Demon Assasin Build - "The Gambler"
for kicks
Demigod Forums
So, everyone plays DA pretty much the same way, slight variations, but no one goes for stats. So I thought I would, and tested out the build in a few games. What I found...
Well honestly, its nothing special, but its decent enough and fun to play. Here's the build:
Level 1: Save
Level 2: Elusiveness 1 + Demon Speed 1
Level 3: Save
Level 4: Save
Level 5: Shadow Swap 1 + Elusiveness 2 + Demon Speed 2
Level 6: Precision 1
Level 7: Save
Level 8: Elusiveness 3 + Demon Speed 3
Level 9: Precision 2
Level 10: Shadow Swap 2
Level 11: Precision 3
Level 12: Precision 4
Level 13: Stats
Level 14: Save
Level 15: Shadow Swap 3 + (Speed/Elusiveness combo)
Level 16-20: Stats
Starting item: Boots of Speed
Favor item: Swift Anklet
Item Order:
-Assasins Footguards (For the dodge and attack speed)
*I usually get tower regen/ currency 1, so my next item is delayed for awhile but is VITAL to the build.
-Journeymans Treads
-Slayers Wraps
If you have money,
-Narmoth's Ring
-Parasite Egg
And that's it.
Starting off, you'll hopefully have a speed advantage. However, you're pretty much entirely useless. Your main job is to cap flags. Cap the middle as soon as it goes, and just sort of stand behind your allies on either lane to scare the enemy. You really can't do anything. Any direct confrontation and you will die horribly. So just run around, be helpful, whatever. Around level 7 or so, if things are going well, you'll start to balance out, and you can swap enemies and such to help your team. A 1v1 is still a very bad idea. Once you hit 10+ however, if you've managed to stay alive and keep up in levels, you should be a great support. You can attack closing in demis, or swap from pretty far away.
The only items I carry around are tele scrolls and flag locks, usually only one of each before level 15. If the match goes longer, you'll be a beast - you can easily 1v1 pretty much anyone, unless they really know what they're doing, and chase them down. Thats your major role- you want to get them to turn around and run, because you are incredibly faster and can swap when they get near their towers.
That's pretty much it. Capping flags is your main goal. You may want to switch Narmoths with Slayers, I've always gotten Slayers first just for kicks and extra crit.
Quite honestly, its not a very good build. But then again, its not terrible, and the only way I could think of going about a stats-only DA build. Let me know what you think.
