I still like highlords more =/
ds helps a lot imo if you get good claws. Highlords imho is for the richer people.
otherwise go venom route with shide like you said.
you read what i said tho right? because if i use highlords over shide or a GG FCR ammy:
1) I'll lose not only lose +1 skill that goes directly into venom and traps, but the an extra point in fade and claw block too (which in the end is a lost of 2 points that could have gone into synergies)
2) Hybrids tend to have poor res and ar, so to counter the bad res i use shide which gives 20 res all (that allows me to free up 20 res from charms) allowing me to use 32020s instead of 20/5s for more AR and Max Damage
3)The life from an ammy like storm hide is godly because combine with BO it gives more life.
4) Im only at 148 str (thats with a str fcr ring) and i'd need to put a shitload into str to use dancers (or else i cant use feral/runic claws).
5) Not only that but if you use highlords you wont have enough str to use spirit shield on swap for bo for even more life or a 4xdol shield for rep if you need it for certain l8z duels. and while that 200+ life may not seem alot, sometimes its all you need to tank that 1 extra hit before you die. And the longer you can survive, the more damage you and dish out in the end.
so basically if you can live for 5x hits of 4k damage (4x5=20k), but if you die in like 4 hits (4.5kx4=18k). in the long run, living more and doing a little less damage at higher AR and stuff is better. (think of it as vita zon vs glass zon).
i think gaining all of that in the end (life/stats/res/trap damage) > the small boost of 36% deadly strike (a % chance to do more ww damage) from highlords
however, every man to his own opinion i guess
