Eternal Stealth · One-Hit Kill

In competitive PvP, fear of the unseen is far more lethal than raw frontal fire. The "Eternal Stealth" build sacrifices sustained brawling power to channel 100% of its resources into single-hit burst damage and seamless stealth reset chaining. You become a relentless phantom stalking the backlines—executing high-value squishies the moment their guard drops, then slipping back into the dark before retaliation lands.

1. Core Mechanics

The engine of this build is the [Master of Shadows] keystone talent: securing a player elimination immediately resets the cooldown of all stealth skills and grants a brief iframe/invulnerability window. By hyper-stacking armor penetration and critical strike damage, your opener backstab reliably one-shots squishy targets, triggering an uninterrupted kill-cloak-kill snowball loop.

2. Skill Loadout

Primary Weapon: Voidfang Daggers

Active Skills

  • Skill 1: Void Cloak
    • Usage: Enters extended True Stealth with a hefty movement speed boost, bypassing standard detection mechanics. The first attack breaking stealth is guaranteed to critically strike.
  • Skill 2: Lethal Backstab
    • Usage: When executed from behind the target, ignores 50% of enemy armor and deals massive execute bonus damage scaled to the target's missing HP.
  • Skill 3: Smoke Screen
    • Usage: Tactical panic button and disengage. Drops a thick smoke cloud that blinds targets within the radius and instantly cleanses all incoming debuffs and crowd control on cast.

4. Gameplay Tactics

At round start, scout the perimeter for isolated Sorcerers or Blackarrows. Activate Void Cloak and stalk unseen behind your target's back arc. Ensure your opener lands cleanly with Lethal Backstab—with optimized gear, this wipes out squishy health bars in one frame. Once the kill registers, the keystone procs; re-enter Void Cloak immediately and reposition for the next pick. If a target survives through defensive cooldowns or you get collapsed on, pop Smoke Screen to cleanse CC, break line of sight, and reset.

[!TIP] Trigger discipline is your greatest asset. Never open prematurely—wait until priority targets blow their defensive panic buttons or CC before initiating. Your margin for error is razor-thin.
