Shadowstepper

Classic shadowstep build:

+ good dmg, good survive, distract enemies, 3 break stun skills, evade skills, great
   condition remove. Aoe blind.

- very hard to play - need practice a bit, bad in *corner* tactics and on small places.

I like this build, you just port arround like Yoda.

should be a great PvE build!

Its also good pvp build. You always can get away from target or to target for 2500 range+ in few sec xD Also when u step to target every few sec and use pistolwhip - u hurt him a lot, and he cant catch you. I personaly never use this build in pve - always in pvp. But post it bcs its my favourite thief build. Peeps run them a lot in fractals when they want be a *real* dps =)

i dont like the way i cant control where i shadowstep to, and the 20 points in DA i thought better to place into CS to get 20% more damage below 50% hp. and i cant stand to keep dodging to gain the 10% extra damage. so i modified do this:

so you can gain vigor on steal and keep dodging. using pistol whip's evade and ur lifesteal to try and stay alive . maybe i should probably get more toughness and hp as well haha

Interesting build too xD but no shadowstepper anymore =) Yea i agree with no control on *steps*, its why i pass playing thief. I enjoy SS build 100x more than another thiefs build. But i probably miss sklil for it - it was so much different than my *ranger* style =)

it still mainly is! Infiltrator strike and return is the best shadowstep ever!
i just took out the traited shadowstep. and got more initiative(with points in trickery) + init gain when stealing to do more Infiltrator strike! and 25% faster steal recharge! thats super shadow step

but yeah having that traited shadowstep can save my ass alot of times xD
