Pro's Cons - Abyss Walker and Phantom Ranger

Im almost level 20 and Ive been doing as much research as I could on Bd's and Sk's. But I thought it might be fun to break out of the mold of what I usually lean toward class wise and try something new

So im wondering if some folks could give a quick list of pro's and cons of the assasin line, how they fare 1v1, team pvp and in sieges. They seem to be the dmg class for DE but sk's also do pretty good damage at higher levels, so not sure if its worth it to go this route.

Thanks!

DE=gimp con. thats a con.

whoa, con, con. haha. w/e

it generally looks like this for both PvE and PvP.

Archer:
unbuffed: urk..
buffed: hell yeah! :)
Stacked: iWin

Dagger:
unbuffed: PvE:meh.. PvP: works with stabs
Buffed: lets rip em up! If you can get to melee. (PvE no problems)
Stacked: pretty much same as standard buffed..

unbuffed = selfbuffed
Buffed = standard prophet/se with perhaps BD buffs.
Stacked = in a harem of buffs, everything you can dream of you got it.

SK is not a damage dealer... it's a tank... slow leveling... but cubics are crazy and Lighting Stirke.
archer is fast leveler, dagger is fast leveler (both need buffs though)
