[[Assassin Shadow Disciplines|This skill tree]] is similar to the Amazon's Passive and Magic Tree, though there are many more combat type skills here, things that actually do damage, rather than just boosting your other attributes. | [[Assassin Shadow Disciplines|This skill tree]] is similar to the Amazon's Passive and Magic Tree, though there are many more combat type skills here, things that actually do damage, rather than just boosting your other attributes. | ||
The left branch of the tree {Burst of Speed | The first two skills on the left branch of the tree {Burst of Speed and Fade} should be treated as the Paladin's auras in as much as only one can be active at a time. Casting another will cancel out the first, but Venom can be cast concurrently with the others. | ||
It is worth pointing out that there are situations where the more limited Shadow Warrior is sometimes preferable to the Shadow Master. You may wish to have your Shadow use the skills you have active at that moment. The Master will use any of her 26 skills {not including Claw Mastery, Weapon Block & the two Shadow skills}. You may want her to use a certain trap or a certain martial Arts combination. The Master, while pretty intelligent, isn't as clever as you {one would hope} and she has full reign over all skills {regardless if you have a point in it} so there's a chance she'll not use exactly what you'd like her to. Warrior on the other hand is limited to the two skills you have readied and therefore there's a greater chance she will use those. This level of control is offset by the higher life and consistent mana consumption {20} of the Master. | It is worth pointing out that there are situations where the more limited Shadow Warrior is sometimes preferable to the Shadow Master.
