I've been using the assassin class for a while and have found it quite...not-assassin-like. The rogue is more like an assassin than anything. Which is why I put this build together. If anyone has questions or comments, feel free to say. Any feedback is awesome! Thanks!

Notes on custom elements:
Ring of Fate: *Daily* Recharge one encounter power or daily power that you have missed with.
Reaper's Touch: Select one encounter power. That power is now an at-will power. (Chose Cloud of Darkness)
-------------------------------------------------------
The point of this build is mass damage and being able to sneak attack during every turn without having to knock everything prone and such. Cloud of Darkness should satisfy the conditions required for sneak attack, I would think.
Anyway, thanks for taking time to look this. Peace.
