The Nightblade is a very strong and powerful DPS class. Nightblades can use stealth and quick damage attacks or siphon the life of of an enemy and restore their own health and resources. With multiple burst abilities, DoTs, and an strong execute skill, they can be very strong in most aspects of play.
With this build there are 2 directions you can go. Vampire, or Standard. The posted build is standard, however the only change with the Vampire is your spammable. This would swap from Swallow Soul to Arterial Burst

Flex | If you run a vampire build you can swap out Swallow Soul with [Arterial Burst] as your spam...keep in mind you will become melee so there will be times where SS will be more useful than AB | |||
