Image:Red thumbs down.png This build is not favored by the GuildWiki community.

The general consensus among users of GuildWiki is that this build is not viable.

This build is designed for PvP uses. Shattering Assault and Expose defenses makes it very deadly against monks that rely on enchantments for defense. It is capable of stripping through protective spirit, and is also capable of cutting through stances.

[edit] Equipment

  • Radiant insignia armor, energy +5 and/or zealous daggers preferred
  • 1 rune of attunement preferred

[edit] Usage

Against any target without means of blocking attacks, use Siphon speed to slow them down and Burst of Aggression for IAS. Proceed with Black Lotus Strike and Shattering Assault. If target is close to death, use impale. Otherwise, use Black Spider Strike and Shattering Assault again. If target is still not dead, then use impale.

Against targets with means of blocking, such as guardian, aegis, shield of deflection or stances, use Expose defenses first, then the rest is the same.

Rinse and repeat until the entire enemy team is wiped out.

[edit] Counters

-Snares, Hex breaker (Only if the target is capable of blocking), and Blind

[edit] Notes

-Always go after the monks first. They will be taken completely by surprise due to the lack of defenses against this build.

-Energy management is crucial if you don't have zealous daggers. Radiant insignia armor is a must.

-Know when to stop. If you're low on health, discontinue your attacks and use Feigned Neutrality. This build lacks a shadow step, therefore making you much more vulnerable.
