Ratings
Extremely obnoxious to play against and very easy to do well with it, but there's very little you can do on tis to outplay an opponent. Which is unfortunate when your damage isn't enough to bruteforce a win because then you'll end up in a stalemate.
Thanks to the new Shadowarts changes this build has become incredibly effective, for how easy it is to execute. If you dont greed with this there is no way your dying. Very high stealth uptime and the option to permastealth with your smokefields and Bow 2 + Boundingdodger. I am having great success with it, especially in 1vX situations. Personally i would run "cover of shadows", if you spend your Initiative wisely you will have enough even without shadowsrejuvenation and the extra Protection turns you into a raidboss.
