Blademaster

Nightblade + Soldier

Dual-Wield Melee, with a focus on Pierce/Physical type damage. We focus on dealing as much damage as possible, while dumping points in Cunning. Rapidly striking and appearing in front of enemies, knowing when to retreat when the enemies overwhelm you. When paired with a group, someone can take the enemies attention while you rapidly strike from behind.

Dual Blade tree is our biggest passive damage boost throughout the build. Veil of Shadows and Night’s Chill play a critical role in debuffing enemies around you, reducing their resistances to your attacks. Pneumatic Burst helps with healing and survivability. While Shadow Strike is a good skill, we’ll mainly use it to move around the battlefield in and out of attacks rapidly when needed. Break Moral will be our right mouse button ability to reduce enemies health directly. It’s second ability in the tree is not all that beneficial to this build, so we’ll skip it. Oleron’s Rage is a big part of all our damage, along with Squad Tactics which also helps. The Belgothian set provides our left mouse button ability, it builds up charges while attacking and dealing more damage.

This will be your starting class, focusing on dual wielding and piercing damage. Focus on Dual Blade to start, and unlocking all skills with at least 1 point up the rank 32. Afterwards, slow down on the mastery bar, and dump points into remaining skills. Night’s Chill is important to the build and it debuff’s enemies that are nearby, which also increases your damage. Blade Barrier points can be assigned elsewhere if the playstyle does not require it. The armor in the build increases all skills shown here, so don’t worry about only having 1 point in them.

This will be your secondary class, focusing on the mastery bar to unlock the later skills. Only assign a couple points into the beginning abilities, as we want to unlock Field Command, Break Moral, and Oleron’s Rage sooner rather then later to increase our offensive abilities. Once these perks have been unlocked, you can go back to put points into the earlier abilities. The mastery bar on this class should be focused over the Nightblade’s mastery bar, as it’s later abilities are stronger then Nightblade’s.
