Is there an alternate rune choice??
Not really any good alternative since you need the Might but you can try Adventurer or Durability
Is it viable to use Rending shade instead of Shadow’s Rejuvenation?
Along with trickery traits ofc
I love this a lot. Also is there something for those who main shortbow? :<
Yes! I would like to see a build for a short bow, I really want x)
Thank you for the build! I have been playing this for a while. Quick question: I have been using sigil of battle however. Why do you prefer sigil of doom over sigil of battle?
Doom sigil is overpowered its more reliable to keep putting pressure on enemies by just swapping
any update with this build ? since the 6th bonus from aristocracy is reworked :((
