Item Set Suggestion - NB - Stam - DW (PvP)

Sarevok_Anchev
Hey all,

Just a quick suggestion for a stamina based NB build using DW instead of the 2h alternative.

Medium Armor, weapon crit, and weapon damage are the focus obviously and I'll be shooting for daggers for my weapons.

I was looking at Skirmisher, Twice-Born Star and Way of the Arena but if there are other suggestions, I am all ears.

    Ravager (4): I use the chest and the three jewelry items
    Morag Tong (4): two daggers, belt, and hands
    Ashen Grip(4): What ever else I need
    I do two heavy the rest medium. I do infused and some divines. Chest and head are infused w/ health enchant the rest stamina. I wanted a slightly more tanky DPS. This built is used often but there may be better ones out there. Current weapon dmg without buffs is 3034, it was 3198 before the last update. I use this on my DK but should be good on a NB.

    I reccomend ravager 5 set 3 jewelry and gauntlets and legs heavy. The other 5 armor should be hundings medium and you could add two moral tong daggers or I would actually reccomend two swords of any two set which gives weapon damage as the two set bonus.

    I would overwrite the ravager rings enchant with reduced stam cost and keep the pend with weapon damage.

    When I first went Stam NB, I did the whole 3 piece Raveger, 5 piece Hundings, and 3 Ashen. It was... meh. Pretty underwhelming for pvp. Good burst, but as soon as you burst you're sitting there with no regen, which is kind of like doing a really impressive elbow drop into a party... and then dropping your pants. I then did 5 piece Way of the Air, and some Night Silence. Not a lot of oomph, but the extra sustain was amazing. I quickly started liking that, but wanted to focus on a little more punch. I then did 5 piece Crusader and 3 piece Night Silence, with 3 pieces of Shadow walker jewlery. That actually has a surprising amount of punch, with a ton of defence. I'm planning on moving toward 5 Skirmisher, 3 Night Silence, and 3 Shadowwalker now. For sustainability (for offence and defence) and raw dps, I haven't come up with anything better.

    If you don't have Ravager yet, try the Air set. It won't push your weapon damage, but it will significantly improve your Stamina regeneration, which makes dodging a lot easier and you can spam most attacks almost indefinitely. :)

    Just a note on the ravager 5 set. Don't underestimate the power of the proc on this. It proc's constantly and raises my weapon damages far over 3k and I'm in 5 heavy and 2 med with nights silence and ravager.

    If in 5 medium and two heavy - 5 ravager/5 hundings and two strong swords I'm betting you could hit 4k weapon damage buffed and proc'ed.
