You should've kept reading along Pat where I try to show he's wrong.
Here are a few things I missed though:
In his calculations he says:
"Range minimum to cap Assassinate:
999999 / (7.4 * 2.5) = 54054"
But later he states that:
"And in any case, marginal or not, the calculations I performed were already assuming a capped assassinate without the use of dark sight or killing points."
If he didn't count the use of Dark Sight then where does that 2.5 multiplication come from.
Also, for Assassinate+Dark Sight the delay is not 1170 but 1410 because you need to add 240ms from Dark Sight.
Anyway,
It is much better to collect 5kp from other Skills (including Meso Explosion) and then use Assassinate than to spam Assassinate+Dark Sight.

Also, Locked, you should check the requirements for Pickpocket for your Guide.

That's the range to cap with Dark Sight, however the range to cap without Dark Sight is lower than the equivalence point I calculated, so my calculations are not incorrect. I will admit that it was something of a gap in my train of thought while I was writing it that created a bit of a non-sequitur. Also you've produced no evidence to support the theory that you lose less dps from using a bunch of other skills than from casting Dark Sight.

Also that picture proves nothing; we have no information on what kind of boss damage or total damage potentials he has. And I say "has" and not "may have" because the maximum possible non-crit bstep from that range is 741,650.
