This build utilizes the Dagger Mastery to double strike while maintaining Illusionary Weapon. It is somewhat of a compromise between high offense and high defense IW builds.

[edit] Attributes and Skills

Illusionary Weaponry

[edit] Equipment

• Equip Daggers of Enchanting to help keep your enchantments up longer.

[edit] Usage

• Use Illusion of Weakness before the fight begins.
• Use Illusionary Weaponry followed by Shroud of Distress as you approach your target.
• Shadow step to your target with Death's Charge and use Kitah's Burden or Caltrops to slow your target. Maintain one or the other as much as possible to keep your target from running.
• Use Feigned Neutrality when you come under pressure; as long as IW is up you can attack without ending it.

[edit] Counters

• Remove enchants can hurt, but is not as devastating if you can keep Shroud of Distress up as a cover.
