PvP Bladedancer Wolf-Build

[b]Please[/b] this is strictly a build and analysis post. It would greatly appreciated if you didn't bring any negativity like "Bladedancers are OP" or any of the sort into this thread. Thank You. So since the drop of House of Wolves and the next gear/guns I have been pondering how to make my Bladedancer build better. My solution came with the introduction of a new exotic Hunter piece, thus allowing for a new way to play! (I don't actually have it yet so use of this build is [i]tentative[/i]) In explaining to you all this build I will discuss gear stats, perks, and my personal assortment of weapondry. [b]Stealth Dancer[/b] Hand Cannons - primaries Snipers/Sidearms - secondaries Rockets - tertiary Gear stats: strength & intellect build Exotic gear: Khepri's Sting Skill Tree: Flux Grenade > Better Control 2x Jump > Vanish > Vanishing Strike* > Agility/Recovery stat > Shadowjack > Agility/Recovery stat > Hungering Blade Seems simple enough right? Starting with guns, on my Hunter I simply enjoy the feel of HCs more. I commonly rotate between Thorn, TLW, Timur's Lash, and now Red Hand IX. The secondaries are map dependant, so I would alternate between Snipers and Sidearms accordingly. Rockets are Rockets. The stats am I going for would allow me for more ArcBlade activations and more uses of Blink Strike, the latter of which is key to this build. Supplimented by agility and recovery I have the most mobility and recover time for quick confrontations. Now for the exotic and skill tree... The new exotic [b]Khepri's Sting[/b] comes with a double perk. It grants invisibility after crouching for a few seconds (Stalker on the tree) and melee striking a target from behind [i]while invisible[/i] does 4x the damage (Backstab on the tree). With these two exotic applied perks alone you already have an extremely deadly Blink Strike in PvP. Then you look at the tree build to see how nicely that works right!? The build I am going for is ambush stealth: flux grenade OHKOs; refrain from using [b]Blink[/b] because it breaks you out of stealth which is key; Vanish lets you go invisible while your ArcBlade is active; Shadowjack increases the duration of stealth; the [i]doubledipping[/i] Hungering Blade means kills with ArcBlade or BlinkStrike regen health. I missed one right? Vanishing Strike has an asterisk because the common player would rather use FastTwitch with this stat build to have nearly instant Blink Strikes. This is fine if you wish to do so but remember that Vanishing Strike turns you invisible after hitting a BlinkStrike [b]and[/b] Khepri's Sting works for [b]any blindspot melee not just Blink Strike[/b]. So that is my new Ambush Stealth build I will be using after acquiring the new exotic gauntlet. I hope you guys liked this new build review and I would be pleased to see all your opinions and reactions!
