A Lotus Temple Striker assassin uses Way of the Lotus to unleash a combo which renders melee characters and spellcasters alike almost useless due to Temple Strike’s blind and daze effects.

Optional

Optional

Optional slot may be filled with deaths charge for chasing running targets, healing, or spiking an unsuspecting target.

Other good choices could be Unseen Fury if you intend fighting enemies that tend to block at a high rate or Heart of Shadow for a quick heal.

Equipment

Usage

Activate Way of the Lotus before entering combat. This sets you up to be able to use your combo without stopping to wait for any energy to build up.

Use the entire chain of attacks from left to right on the skill bar. Activate Leaping Mantis Sting early if they begin to run, followed by jungle strike and whichever dual attack you prefer.

If another player begins attacking you midway, finish your next dual attack and run to prevent dying due to your low defense assassin armor.


Counters

Blindness prevents you from hitting them with temple strike to prevent them damaging you. Kiters and Cripples may also present a problem as you cannot get close enough to do any damage before they take down a major part of your hp.

Variants

Replace Horns of the Ox with Death Blossom for fighting mobs as oppose to single targets.

Replace Jungle Strike with Fox Fangs for fighting blocking foes.
