Weapon Swap #1 - Set up engagements with Mark Target and Grim Focus. First attack should be the staff's heavy attack followed by weaving them with Strife until either A) Grim Focus turns to Assassin's Will, or B) target's health reaches 25% or below. If target's health reaches 25%, begin spam weaving with Assassin's Blade. IF the target happens to have enough health where Assassin's Will procs along with Assassin's Blade, ensure that you use the extra big hit, especially if it procs while the target is above 25% health.

Weapon Swap #2 - You will mostly use this bar when enemies get in close, or in pulls with preferably 3 or more targets. Sap Essence will help ensure that you and your allies will have a bit more of a health pool thanks to the healing it provides. Additionally, the use of Concealed Weapon will deal out more damage on single targets, which may catch the occasional player off their guard. Incapacitating Strike as a cheap ultimate will also help deal out unexpected damage. Like weapon swap one, if Assassin's Will procs, HIT IT! When your target reaches 25% or below, Assassin's Blade is your best friend.

The build is all about hitting hard and fast, while maintaining the ability to remain at range and hopefully making other melees pay for getting in close.
