Old Shade new Spec..

[Stallion-]

So was thinking of respeccing my bladeshade to something different..

atm I got something like

44 blades
39 cs
36 env
35 stealth
19 cd

but as cool as I am I wanna try something new..(rr4 spec xD) so I said to myself.. fuck lifebane... the 45 poision is enuff and the 47 str/con debuff is rly what I want...

33(+14)playing poisons..
50 blades for strong ws & to handle debuffs better.
34 CS, I rarly do stunning stab, rather move around target as its stunned and start on a positional chain
29 CD
and 27 stealth...

so thats with SC:
47 env
64 blades
48 CS
43 CD
41 stealt

b4 you reply.. my intresst aint to go odins and stealthzerg other infils...if I play the NS ill be playing around in uppland/svasud..SOLO!

i would recommend you respecced to 50 firby, or mby 50 elfie

best spec for all classes..!

but u ofc know that elfie

 

[VodkaFairy]

I'm:

50+15 = 65 blade
39+15 = 54 cs
32+15 = 47 venom
34+15 = 49 stealth
12+15+6 = 33 cd

I would really recommend this over 27 stealth, because you will be spotted from really far away. And luwi's don't have the hp to kill many people in a row, you need the stealth. Dropping CS to 34 is probably ok, you will style for less, but I suppose you can live with that... And stunning stab is indeed pretty much useless if you don't PA much, and with 50 blade your back chain is very very good so you can use that instead of ss anyway.

Lifebane is just crap. No reason at all to get 47+ env.

I'd get at least 47 modified stealth, but preferably 49/50. I only have 49 and it does make a big diff.

 

[Stallion-]

what about lower venom for stealth?
new example

50 blades
34 cs
29 cd
23 env
36 stealth

 

[VodkaFairy]

Well, I've considered that but decided not to risk it. 27 points difference in the str/con debuff does matter alot, but I dunno. It's better than the first one imo

Worth a try I'd say

 

[VodkaFairy]

You could also try:

50 blade
44 cd
12 cs
35 stealth
23 venom

would be interesting to see if that works

if it doesn't, 1 single line respec solves it all

 

[Stallion-]

ill go for the 2nd tbh

 

[VodkaFairy]

lol I think I'm going to try the cd spec if I get my hands on a respec

 

[azshara]

47 env and atleast 48 stealth with all +. then work about how much cd that is, not much im sure, but atleasy now u can stealth.

 

[Sichama]

Personaly i would aim for a RR5 template and not RR4 as it is relatively easy to reach it and you can't afford DR 2 untill R5L7 if you go for Purge, AP3 first.

So if the main concern of your template is to have 50 weapon i would go,

50+15=65 Blades
32+15=47 Envenom
34+15=49 Stealth
34+15=49 CS
22+15+6=43 CD

If you main concern is to go to a more blademaster spec than i would go.

50+15=65 Blades
32+15=47 Envenom
29+15=44 Stealth
21+15=36 CS
39+15+6=60 CD

 

[Stallion-]

ok so made a rr5 template .. not gonna play this ns to much but what the hell

50 blades +15 (65)
33 stealth +15 (48)
42 cd +15 (57)
21 cs +15 (36)
23 env +15 (38)


what do u think ? xD

 

[Stallion-]

ok remade it abit again

50 blades
31 stealth
32 env
10 cs
42 cd
xD

okok last post
final spec was:

33 stealth
50 blades
42 cd
2 cs
32 env

xD

 

[vintervargen]

good luck, but personally i dont think ns's can do the "tank" spec. cd styles just dont do as much dmg as cs anytimes, and you got no DF/DS

ask cyclodia magol etc, who tried the high weapon/cs style

 

[VodkaFairy]

there is no difference really

lower style dmg, more offhand hits/procs/crits = same dmg

and pa takes same hp as debuff

works nice tbh, and one respec can fix everything.. its nice to try anyway

 

[VodkaFairy]

Stallion you n00b !!

Ice storm doesn't have the increased bleed, increased dmg, nor stun component added. That was only for bm's.

 

[old.Laryssa]

dont put more than 35 into stealth

 

[Stallion-]

well played around abit yesterday and I was not happy with the spec so im prolly gonna go 44 cs...

33 stealth
44 cs
32 env
45 blades
16 cd

 

[VodkaFairy]

omg play more with it

 

[Auriel]

What if you tried a 4-spec shade? Are they any good? eg @ RR1:

40 Stealth (overkill normally but good in high level keeps vs realm guards / ToA Stealth Lore items maybe)
50 Blades
31 CD
36 CS or Envenom - swappable with a single stone

 

[VodkaFairy]

They arent good :x

Something like:

34 cs
39 pierce
39 cd
31 venom
34 stealth

would be fun

"good luck, but personally i dont think ns's can do the "tank" spec. cd styles just dont do as much dmg as cs anytimes, and you got no DF/DS" - vintervargen

I liked high pierce/cd on my ns, was 47/47 before I sold - and if I'd ever get a ns again, I'd go that route once more. Felt like quite a difference in dmg output and stood better against other assassins with it, than prior to it (tho were bladespecced before that ^^), so can't really comment if a 5spec pierce would be better. Shademaster suited my playstyle tho =)

 

[Freppe^^]

Well, been thinking how to write it several times . Ill put it like this, atmosphere, my irl m8 who has 47 in stealth or so now (rr3) gets PA'd wayyyyyyy easier. Even tho im just 2 pts in stealth above him, the enemies spot him very easy. At least infs that has the xtra pts and can spec to 50 stealth directly etc.

If i were you, i'd let CD go abit, and focus on main hand..
spec would be:

50 blade
35 stealth
33 env
34 CS
19 CD

edit: this was without auto, if auto, spec those in cd, or lower cd alot and go 39 cs.

 

[azshara]

anything without env is gay. just imo.

 

[Stallion-]

ah well im back with 44 blades, 44 cs, 16 cd, 32 env, 35 stealth

 

[old.Mousah]

how much do you throw away on respec stones if i may ask?

 

[allnewdave]

35+15 stealth imo, especially with ToA due soon

u may not!

 

[Aloca]

CS is best for weak targets or when you are grped,

.

i did feel liket the CD spec was better against pure tanks and stuff your pa is useless vs.

(usless pa = anything below 500dmg)
