide to 1337 can be helpful here ;)
74|\|>< = tanx = thanks

Of cause, there were quite a few people here who translated it to this:

Not sure why...

Did you read the 45 second thing?
This forum is about communication. If 4 words need 10-40 seconds to translate, then the goal of communication, in an effort to be cute, is obstructed.
LEET SPEEK is SHYTE.
How many seconds did it take to translate that last bit? :D
