Any assassin that doesnt a single point into the Trap tree is 100% ok in my book!

As far as that build goes, maybe leave one of the elemental attacks at 1 point and get shadow master. That thing can kill characters by itself and really helps when fighting FoHers, Bone Necros, and Bowazons. Either way would be good, but be prepared to get owned alot... as far as I have seen M-Arts assassins are terrible in PVP.. if this is for PVM it should do just fine. Also, if this is for PVP I would strongly suggest at least 1 point into Dragon Flight... nothing better then closing the gap with a round house to the face.

Just IMO!

this build is for pvm...........

Well, then your build should do just fine. You shouldnt have any need for the Shadow Master in PVM since you will be up in the monsters face too. She comes in handy by laying out traps and stuff, but gets damned annoying when she starts to mind blast everything around her.

Dragon Flight would still be worth a point IMO... its good for getting out of mass groups of monsters in a pinch, since you won't be using Enigma. Its also good for getting into large groups of monsters, if that is where you want to be.

Just IMO!
