can you reexplain this part right here:
If I were to remove Assassin’s Reward, the points would be placed in Shadow Arts to get the 25 point trait adding might (Hidden Assassin). If I were to remove Slowed Pulse, it would not be to add Shadow’s Embrace to remove boons because I hardly ever sit around for 3 seconds in stealth. I would sooner, and have already used Infusion of Shadow, which provides more damage and stealth applications to this particular back-stab / blind / healing build.
But lets go back to Slowed Pulse and its purpose here. When you use DB twice in this build (combined with Signet of Malice) you gain life regeneration. Now DB should only be used for this style of healing or as a safe opener. This is because you shouldn’t be building condition damage to begin with and stealth back-stabs will do way more damage. I’m also really fond of Dancing Dagger, but hey, that might just be me.
are you saying you gain health regen, when you DB twice (stack 6 bleeds) with just the Slowed Pulse trait…
correct me if i am wrong but the tooltip says “Grant 10 seconds of regeneration if you have 5 or more stacks of bleeding. This effect can trigger once every 30 seconds.” so that means you have to have bleeds on yourself (a condition on yourself), not on the enemy. so i would think that that trait slot would be better served as something else….

I think your utilities need to be more party based but definitely include Shadow Refuge because of the stealth and heal it can give to your teammates when they are in a bind or downed. And instead of 5 in crit strikes, I would put 5 more into Trickery for 3 more initiative so you can use your skills more.
