This build is for chaining multiple attacks together, first doing damage, knocking the enemy down twice for less damage from them, and multiple conditions to usually take out most builds.

- Mark of instability can be replaces with another hex, though it is recommended.
[edit] Equipment
Any type of dagger Needs equipment with high energy to chain the combos
[edit] Usage
This build has 6 skills to use together, so it requires a lot of energy. First, use Mark of Instability to hex the foe. Unsuspecting Strike is used to deal damage, then Black Spider Strike to deal more damage and poison your foe. Horns of the Ox is used after to deal more damage and knock your foe down, and Falling Spider does extra damage and poisons again. Finish with Twisting Fangs to give your foe two more conditions, deep wound and bleeding, and if he is close to dying, use Shadow Refuge to keep your health up. If he can endure your combo, it is recommended to run with feigned neutrality, because it keeps your armor up and regenerates your health.
[edit] Counters
The biggest counter is blinding. Others are being interrupted in the middle of a combo, evading, blocking, or anything else that disallows you from completing the chain.
[edit] Notes
This build is not meant usually meant for long battles, as for it chains a combo just to kill an enemy, and then to run and restore energy. Because horns of the ox has to knock down a foe to continue the chain, it is advised that you stay away from allies and enemies to knock attract attention.
