DW 2h stamblade build I've been working on...need help

✭✭✭
I've been working on this stam nb build, in bgs it's stupidly powerful, but I am struggling to get the correct cp allocation to get it into cyrodil, I don't want to run a bow in cyrodil as I like this playstyle, I would appreciate from the forum some constructive help with a decent cp allocation, at the minute I'm around 100k In the hole with cp reallocation alone, here's the build:
Race: Woodelf
Mundus: Serpent
Drink: Dubious
Potions: tri-pots
Vampire stage 4
Gear: 5.1.1
1 pc kraghs 1 pc kena
Spriggans jewellery and front bar maul
2 infused weapon damage
1 robust stam recovery
Nirnhoned Spriggan Maul
5 pcs shacklebreaker
4 impen 3 well fitted tri enchants on all big pieces
2 master axes back bar nirnhoned and sharpened , 1 disease enchant 1 shock enchant
Front bar runs double dot poisons
Skills
Dw back bar
Rending, piercing mark, relentless, vigor, cloak, ult: temporal guard
2h front bar
Suprise attack,reverse slice, rally, Ambush, fear incap
Essentially you play this exactly the same as you would any other nb, but instead of opening with LA poison inject, your opener from stealth is HA rend, i use the psijic ulti as our defensive ulti, very trolly if used right, and the minor protection while on our back bar is very welcome,
Not ideal to use relentless on the back bar but when faced with multiple people, a clean heavy attack into focus will generally put someone into execute range, especially if they was closely huddled next to their friend and took some of your 2h splash damage, piercing mark is a bit of a flex spot but for me I love spotting snipe stackers and just refreshing the mark so the zerg they was picking on can hunt them down(honestly so much hate mail for doing this) also helps in 1v1s with another nb HA into rend into piercing mark,
Thanks for any help you can provide with the cp allocation even if a skill should be remorphed/replaced,

mursie✭✭✭✭✭solid setup. your dw bar looks more defensive / buff oriented so not sure nirn/sharpened are need there. maybe infused with weapon damage enchant and infused with either stamina regen or something else..
the 2h bar is pretty staple. I've run this same build and setup but bone pirate instead of shackle. I seem to always go battle axe to for more bleeds. could allow you to use skoria since you'll have rend bleed, twin blade and blunt bleeds, heavy axe bleed, and double dot poisons. a lot of dots.
pierce is definitely a flex spot and largely duplicative with surprise attack. that's where I'd probably try another buff like quick cloak or double take.
sorry I can't help with cp. I play bg's and no cp cyro. I find cp to be a mystery.0 -

✭I mean, at 810 cp, you can put like 40 or 50 in all the important stuff. The % difference isn't going to make much of an impact unless you're going for niche build like block tanks/ snipers/ etc.
Fyi. Only you can see the stealthed mark target, no one else can. Stop that skill unless you're using it for reapers mark.
How are you removing snares? You're not. You need to. That will up you're gameplay a ton. Drop mark for shuffle. Gain 25% aoe reduction and snare removal so you can actually cloak away.0 -
Seenoevil✭✭✭I run nirn and sharpened to help buff the initial hit of the rending and heavy attack,thanks for the shout on the reapers mark, must just be a happy coincidence the zerg running there own stealth detection, shuffles a good call
I like the maul to really mess with 90% of cyrodil in heavy armour do think I could just run skorias without the 2h axe bleed?? Should be enough dots??0 -
Seenoevil✭✭✭Just swapped around the shacklebreaker for Bone pirate.
The monster helm to skorias
Dropped piercing for shuffle
Dropped 2h execute and put focus in its place
put leeching strikes on the back bar where focus was,
See how this pans out shall we0 -
Seenoevil✭✭✭Sustain is phenomenal but lacking a lil damage, replacing recovery enchant for weapon damage, switching to warrior mundus, putting poisons on dw bar, running, beserker enchant on the front,
