Right now I'm using charging bull, spinning blades, throwing blades, and hidden blades. Upgrading everything but throwing blades.
What abilities do you run with your SS?

Bull/throwing/hidden/roll
I should get rid of roll and just go for spinning, but I've gotten way too used to rolling for fun.

Almost the same as you, except I exchange Charging Bull for To The Death. I figure it helps the team out,

That's pretty much what i use when i am going all offense and i know i have team support to help with shieldbearers. Otherwise i replace either throwing blades or charging bull with war horn to handle said shieldbearers. Also i have seen other sisters use to the death pretty well for boss killing. you pretty much can't go wrong with this class, all of her moves are really viable the only real "must have" is hidden blades.

I'm super low promotes, so what I say may not even be applicable, but..
I always have combat roll. Just too much utility for me to pass up.
I like charging bull for the mobility, constant uptime for emergency guard, and bonus CC. Its short cooldown it what does it for me. Even a little longer cooldown and I'd swap it out.
Spinning blades. Great burst damage and AoE.
Lastly, I can't decide between To the Death (a suggestion from here on these boards), Throwing blades, or my personal favorite, Hidden Blades.
I prefer Hidden blades, it's just hard to get all the other passives I want with it.

I use Throwing / Hidden / War Horn / Charging Bull.
Charging Bull for close in, or rushing to teammates that need help.
Hidden Blades for damage.
War Horn so I can panic other enemies and focus on one target, or make them vulnerable for teammates.
Throwing Blades is good for interrupting enemies (assassins in particular) from hitting teammates, and it goes well with Flow of Battle since you don't need to chase enemies and has many hits.

I use spinning blades and flashing steel to go along with throwing blades and charge. I guess I like those spinning attacks.

Throwing Knives
Spinning Blades
War Cry
To The Death
Throwing Knives and Spinning Blades I alternate between whenever I see one's cooldown get to half. War Cry is for when my Guard gets low. To the Death.

War Cry
War Horn
(last 2 up to you)
War Cry and then War Horn.. and repeat. Pretty effective.

With my low promotion levels:
Charging Bull
To The Death
Hidden Blades
Spinning Blades
I imagine I'll be dropping Charging Bull and To The Death eventually once my promotions become reasonable, if ever. I'll probably swap them with War Cry/Combat Roll and War Horn.

Triple blades and Parry. Parry is fun to use once you get used to it. (I wish it did more damage though or briefly stunned) It also looks cool to parry the dragon's breath.

Charging/Throwing/Hidden/Warhorn
Plus I have both the passives that have a chance of proccing panic, and it goes off...often. In a group, this brand of "passive CC" works really well.

I like Parry as well, but ultimately it isn't good enough when compared to the other options in my opinion.Triple blades and Parry. Parry is fun to use once you get used to it. (I wish it did more damage though or briefly stunned) It also looks cool to parry the dragon's breath.

I've run a lot of different combinations and what works for me on Nightmare is Charging Bull, Combat Roll, Throwing Blades and Deathblow.
Charging Bull and Deathblow are a must. Charging Bull gives you amazing mobility, knockdowns, Guard and low cooldowns. As for Deathblow, never underestimate how good that ability is. It kills about anything below 50% health. Add the no cooldown if you kill your target and you can spam it pretty easily, no cooldown whatsoever. It lay waste to whole groups of enemies in less than 3 seconds. It's a crazy good ability.
Throwing Blades deals a lot of damage and has a low cooldown. I can easily get 1 second cooldowns between "Charging Bull + Throwing Blades" cycles. This ability makes it so you can just spam Charging Bull and Throwing Blades and you'll never stop dishing out damage while having almost no cooldown. It does fit perfectly in the flow of abilities cycling
As for my last ability, I decided against using Hidden Blades. Hidden Blades is an amazing ability no question there, but I already have no cooldown by cycling between the first 3, having a fourth one would only delay the use of another ability. The advantage of not taking Hidden Blades is you can throw in a support ability, something you need to reduce your weaknesses. Combat Roll allows you to do just that. It deals with knockdowns, especially shield enemies, and allow you to recover from all effects. It's really a nice ability to complete the build. Yes you'll do slightly less damage than if you went with Hidden Blades, but you'll survive in more situations. I think the fast pace of the first 3 skills largely compensate for the lost of Hidden Blades.

I don´t wanna pi... people off but seriously, throw your points where you want. It doesn´t matter with a overpowered character

Back to topic: Bullrush, Spinning blades, Throwing Blades, as 4th I used To the death, hidden blades or combat roll. All working well.

To the Death, Throwing Blades, Spinning Blades, Hidden Blades. With right gear there are no cooldowns, even with dramatically low promotions. Shield-wielders are pain in the rear though.

'Spinning Blades', 'Throwing Blades', 'Hidden Blades' and 'Combat Roll'.
This one. Combat Roll is a must on NM.
