Could you, or whoever see's this, tell me about Maelstrom assassin?, I looked at Unholy Paladin but from what I saw you have to keep 2 or 3 buffs up? Maybe I'm wrong though
UHM:
There are two buffs you have to keep up, one is Rapture (which is like a 3m cooldown at higher levels) and the other is Sanguine (which is a 60s cooldown). Honestly not a lot to worry about.
You don't really need to keep up vindicate and there's no more tainted blood.
Maelstrom:
Maelstrom assassin is very basic. Just stack dexterity and use a

It's a really easy character to play as you only need to buff with Tiefling form (Buff and forget) and throw knives. You might need to occasionally use shadow refugee to raise your physical resistance however in later stages of the game you might have enough from your gear to the point where you don't need to even use that. By stacking dex you also easily cap out your block chance in later stages of the game as well.
