Bugs[edit]

  • Leeching Strikes is a recommended morph for this build, but its parent skill, Siphoning Strikes, is not.
  • Berserker Strike is advised instead of Siphoning Strikes. ? [verification needed — is this the same bug as above?]

NOTE: Berserker Strike requires Two-Handed level 50, so is WAY out of line for this build. Siphoning Strikes (Siphoning level 30) is simpler to reach, and allows the recommended Leeching Strikes morph. Of course, that messes up the Skills Advisor flow, so YMMV.

NOTE: The Shadow skill "Veiled Strike" was listed above as a "Shadow" skill, but it is an "Assassination" skill. (Perhaps the devs moved it??)
