Charge up skillz are useless??

hey out of all the PvP sin guides out there its all about kicks, traps, and WW (what ever that is) but theres nothing about charge up skills like cobra strike or pheonix strike....i meen you'd think a lvl 30 Cobra strike would rock in PvP cuz you could heal yourself in like 2 hits and with BoS or something you could do it nice and quick
so does anyone use charge up skills or no.

I already told you that WW is whirlwind. Charge up skills are to be used with finishing moves. There are some martial art assassins, but most assassins people use are Trap and WW.

To get Whirlwind people use this Claw-Only Runeword that gives you 1 point in Whirlwind. That way your Assassin can do this cute little representation of a Whirlwind which is so cute it almost makes you want to go there and die just to see it. ^_^

But yeah, anyways, back on topic:

I have a Dragon Tail + Tiger Strike Assassin. She uses Natalya's Set. She's OK for PvM in Hell, but sometimes I DO get bored and enter PvP games. Since she has maxed BoS and Cat's Eye, she is HELLA fast and so killing her can be somewhat difficult.
However, killing OTHERS is even harder with the LOW damage she does without her charges. So I'll I have to do is gather charges and unleash them to deal like 18k damage.

But THAT'S the problem. Gathering up charges in PvP is nearly impossible. You're left totally open. Against Amazons and Sorceress, I can sometimes do it. I have maxed IAS, and Knockback on my claw, and some PvP characters have such LOW FCR that if you go over there and start hacking them, you can beat them easily. But against most melee classes, you'll lose. And badly.

What I sometimes do is, lure them into where there are monsters, build up charges there, and then go at them and kick them. The shocked faces on those Hammerdins...
