    Solo or group pve?

    For group pve try:

    DW

    Assassins blade morphed to Killers Blade
    Veiled Strike morphed to Surprise Attack
    Whirlwind morphed to Steel Tornado
    Hidden Blade morphed to whatever you want
    Expert Hunter morphed to Evil Hunter

    Ultimate: Dawnbreaker morphed to Flawless Dawnbreaker

    Bow

    Caltrops morphed to Anti-cavalry
    Vigor morphed to Resolving Vigor
    Poison Arrow morphed to Poison Injection
    Volley morphed to Arrow Barrage
    Grim Focus morphed to Relentless Focus

    Ultimate: Meteor morphed to Ice Comet

    Use 5 medium 2 heavy with infused on chest, legs and helm. Dvines on the rest. Make chest and legs or helm heavy.
    5 Hundings and 2 Nights Silence on armor. Make all weapons Nights Silence.
    Go with 2 maces with sharpened imo. Or if you really want to sacrifice boss dps for more crit use precise maces or sharpened daggers. Precise on bow.

    Warrior Mundus stone.

    Use Caltrops and Arrow Barrage then Spam Steel Tornado on trash mobs. Keep Relentless Focus up. Keep Evil Hunter up.

    For boss attack weave Surprise Attack while refreshing caltrops, volley and relentless focus. Keep Poison Injection up. Keep buff from hidden Blade up. At 25% spam Killers Blade.

    Always use Blue max hp/stam food.

    Hope this helps!

    While the build you suggested is really good, as a VR2 that needs help with a build I don't think he has access to caltrops, vigor, meteor or even 6 traits researched on all gear and weapon. ..

    If OP want something less strong but more easy to build I'd suggest something like this:

    Research 6 traits for the medium armor ASAP or find someone who can craft you Hunding Rage and use the setup Reeko suggested, until then go 5 Ashen Grip and Night Silence on Armor and weapons.

    Maces are optimal for DPS but are quite ugly...

    Regarding skills you want to have Expert Hunter\Evil Hunter always on for critical chance as well as a Major Brutality Buff (Hidden Blade) and Relentless Focus.

    DW Bar, execute and AOE
    Assassins Blade morphed to Killers Blade
    Whirlwind morphed to Steel Tornado
    Blur morphed to Double Take
    Expert Hunter morphed to Evil Hunter
    Hidden Blade morphed to Flying Blade
    Ultimate: Soul Shred morphed to Soul Tether

    Bow Bar, ranged DPS
    Snipe morphed to Focused Arim
    Arrow Spray morphed to Bombard
    Volley morphed to Arrow Barrage
    Mark Target morphed to Reaper's Mark
    Grim Focus morphed to Relentless Focus
    Ultimate: Dawnbreaker morphed to Flawless Dawnbreaker if you have it.

    Keep in mind that this setup has no self-heal whatso-ever beside the heal Reaper's Mark gives you back when your target gets killed. The build previously suggested is clearly more complete and better but harder to obtain.
    I suggest you work toward that, PVPing, hunting lorebooks and levelling Undaunted.

    Thats true somtimes i forget people might not have all those things lol.

    If you do not have access to Dawnbreaker or Meteor i suggest Death Stroke morphed to Soul Harvest in DW bar. Build up ultimate faster and use it during execute phase on bosses for HUGE execute damage! And perhaps Consuming Darkness morphed to Veil of Blades on your bow bar for aoe and dmg mitigation.

    If you do not have caltrops and/or vigor Use Strife morphed to Swallow soul for heals and Blur morphed to Mirage for more survivability.
