Melee/Assault SW

[JoryGlory]

I would try this build with r40/rr40 and full Anni./Merc.: http://www.ror.builders/career/shadow-w ... ,3982,3948 .
Its a full Melee Group build, i recommend to use as M1 LF and as M2 FM because as a Melee Dps without Charge and AoE Detaunt they can be lifesaver, WP is good as an exit oh **** button self kickback with aoe snare.
Next important things, to catch up Kiter would be to use Flee with 2x AP Pots and QE.
Rotation wise i would engage an enemy at 65 feet in Skirmish Stance kite him down with Td., BA, SA, SFA and then switch in Assault Stance to finish with GS, EW and BA + VoN.
I would use Bal. + Armor Pots and stack Melee Crit + WS.

Have fun and a nice day

If you're going for a melee build, I would not use a bali pot. Use a str pot instead.

I also wouldn't invest points in QE. Would rather have higher dodge/disrupt for all instances than a small proccing movement speed buff.

Weapon skill talis in your gear.

Thank you very much guys, very informative, very useful information. I will experiment a bit and bookmark this page for future reference

Assault SW is pretty much becoming the meta right now in Order 6v6 so embrace it now while you still can, the double ini debuff is mandatory for near 100% crit rate on most targets for your group.

Don't forget that is gear dependent .

Team up with SM for 200 inidebuff and Blurring Shock on every hit

Spoiler:

Wow that's pretty brutal. SM+SW would be a really fun duo at the very least.

Yea it is
Can completely negate over 40RR points spent into ini and reduced crit along with a tactic slot to reduce it another 10% with a simple proc with 100% uptime

Running any other build and you are playing the class wrong

How are you losing 238 total points from initiative? Isn’t the max debuff value 200 (max Khaine tree Nature’s Blade + WS)?

first photo probably had a zealot ini buff that was shattered in 2nd.

Destro is free to rank in initiative and futile strikes.

And if you’re rr80 you can invest 1 point into a single stat! Wow nice!

It’s okay though since SW don’t run this tactic on mass. I mean sure, all the real premades who run SW use this tactic but since 6v6 doesn’t exist then I guess this is fine.
