okay liked the bg sooo much with my ranger that i'm making a new shade specifically for the bg.
so due to everyone making shades i'd like to discuss bg shade speccing
my current template will be
19+5 stealth
21+5cs
10+5envenom
4+5cd
18+5blade
now the reason for my spec
Stealth
being a shade for my main i very much appreciate the need for stealth, so i wouldn't want less then the other stealthers in the bg, so 19+5 is my goal
Crit strike
i love p.a, i have to say its my fave shade skill, the instant huge damage makes it my first choice as an opener, since its normally 2x's as damaging as bs2 and an instant kill on sitting chars is always nice
envenom
i'd love more then this amount of envenom, but due to spec point restrictions i can't, however 10+5 envenom give me 21 damage dot, and the 61 sec snare, both these are very nice to have, as it allows kiting, and its just nice hearing someone yelping as u hit and run
celtic duel
the base 25% chance of swinging is high enough for me, but since i have spare points i'll put them here, and the now familier +5 making my chance to swing roughly 30% if i did my maths right
Blade
i have a pierce shade, so wanted to try the other weapon out, 18 weapon will do alot of damage and very little variance, it also gives me fireblade, a style i loved with my ranger, and does alot of damage.
this template takes autotraining stealth to 24 into the equation, but since i'm going to be going high melee i shouldn't have any problems soloing if i pull with my damage spell, and make sure to apply poisons.
any input or different specs would be appreciated, since i'd love to know how everyone else is going
