''Blink'' Build

Full [Berserker's] Set of trinkets, armor and weapon stats

For both weapons take:

  • [Superior Sigils of Force and Accuracy] [Recommended] (Optional is to take Superior Sigil of Impact if you always fight with Foes that can be Knocked Down)
  • [Superior Runes of Scholar];
  • [Relic of the Deadeye].

BUILD TEMPLATE:

  • Critical Strikes: [Twin Fangs] - [Practiced Tolerance] - [No Quarter]
  • Trickery: [Thrill of the Crime] - [Bountiful Theft] - [Sleight of Hand]
  • Deadeye: [One in the Chamber] -[Premeditation] - [Fire for Effect]

Skills:

  • Healing Skill: [Withdraw]
  • Utility Skill 1 : [Shadowstep]
  • Utility Skill 2 : [Infiltrator's Signet] [Optional]
  • Utility Skill 3 : [Mercy] [Must]
  • Elite Skill: [Shadow Meld] [Must]

Pros:

  • Almost Permanent Max Stacks Boons for you and all Allies around you and your Targeted Foe;
  • Being a ''Shredder'' while being the ''Greatest Boon Support'';
  • Boons constantly applied are [Might; Fury; Vigor; Swiftness; Quickness; +Extra for kill is Regeneration];
  • Gain constant 5% [Strike Damage] from [Premeditation] or 6% if you have that Extra Regeneration from Kill;
  • [Quickness] on Staff usage is fun and fast;
  • Stealth from Deadeye's Skills give you constant [Malicious Hook Strike] for [400 Defiance Break] and Knock Down's, Which means a lot of Crowd Control;
  • No need on focusing on the Target you Targeted with Deadeye's Mark since you only need the boons from them, tho it is always damage bonus for the Targeted Foe;
  • Bonus thing, if you use some of the Staff Skins that ''Leave Traces'' behind them and have overall nice color patterns to leave as a trace, will be beautiful with Attack Animations of Staff Basic Attacks.

Cons:

  • If not done correctly on constant [Deadeye's Mark] usage and triggering the [Stolen Skill] [Steal Time] you loose overall damage and speed of actions;
  • You will need to switch from time to time to [Rifle] so it won't be as fast as the attacks from [Staff] but will still be decent long range damage with constant 10k damage on basic attacks [Brutal Aim] if done correctly;
  • Cooldowns from [Mercy] and [Shadow Meld] will be only break point for you to ''Survive'' until those skills refresh;
  • The Style of playing can be bland for constant usage of basic attacks and Skills 4 and 2;

Playstyle: For max potential (Of course it has variety of playstyles and it's flexible, as it's said above, you don't have to be fixed on your marked target)

Starting with the immediate [Deadeye's Mark]. You trigger the [Stolen Skill] then activate [Mercy] for the next [Stolen Skill] and then again [Deadeye's mark] and here you press skill 4 three times on MARKED TARGET till you reach [Max Stacks of Malice] and then use [Stolen Skill] to get into [Stealth] and then use basic attack [Malicious Hook Strike] to knock down enemy so you can get those extra [Quickness] Seconds. Repeat the skills that use initiative, recommended skill 4 [Dust Strike] for it, as it's the fastest skill to use and has range on it to get [Stacks of Malice], and use [Shadow Meld] for another [Malicious Hook Strike] on foe to get extra [Quickness] and also free [Stolen Skill] that you can use again on normal or [Max Stacks of Malice]. If you, by any chance, loose some of these in the process, or mess up with the [Stealth] attacks you can still use regularly the [Stolen Skills] and wait for the cooldown to wear off the skills while you are under the effects of those 5 boons, max 30 seconds for all of them besides [Swiftness] that is literally 1 minute active. Switch to [Rifle] when you need to escape and/or use long range safety attacks, tho while using a [Rifle] you will need to use [Stealth] management correctly for greater damage. But [Quickness] can help a lot in dealing basic attacks for [Vulnerability] and decent damage of already mentioned 10k.

Tips: Use [Valut] for evading /or/ When you are on full stacked boons for ''Triple Plunge Attack'' /or/ Advancing towards /or/ Getting to safety distance. Skill 3 is only for the [Immobilize] break, nothing more.

Bugs and overall needed Buffs and Changes

Bugs:

  • [Rifle] [Deadeye's Mark] must be able to Mark Every Foe and Entity in game, Including all of the Meta Events Bosses, since that is the obvious thing to add/fix for a class that is ''Single target marking and stacking''; (The issue for this might be with the ''Red Circle of Scope and It's Animation'' around the target that appears after using the [Deadeye's Mark], tho again, the chances for that many marks on same target, and for it to start glitching, is extremely low since there are less and less Deadeye Users);
  • Random cooldown on [Deadeye's Mark] that triggers even if there is no either ''Obscured, Miss, Evaded or Blocked''. That is happening for some reason and it's confusing;

Visual Issues:

  • [Double Tap] and [Spotter's Shot] bullet's are switched in animation. [Spotter's Shot] ''Purple chain/Immobilize'' animation is visible when using normal bullets from [Double Tap] and Vice Versa;
  • The [Death's Judgement]'s light on ''Sniper'' Orange/Yellow Line is diminished and faded like;

Needed Buffs: [PvE] ONLY!

  • Malicious [Death's Judgement]: Decreased power coefficient from 2.67 to 2.19. Bringing back the Damage Bonus per Malice to 25%;
  • [Shadow Flare]: Bringing back the [5 Time Pulse]. With the ''Reduced Power Coefficient from 2.0 to 1.0'' this may be reduced a little more but with the adjustment for that to add [Blindness] on pulse for 0.5 seconds;
  • Forbidden Adjustments or Nerfs for the [Relic of Deadeye]. The numbers must be seen and over powered for this class after all these are done by ArenaNet;

This is an Assassin/Rogue type of class in MMORP Games so the Extreme Damage needs to be shown. And not to mention HIGH Risk - HIGH Reward.
