Gear and Item Set Info
Personally, I'm not much of a min-maxer, so I tend to go with sets that seem interesting rather than what may be the best choice. Atm I'm running 5 piece Night's Silence (weapon + all minor pieces) and 3 piece Night Mother's Gaze (all major pieces). Jewelry I believe is Sithis' Touch neck and rings for some health from both the bonus and pieces. All armour pieces are medium armour.
Traits on the major pieces are Infused with Max Health enchants. Minor pieces are Divines with max health enchants. Bows use poison dmg enchant with sharpened trait.
Mundus stone is Thief.
General Info
Strengths: Plenty of dmg potential, especially from stealth. Be different from the mainstream.
Weakness: I won't lie, your survivability with this build will largely depend on your skill and logical reasoning. Rapid switching of reaper's mark to a near death target to get a self-heal off will in some cases be necessary.
food: personally i prefer regen drinks over stat food, health/stamina regen being my personal favourite.
You'll probably wonder why both bars have lightweight trap and camouflaged hunter, the reason for this is their passive effects. It's an easy way to give you a 6% dmg increase per bar and 10% extra crit chance, without needing to switch bars like it's going out of fashion. During testing i found that their passive effects are only active when they're on the ACTIVE bar, not from being slotted on any bar.
Remember to keep weaving in regular light attacks to keep the dmg buff from the bow skill passive line active.
