Assassin's Blade, should I upgrade to Adept 3?

[My]

<DIV>I am a 28th lvl assassin right now, and Assassin's Blade is still orange to me. I was wondering, at my current level, how much longer I will be using it and if I should use this rough jasper I just found to make an ink for it and upgrade it, or if I should look at raising something else instead.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Thanks.</DIV>

<DIV>Im pretty sure you get a better version of assassine blade with your lv30 trait or something like that which has adept2 quality so I wouldnt waste a rare on it!</DIV>

The level 30 trait skill as the above poster said, is adept 2 quality with a faster refresh timer, so it's a better choice.  I'd use the jasper on Assassins Mark, personally.

Another option is ebon blade.  It is on a 60 sec refresh instead of 5 mins (4 mins if you go elaa's training choice) and in the long run that makes all the differance.  Assassins blade is a one trick pony.  Big hit every 5 mins vs sustained dps every 60 secs. As suggested assassins mark might be a good choice too as it never gets replaced. <div></div>

<P>Assassin's Mark all the way. Changes to to a 3% chance to trigger, ups the damage a bit, and you'll never have to replace it. Ebon Blade gets replaced later on.</P>

agreed.  assassin's mark first then if you get another go for cut at lvl 29.  will last you a long time still. <div></div>

<DIV>I had used one on Cut since I could never find an adept for it, but the damage didn't increase very much from what I remember.  Wish I'd used it on Assassins Mark now, but at that time, it was broken.</DIV> <DIV> </DIV>

wait till lvl 38 when you get the upgrades to Assasins Blade and Ebon Blade. Upgrade those. <div></div>

I would say to hold off until you get Condemning Blade. It is the upgrade for Assassin's Blade.
