Ok I've been having trouble with my nightblade and not sure if I should even keep going with him honestly.

So for my playstyle I like to dual wield. And I also don't like stealth

I am using assassin's blade, ambush, and siphon at the moment as my main skills. I am having issues though still with healing, and doing any form of aoe as I personally think steel tornado stamina cost is horrible for the damage it actually does

I was wondering if siphon is my best heal option? And what other options do I have for aoe other then whirlwind?

    Steel tornado (morph of whirlwind) is actually the best aoe in the game. If you don't like stealth, I think you're playing the wrong class to begin with. A lot of your damage boosts come from stealth

    True that, NB rely on stealth.

    The best class skills available to you are: Cloak, Ambush, Surprise Attack, Assassin's Blade and Drain Power. Siphoning can also be pretty handy.

    For Weapon Skills: Dual Wiels, Bow and 2H

    2H has an excellent skills for a bit more self sustain: Rally. Other than that, there's Vigor from the Alliance War skills. Just keep using Rally until you get Vigor.

    From 2H: Rally, Wrecking Blow and Executioner (optional, you have a Stam Execute). From DW: Steel Tornado and Flying Blade (when you don't use Bow). From Bow: Snipe and Venom Arrow (counter WW)

    With that, you should be good to go

    Fyi the Only reason you should restart a dude is if your class is just too insynergistic. If not, then you can always switch up skills and attributes!

    I always feel bad when someone gives up on a character, if anything you can use them to grind out CPs for alts :)
