Some NB Skill Questions

I’m a NB using Ambush at the moment which grants 20% extra damage on your next attack. I usually use my Ultimate straight after, but for the times when I don’t have any Ultimate built up, I’m just wondering what I should use. I basically have a choice between…
– A Heavy Attack
– Twin Slashes
– Rapid Strikes
The only issue is, the Twin Slashes and Rapid Strikes skills are multiple hit skills. Will I receive the damage bonus for ALL of the damage, or just the first hit? If it’s just the first hit, I’m thinking I may be best just doing a heavy attack or something for the 20% bonus damage from Ambush.
Also, do self healing skills stack? I'm wondering if the self healing from Blood Craze (Twin Slashes morph) and the self healing from Swallow Soul (Strife morph) stack together to add more healing, or whether I'll just get the benefit from one.

Vandril✭✭✭✭On your first point: unless something changed in 1.6, effects which buff your "next attack" will only buff the FIRST hit of an ability. The FIRST hit of both Twin Slashes and Rapid Strikes are all that would be buffed. Never waste the buff on skills that do weak first hits like those two.
(As an aside, I can't recall if the +20% damage is applied to just one of the two Twin Slashes initial hits, or both. Probably only one of them...)
As for the healing skills stacking: yes, they do.0 -
Vanchatron✭✭Ah OK, because I asked the same question on another forum and the reply I got was:Blood Craze and Swallow Soul both give you health. They dont stack, they are just 2 different hots that can be applied on a target and both will heal you.
