Hi my sneaky fellow stamNBs! I have recently posted this post in my guild forum(exile boys) and i feel like sharing it with u all.
In my opinion for the upcoming patch these are the
4 Most effective playstyles+build for stamblade [* and () for extra info]
1. Consistence burst build (Jack of all trades)
SETS - marksman/hundings/alchemist set/ravager/willows (of cos 1 molag 1 BS 3 agi rings is awesome as well)
*vma weapon is almost a must for this burstly style unless master weapons are v16 then its a different story
*morkuldin is decent as well but i feel that the damage done by the sword is just too low and slow. and 10% proc chance is really low imho
2. Poison dot build (only terrible against magtemplar)
SETS - sheer venom set/Vicecannon of Venom(new set)/morag tong(dirty set)/briarheart set(get dmg from dot crit)
*bow poison got buff. as a dot build bow is almost a must have!
*USE AXE! for extra bleed
3. roll dodge build (not proven playstyle however i will test it out as soon as patch is out!)
SETS - Eternal hunt(almost a must have)/morag tong(since all pieces are well fitted)/skrimischer set(well fitted set as well)
*bow is good as u get move speed
*Invest more cp into dodge rolly+ use shuffle for extra dodgies
*take out some impenetrable pieces on armor and replace them with well fitted
4. Phew Phew MUTHERFKERs build (or u can say its a ganking build)
SETS - Marksman(a *** must have for this build)/alchemist/hawks eye(an important set too)/Vicecannon of Venom(new set)/hundingsrage(u can never go wrong with HR)
*2 easy ways to play - 1.snipe or 2. charge heavy attack then use poison injection into ambush + SA/Dawnbreaker/incapitating strike + bash + execute
*major and minor buffs are important in ganking build also, rally+merciless
*empower is a good option as well that 20% bonus damage + crit stealth + shadow mundus stone = dead ppl + qq(1v1 me bro)
In my opinion must have sets for Stamblade are
= Hundings rage
= Willows (for non cp camp/dueling/raids)
= Marksman (just too flexible as u get rings as well)
= 1 BS 1 MOLAG(get it in vonder this week!) 3 agi rings
Notable mentions = malubeth monster set, shieldbreaker, blackrose(if u really wanna be a hipster tank stamNB -.-)
That should cover most of the things in this topic.
So, what build/playstyle do u play on Stamblade? & Do leave me suggestions on anything that I left out and interesting ideas as well!
