Everything looks good, except your last trait in shadow arts; Leeching Venoms. You have one venom equipped, and thats your elite. So not worth it. Take Shadows Rejuvenation instead bro :-)

My impression when talking about “power” build is to utilize both Revealed Training and Hidden Killer on top of stacking Might.

Also traiting for Power of Inertia without Feline Grace will not work very well — and since you’re not traiting for Shadow’s Rej anyway, you might as well put those points into DA or maybe into Acro for a more meaningful “power” build.

Another thing, if you’re going for a “power” build and stacking might, the only rune that makes sense is Rune of Strength (or Hoelbrak for some anti-condition). 25% movement speed is nice but you don’t have to take a rune for it. You can easily swap your utility for Signet of Shadow when out of combat then swap back before combat. During combat, you’ll be shadowstepping instead of running anyway, so that 25% movement speed on your rune is just a dead weight.

Otherwise, your build is great, too defensive for my taste, but it’s not a “power” build.

Of course, build around your playstyle.

Yea but it’s still similar… instead of 15k you will see maybe 12k. The ONE thing that has been buffed since then are strength runes and might stacking in general but yea. Either way the build is obviously not really viable just for fun

Revealed Training will put you on 3k. It’s a great buff to heartseeker coming out of a backstab.
