Equipment

• Armor
  • Nightstalker's Armor for the additional armor while attacking
• Weapons
  • Perfect vampiric daggers for added damage. eg. Urkal's Kamas or Chkkr's Pincers

Usage

• Choose your target and move into melee range.
• The attack chain is Jagged Strike, Wild Strike, Death Blossom, Impale, Jagged Strike, Wild Strike, Death Blossom...
• Due to the fast recharge of the attack skills you should be able to cycle through the chain over and over.
• After hitting with Wild Strike, use Blinding Powder.
• Just before the target dies, use Assassin's Promise on them. Blinding Powder will recharge and you will be able to continue spreading blindness.
• Use Death's Charge to move to the next foe.
• Maintain your health with Shadow Refuge while fighting.

Counters

• Blindness
• Blocking stances are a challenge.
• Hex removal can strip Assassin's Promise before the target dies and you get stuck with a recharging skill bar.
• Plague Touch can be tough as when fighting groups of necromancers. They'll all blind you in turn, using the blindness you put on them.

Variants

• To handle blocking stances, use Unseen Fury instead of Death's Charge. If Blindness is a problem, use Plague Touch instead.
• Also, to increase your ability to use your attacks repeatedly, try using zealous daggers.
