Nightshade Help

[old.Necron]

Yesterday I flipped a coin on which to make a ranger or shade and the Shade won
So could anyone who has made one please just give me a brief run down of how I should Stat him and what to concentrate on most like piercing or celtic dual, envenom stealth, critical shot, ect

Necron, I've followed Luckie's guide (as I hate choices ) and have no complaints whatsoever.

One point you'll need to bb aware of (not sure if it’s mentioned on those forums or not) is that the guide is based on the 1.48 patch where Nightshades get spec points at 2.2 x their level, in EU we’re on the 1.45 patch and only receive 2.0 x level in spec points. I countered this by letting Envenom lapse, at low levels it’s not as useful as the other skill lines and when we eventually get patched to 1.48 I can just put all my back-dated spec points into Envenom to catch up.

Second to Jace, good advice follow guide and leave envenom dragging and catch up in patch.

In groups envenom not great as mob tends to get ganked before ticks get in.

Luckie's guide can be found in full at http://www.daocnation.com and is a bit easier to read there cause its got some nice formatting

 

[old.Laryssa]

Thx to put it into a nice format

nowt personal to luckie, its a very nice guide, but SOOO hard to read with the default forum no-formatting on warcry so much easier to read after i was finished with it
