Hi, does this build still work in patch 8 or is there any adjustments to make it powerful? I decided to build this because I prefer assassin over other rogue subclasses but my group just hit level 4 and I honestly feel really weak compared to them, so I'm unsure if it's just how early game is for rogues (first time playing this class) or if the build got nerfed haha
