Been having a blast with this setup the last few days and wanted to share. Btw, don't criticize people's gear and builds in game. Idk why so many DAMP players think they have it all figured out. Don't knock something until you try it and consider that I'm just not going to play the same build with the same gear over and over again. This build gave me my fastest, easiest NM dragon solo to date.

Gear: Your best dagger in main hand, Audacity in your offhand

Abilities: War Cry upgraded with passive that increases damage versus taunted targets, Throwing Blades upgraded, Hidden Blades upgraded, Flashing steel

Upgraded War Cry triples your armor. Since the sister is capable of resetting long cooldowns in a hurry, you'll be running around damn near invincible to physical damage and the passive will add 20% damage which is also almost constant. It also allows you to build guard versus shield bearers- the SS's worst enemy.

Audacity will give you lots of spirit explosions for 2k+. You do lose all damage from off hand auto attacks but it's made up for by the damage and entertainment of the explosions. I rarely use auto attack on my sister anyway.

TB, HB, FS combo will allow both HB and FS to land while the 100% sunder is in effect. I chose FS because it can't be blocked by shields.

I'm not trying to suggest that this is better than other builds, just a fun alternative. Hope someone gets pleasure from it like I have.

I'll add a short video when I remember how that works.

It's just... How does SS actually do a war cry? ;)

Sounds fun though.

Silent Brother confirmed?

 

For the record, you can also stack the armor bonus from War Cry before you initiate if there are no enemies around to trigger the cooldown.

They can still scream without a tongue (actually it would be pretty horrific) and dwarven woman are "hairy" sometimes.

At the end, I left all the dragonlings redlined, lured them to the dragon and set 'em off. Stripped full guard from the dragon without attacking him due to the explosions.

Now that is "command grade" evil. I like it!

Adding a recommendation for the Enhanced War Cry ring. It claims to increase the duration by 30% but takes it from 4 seconds to 6.5, according to the tool tip. So, more like 55-60% increased duration. Also, Bloody Bargain is really nice for shortening War Cry's animation- if you're not as entertained by Audacity's gore as I am and don't own the PI amulet.

Has anyone tested or knows if the speed you gain from Bloody Bargain and Belt of Urgency can stack? :D

Thought about it. Then I remembered Bloody Bargain has 17% HoK...

I've never used war cry on her, may have to try this build.  I go green daggers, spinning blades and red symbol with counting marks that throws a projectile and does massive damage and charge of course.

Once I get War Cry I switch it out with Charge.  It pretty much made SS unkillable with melee/range damage in NM even with lower CON.  Still have to watch out for the mages though.. but you could ignore bolters. :P   It is like your personal Little Knight Music buff.

Fair point :D ... I am so stupid  :unsure:

 

I still like to use the belt on Templar and Lego (where is my sword with +50% attack speed and movement? at least the 50k icy balls are doing their job ^^)

The best part about people using the belt on their Lego or Templar is that you get to troll them by hitting the healing font after every map.... oops... sorry. :whistle:  Or try to hit them with healing mist while they are actively dodging you.....

I've tried this build for a couple promotes now, and I really like it. War Cry is the bomb!! She is nearly indestructible :)

I go straight for Flow of Battle (level 6), then War Cry with the upgrade (level 11), and she's ready for Perilous, or even Nightmare if the rest of the party is solid. My stats are only 46/50/50, so I don't think I'm relying on them that much...War Cry is just that good. I get Cutting Words between 12-15, depending on what I'm feeling.

I'm using Bloody Bargain and The Silencer, which both work extemely well with the SS. The speed and HoK from BB is great, and the Hidden Blades on Silencer procs a lot, which compliments the build very well.

For the other two abilities, I get Hidden Blades and Spinning Baldes, both upgraded. Hidden Blades is amazing, I think I would take it on any SS build, plus I can't really say no to Furious Blows...too much fun combined with Bloody Bargain on a kill streak. Spinning Blades I take mostly for fun....I find it satisfying when I get the whole chain to connect :).

I tried Flashing Steal, but just couldn't warm up to it on the SS. I know it can be useful at taking out Shield guys, but my Willpower is so low that it takes me multiple hits with FS to take down the Shield guys...and if I can't Attack with other things, or be constantly knocked down, I can't use Flow of Battle to recharge FS, so it takes forever and a day to kill shield guys on Per or NM. I'd rather just leave them for someone else, or at least let someone else agro them so I can flank, then go to town.

Using War Cry when not near enemies was a great idea. You can keep the 200% Armor bonus up pretty much all the time. That, combined with the rapid Guard generation and almost no Cooldowns, she is an absolute beast :)

I used to build her with charging Bull, throwing blades, spinning blades and War cry. Now I switched spinning blades to flashing steel because of the shield guys. It still takes a lot of time to kill them when you are solo, but a lot less then without it.

I use Hakkon mercy+ Savage thorn before I get War cry. Then I use two Hakkons with critical chance and cunning upgrades which I will replace soon with something else as my cunning is already 130. Probably attack or armor penetration.

So I have kept this post open on my computer for like 2 weeks waiting to try it out. I just played with lostmymidget and he was talking about this build and how awesome it was. I was like, I know I heard of that build! Need some more game time so I can promote and try this one out.
