Help: Stamina Nightblade DW/Bow (Redguard) DPS build Medium Armor

CallMeBigPapi
So I'm just starting to get the hang of MMORPG technicalities since ESOTU is the first one I've played. I keep hitting dead ends trying to look for a solid pvp build since there are so many builds out there and most of the stuff I come across is useless. Could someone point me in the right direction or share a build that has worked for them? Also, would I focus on critical hits, and if so how do I get past crit resistance?

Further details:
-All my attribute points are in Stamina
-I usually run solo
-I'm not concerned about doing AoE damage
-I'm a situational player that tends to use a bow in large fights and DW in a one on one situation or stealthed attack
-I could definitely use advice in allocating CP since I just passed level 50 and am now at champion rank 80
-I want to be able to sneak up on people and finish them in very few hits, so in other words my priority is being able to land a quick kill

It might be useful for you guys to know my current layout

So i basically just buff using grim focus and shadowy disguise cause of the guaranteed crit hit, then i switch to dw, fly in with ambush, breach armor with surprise attack, use flying blade for the 20% damage boost, spam flurry and spam killer's blade at below 25% health, weaving light attacks into every ability prior to flurry.

Main Bar (DW)
1) Surprise attack (Shadow ability)
2) Killers Blade
3) Flying Blade (for buff of 20% damage)
4) Ambush (morph of teleport strike ability)
5)Flurry (morph of dw ability rapid strikes)

Back Bar (Bow/ Buff)
1)Aspect of terror (yet to be morphed)
2) Free Slot for any ability
3) Shadowy Disguise
4) Lethal Arrow (The morph of snipe)
5) Merciless Resolve (buff/ morph of grim focus)

Ultimate for both: Werewolf Transformation (I plan on changing it to flawless dawnbreaker for passive weapon damage)

*** Note: i'm open to all suggestions and will most likely respec and possibly change morphs to match a suggested build, so nothing is out of the question

Thanks in advance,

A confused mmorpg noob

    Rapid strikes, rending slashes, hidden blade, killers blade and shuffle.

    Bow bar add endless hail. It's good to park up under it, use poison injection over lethal arrow, far more useful and spammable.

    If not using maelstrom axes use twin maces, possibly for you, go 5 night mothers as solo play and 4 hundings rage. The permenent debuff you'll get from mothers is better than hundings damage boost on the 5th perk. On the maces use 1 crushing enchant and 1 power glyph.

    Stack all cp for now into mighty and stam recovery and red tree half into mighty and ele defender.

    The 2 sets above are 6 trait crafted. Go all medium to keep your crit nice and high.

    Perfectly fine for WW it's beast, but use it on your mace bar as you'll get the glyph enchants and mace passive.

    Its all up to you ^^ But it'll be cool if you'll add Surprise Attack or Concealed Weapon on DW bar. Just in case (i like thinking that Shaddow Barrier 2/2 passive will help me in close combat and it procs on Swadow abilities activation). Mirage buff + Shadow Barrier 4 sec procs from Surprise attacks = both Minor and Major physical and spell protection buffs.

    But its just me, imma noob, too ^^
