21 Critical Strike for BS and PA
44 Sword
44 Left Axe
39 Stealth

anyways after the litle buffblade comment, 44 sword is a tad uselss bcause left axes base dmg is well axe, i would reccomend you bring down the 44 spec lines and up a bit in CS, you WILL want the thing after PA, creeping death, its a damned good style, i think 30 stealth should do it, because theres +11 instealth from items and since SBs solo lots the speed your RR will increase should be fairly fast, up envenom a bit to 30 imo from 22, if you get +20 in env if you reach the holy grail of RR 10, lifebane will kill any target because its dmg is NASTY

Left axe damage is based off your LA spec not axe spec. Sword will work just fine.

Stealth is a bit high, aim for 35/36 depending on when you want to get 50 (RR4 or 5).

Lifebane will not kill anybody. On someone with decent body resist you're looking at 50/tick, that's not going to outright kill many people. On the other hand if your envenom is too low you won't be able to get a decent str/con debuff.

In my opinion, Either 10 or 34 CS. PA isn't going to get you many kills at 21 (10 to pop BT on casters). You'll want lower stealth as well, 35/36 as suggested above is ok. 44/44 weapon/leftaxe is fine.
So if you want high LA/Weapon and 34 CS, you're going to have to give up a little envenom. If you can make do with 10 CS, you'll have better poisons to play around with. Low envenom specs are viable, most specs are tbh. So it's up to you

wouldnt having only 21 CS make the damage variance on PA so great that rather not use it at all?

 

[katt!]

variance wouldnt be that bad since weaponspec affects it. it would have a crap cap though.

thanks for all the reply's


is there anywhere that list's all the ability's that you get from speccing stealth goto level 35last night and trained stealth uptp 25 for the climb ability and also got safe fall 2, danger sence and detect hidden anyone know what they are ?

 

[old.LandShark]

safe fall 2 = gained at 20spec, let's you fall significantly further without taking so much damage.... safefall3 at 30 spec is enough to jump off keep walls or milegates without hurting yourself.
Climb walls is rather self-explanatory (hell, so's safefall ) but, well, it lets you climb walls... gained at 25spec.
Danger sense is a thing that tells you when scout mobs in PvE have detected you and are running for help... distract let's you turn a mob to face a given direction, it uses ground-target and isn't particularly useful
All this IS in the stealth spec list at catacombs...
