The Assassin - The Sanguinity Hot Technique Tree

Learn to manipulate the very blood of your enemies with the sanguinity tree for the Assassin base class! Assassins spend one of their two "hot"- or aggressive - tree specialization slots to take sanguinity, which itself is focused on bleeding enemies out and repurposing their blood to generate temporary hit points and heal allies. This makes sanguinity the assassin's go-to choice when sneaking and skulking just won't do and a heavy battlefield presence with equally-heavy sustainability is the way to go.

Many of the sanguinity tree's nastier tricks- such as area-of-effect ability bleed- and all of its sustainability effects make use of the blood pool, which replenishes itself as the assassin deals bleed damage to various targets. This forces an assassin to play the long game of bleed damage while simultaneously awarding the assassin with the means to stay alive long enough for that bleed to end any encounter that isn't stuffed to the gills with opposing healers.

The sanguinity tree combines well with the following technique trees:

The fabrication cold tree grants the assassin tactical flexibility, and its ability to enhance sustainability with a plethora of tiny stimpacks segues nicely into the sanguinity tree's gameplan.

The execution hot tree contains several bleeds, and since bleeds already existed in the assassin's repertoire, the sanguinity tree was built to assume that you'll either specialize in the other tree that'll help fill the blood pool, or that you'll spend your very few flexible technique choices on out-of-tree bleed effects.

The magehunting hot tree helps you shut down enemy healers so your bleed effects stick, while the sustainability of sanguinity makes it so you're a persistent thorn in the side of anyone with any spells to their name.
