Assassin/Ninja How Is This Weathered Build?

Heya!

I made a weathered build, but idk if its good.
A big thing was that i tried to focus a lot on MS, because MR doesn't trigger in vanish. (+I dont mind having a hybrid playstyle.)
I tried to stick to Agi and Int only, but it did nerf the damage pretty badly, so i added Str.
This gives the option for Abyss-Imbued Leggings, which supports a lot of MS so that's a big plus.

Please give me some feedback on the build!
And please tell me, is MS or MR generally preferable with Assassin?

The Build:
https://wynnbuilder.github.io/#4_0qn09-0Ja07W0OW0OW02d0V10Q+0e-Y1D-Y221g00001007lU

> Unravel
> Conduit of Spirit
> Abyss-Imbued Leggings
> Capricorn
> Diamond Steam Ring
> Diamond Steam Ring
> Atlas
> Necklace of a Thousand Storms
> Weathered (a6a6a6)

 

I'm not sure if 16 ms is good enough for those spell costs just sayin
Other than that, I think it's pretty good

 

Here is an improvement on the build which makes the mana more usable:

Your build is really good aside form the mana departement tho, well done :)

Allso,

mana steal is generally preffered because of what you mentioned with mana regen not working while you are vanished.

 

That's a very nice mana upgrade, thanks!

Makes sense, expecially with the roving assasin major ID.

Thank you :D

 

Some weath builds i have:

Please just use curse/courage it's way better even with the initial slight drop in damage. Courage can also proc mana steal so if you have already low sustain it might be better to go with it even if you would otherwise go with curse

 

i personally dont like working with weathered
but uhhhhhh unless heavy melee/heavy spell you arent using vanish unless to run
and veryfast atk spd makes it deal less spell dmg with superfast atk spd dmges
honestly i think i mdae a tank weather build a few weeks ag but idk

 

Honestly, the mana sustain is very doable if you hybrid a little. (Spellspam then melee for MS)

Nerfing the damage as you said is probably still worth it on its own, although would'nt it be better to switch to WA?
Ii think it would support curse a lot more, which i think has better potential than courage. (Maybe I'm underestimating courage, but I'm not sure)

 

Curse and courage come down to preference 99/100 times. Killing one thing really fast or being able to kill everything but a bit slower has no clear better. Like sure fighting LI plague doctor (can’t remember name) curse is obviously better since you can’t kill the minions and it’s one form, but what about idol whereeach individual form doesn’t take super long to do. Each has their own benefits and weaknesses. But out of all of those a tiny damage increase with one powdering over the other shouldn’t be the deciding factor.

 

That is fair enough, thanks for the explanation!
For this build i think I'll go with curse then, since i want to do bosses mainly.
