Nightblade Dual Wild build

Magma_Claw
I need some help making a build with dual wield and heavy armor... well I wanna go dual wield DPS...with heavy armor.... So far I have been stacking stamina and the occasional health.. I am going to unlock steel storm soon and that is cool I think? Any help would be appreciated, I just need to know which abilities, which thing to stack points on and so on.

Note: I am level 14, yes I am new, but I want to make a good character from the start..

    I was doing dual wield and bow but I was using medium armor and found my character too squishy. I'm currently using two-handed and bow and still using medium armor and I have no problem soloing WBs and dolmens. I'm using the following skills: brawler, wrecking blow, ambush, forward momentum, evil hunter and my ultimate is flawless dawnbreaker, I got this set-up from detliasgaming.com.

    Take two hander as your secondary weapon. Use it as your buff, single target, execute bar. Use dual wield with your nb utility skills with aoe focus.

    By lvl 20 you should be able to unlock uppercut and brawler.

    Nightblades are all about priotising your target, and its useful when in dungeons with varietal adds. I prefer lotus fan than ambush since I can get the empower buff from wrecking blow. You can also 'kite' the mobs within a veil of blades as lotus fan deals snares to all targets it comes in contact with.

    By 30 you should be able to have this setup:

    Lotus fan
    Brawler
    Wrecking blow
    Executioner
    Double take

    Double take
    Steel tornado
    Blade cloak
    Killer's blade
    Shadowy disguise

    Both ultimates should be soul tether and / or veil of blades. I prefer soul tether simply because mass stun is effective as a nb and soul tether is the few siphon spells that you need as a stamina build.

    I assume that you might have done the fighters guild and mages guild quests. Taking evil hunter and the fg skill line passives are crucial to ultinate generation which will help lots with your dps and sustain.

    By 40 use this setup and you would be able to solo wb and dolmens. Of course if you can reach this even earlier all the better.

    Rally
    Evil hunter
    Wrecking blow
    Executioner
    Shadow image

    Lotus fan
    Mass hysteria
    Steel tornado
    Double take
    Sap essence

    This is a mobile build, weaving in and out of combat. Its fun, its viable and best of all, it requires minimal supervision on the buffs.

    Holler ingame to @Ravensworn if you want more info. Been using this build eversince I changed to pure melee and wearing 5 piece heavy and 2 medium for stamina sustain.
