Need some advise on duel wield pvp rotation

There are quite a lot of duel wield builds out there however none really go into detail as to the rotation one uses. Most of them show different sets to use etc. My favourite toon is my NB bow build of which I am quite good at. I've learned over the years that although the sets I use to make it stronger, or more tanky or more ganky etc it still comes down to the order of my skills I use when in different fight scenarios, what enchantments, skills, traits, CP points and mundus stones.

I got nailed extremely hard by a duel wielding night blade in IC last night and I mean I went down fast! He or she also managed to kill several of my team mates. He was grouped but still you could tell he was getting the maximum amount of damage in just a second. It wasn't a gank type setting either, we were engaged with him and one other.

For now I'll be trying these out on my NB and Arcanist.

Using duel wield what skill rotation are you using in a group type combat?

If you are stealthed and trying to gank what skill rotation?

Are you using axes, maces, swords?

What enchantments and traits and mundus stones?

Favourite CP points?

Many thanks in advance and may the skeevers be ever in your favor!

    Guess it's worth reposting this short Arc writeup. Here's my u40 DW Arc DD build, slightly outdated, now go 64 into hp and maybe replace Draugrkin with crafted Dragon's Appetite to make the build more forgiving (at the cost of damage). The food being used is Orzorga's Tripe Trifle Pocket, the blue max hp + stam regen one.

    General playstyle is to buff up, get in close on back Inferno bar and go 1 > 2 > 3 (bar swap during stun) > 1 > 2 spam (restart if enemy doesn't die). Always weave light attacks, especially on Inferno bar, don't sweat it if Flail doesn't weave cleanly (stupid cast time). Stay close so your Vatesh laser doesn't break, drop Dawnbreaker when going for the kill. On the defensive, never let your lifesteal HoT effects drop, use one Vigor then spam Impervious while HoT effects refill you.
