lifesteal Leveling DPS/tank build

Armor Types

Gear and Item Set Info

My goal with this build was to create a nightblade with good sustain as well as survivability. It focuses on Dots and Debuffs as well as stuns and cheap shots with charge and reverse slice to finish off an enemy. Specific gear is not required but it is essencial to have heavy gear so as to benefit from constitution and Revitalize effects from the heavy armor skill line. If you decide you can work this build without heavy armor you are free to switch to full medium armor for the increased crit chance/ wep dmg/ and stam recovery.

General Info

Creating Multiple sources of resourse gain while in combat allowing. This is a cyclical effect combinding shallow soul and degeneration. Making you almost impossible to kill in pve and dangerous in pvp with the full effect of your dots. Mark target gives you an edge against any single target. In pve this translates to you completely forgeting your health bar and just going for the kill. Effectively making you a decent tank yet an endless source of damage if you switch between staff and 2h. Weaknesses to this build are mostly skill point variations. You should definetly invest points more toward your magica for greater sustain and can increase that with siphon/leeching strikes.

rotation order is as follows

Reaper's Mark, Shadowly disguise, Critical Charge, then switch weapon, swallow soul, degeneration,drain power, switch weapon, and finish with reverse slice.

if you are outnumered its good to drop aspect of terror or combine unstable wall of elements  and frost clench. but you really wont need it unless you find yourself in a dungen or if your health is reallly low. Keep in mind these are good dots and should incorporate it in your build if you find your self in a range fight.

Champion Point Tips

Do what you like here but focus on resouce regen and damage resistance. Again this is a leveling build so im assuming you dont have any.
