Stealth 40 - any idea of "natural" skill number is factored higher than skill with items?
Slashing 34 - realized I'm not really planning to use too many base weapon styles as they are set up to chain as nicely as the CS ones seem to be
Envenom 40 - Planning to go this high puts me at the 2nd highest poison for 3 categories, I am going to have DoT on my main hand, the Strength debuff on the left hand, and a dagger with snare on it for runners in my bag.
Critical Strike 39 - Opening with 21 -> 34 -> 39, then 18 -> 25 till death or panic flee starts. If he turns to flee - most people are too panicked to run through you - ill be swapping in my snare dagger to snare. I did think about investing in the 44, 50 styles - but I decided I wasn't going to spend that many spec points on a style that starts out with an uncontrollable action (evade). Even at this level I can throw in a 12 -> 29 post evade.
Dual Wield 36 - not going for styles here - going for damage add. At 36 - I will be hitting a 43% chance of nailing the 2nd weapon, if what I read is correct about each point in DW bringing up my chance to hit by .5%
I'm thinking that with the debuff/dot plus higher DW - I won't be losing too much damage-wise by not taking CS to 50 in the long haul, cause I think the opportunity to run the full Ripper combo is gonna be relatively rare (cause he should be dead before I get to that last style unless I manage to evade at the very beginning).
So I'm shooting for solid damage, with some flexibility with poisons.
