FULL BUILD SETUP

Dual Wield Rogue Assassin Build - Shadow Minstrel

Attributes

In this section, I would like to review the recommended attributes for Dual Wield Assassin Build. You will be required to pick them every level up, so optimizing and not wasting any of them will prove vital for the build.

There are a few major goals that should be reached:

Skills

The goal in my opinion is to get Combat Training and Coercion to a maximum. This will cover all the aspects that the main character would need in my opinion.

Specializations

The build uses two specializations which both improve the build:

Talents

There are many talents that you will want in the early game, so it might be hard to prioritize, but overall, you don't need many active ones.

One thing to note. Rogue will have a very fast attack speed late in the game, and with the amount of damage you deal most of the active talents will become useless.

Assassin

Bard

Rogue Tree

Dirty Fighting Tree

Below the Belt Tree

Deft Hands Tree

This tree is very important for exploration. You may wonder why. The obvious reason is chest unlocks. The more subtle reason is trap-disarming which will also provide some additional XP throughout the game. I also do not recommend picking all of the talents - only 2 or 3.

The last skill in the tree will be counteracted with a high Cunning of 40, so the talent point can be saved and put elsewhere.

Stealth Tree (Optional)

Dual Weapon

The main tree for maximum dual-wielding effectiveness.

Dual-Weapon Training Tree

Dual Striking Tree

Due to the limited amount of talent points, I do not go deeper here.
