Nery's Cold Dual Wield Melee Saboteur

Gameplay

Once you reach about level 40 your basic attack scheme is in place: Amarasta's Blade Burst and Ring of Steel are the active skills that help with crowd controll. Your two Blade Spirit and passive buffs weaken them further. When using Coldstones on your weapons activate both buffs, they stack!

Trash: Shadow Strike into the group, Amarasta's Blade Burst, Ring of Steel and hack away. Then jump to the next group.

Facetank bosses: Same as Trash but with the occational Thermite Mine thrown into the mix.

Kite bosses: Throw down Thermite Mine and try to lure the boss close to them. Shadow Strike into the mob, Amarasta's Blade Burst, Ring of Steel and hit a couple of times before running away. Rinse and repeat.
