i wont confuse you with mis-advice, as i play on midgard and dont have much experience of infiltrator/stealth classes

but i will give you this... http://daoc.catacombs.com/cbuilder15.cfm...although possibly baffling at first, you may find it useful to get an idea of where your character can be at key certain stages

e.g.
level 10 - some classes get better armour/abilities, but more importantly a nice round number for the sake of being a key stage
level 20 - you can respec a skill & respend those points elsewhere
level 24 - the 'best' level you're going to be for playing realm vs realm in the battlegrounds (player vs player often adopts a different playing approach than player vs enemy)
level 40 - another respec
level 50 - your "final" character


i hope someone can help you more!

Unless DW is an important part of your spec, you won't need to train it till after lv40+

You should always dual wield as you will only get a bonus from DWing. There is no penalty to using dual wield if you haven't specced in it (Left axe has a penalty if you're not LA specced).
