[edit] Equipment
- Any Max AL armor will do for this build, but for best effect, you will want Shrouded or Nightstalkers armor, and attached Radiant Insignia's will give you more energy to spend.
- Like armor, any max damage Daggers will do. Chkkr's Daggers are great if you don't need to worry about energy regeneration. Also Arius' Sai is majorly effective.
[edit] Usage
- Pick your target enemy. The further they are from others is better.
- Swiftly charge in with Death's Charge or Dash (See variants) and start your combo.
- Before it can even deliver a decent attack, you can have already used Unsuspecting Strike and Fox Fangs.
- Quickly cast Blinding Powder, leaving the enemy blinded and temporarily unable to deliver any strong blows.
- Finish your combo with Death Blossom (Great finisher if you have another enemy attacking you).
- If health is getting low, spam Shroud of Distress, and begin to repeat you combo.
- If enemies surround you and you are losing too much health, cast Vipers Defense to escape (also dealing poison to the attacking enemy.)
[edit] Counters
- Conditions that cause a degeneration can become increasingly hard.
- Creatures using Interrupt skills.
[edit] Variants
- Deaths Charge can be replaced with Dash for entering battle.
- Vipers Defense should be replaced with some form of healing if you have no worries of enemies surrounding.
- If you do not need your resurrection skill, replacing it with the elite skill Shadow Form is a great idea to escape from hard battles.
