Rogue (Assassin) Critique/Help

[DarkKindness]

All righty, so I rolled a Rogue for my first DDO character. I'm now level 7 and wanted to check in to see whether I'm doing it basically right, or whether I should just grind 1750 Faction and toss this character out the window. This is an Assassin build, so is focused on DPS, but I do try to at least have sufficient skills to handle most traps and the like. As he stands now:

Any thoughts on the build as it stands, ways to improve, and options for further advancement would be much appreciated, and thanks in advance!

Im making an assassin for the first time as well. Went heavier on con than you and lower on charisma, no power attack but similiar to yours for the most part. I took 2 levels of fighter as well.


I find traps difficult, which is embarassing, and has not been in a long time aka my last rogue.

I to am making an Assasin, have got it to lvl 6, but Im debating on scraping it( 1ftr/5rogue ) and making a pure build in the hopes that there will be an improved capstone by the time I make it to 20( I did see mentioned by a long time player in a recent thread that he had heard that there will be more variety in capstone in the future ).

You could possibly do as I did and get 400 favour, then roll a drow, which are 32pts, just some are already spent and you only have 28 to play with. Halflings do make the best Assasin from what I have read, I just wanted a 32pt stat build. If I did reroll the drow, the stats would be exactly the same as yours, except con which would be 14.
