Hi Timasse!!!

My answers may not work for everyone, but they work for me.

What abilities do you use?
(Underlined are the 3 I use most often)

Best caster feeder abilities:
[At any level] piercecast, pillarcast
[Only at high level] powercast. salvation

Best melee feeder abilities:
(use native blue skills before pink ofc)
[At any level] knockdown, backstab/bottomsup
[At high level] retribution/salvation

For samurai:
[At any level] multistrike, bottomsup/backstab
[At high level] twohitback/retribution, salvation

For paladin:
[At any level] knockdown, bottomsup/backstab
[At high level] twohitback/retribution, healback/salvation

For monk:
[At any level] doublestrike, crossstrike/knockdown
[At high level] twohitback, healback/salvation

For ninja:
[At any level] pathslash, jumpattack, doublestrike
[At high level] twohitback, healback/salvation


How many stats do you put in vitality? (On a tank and a robe user)
IMO the amount of stats in vitality isn't that important; it's mainly about the amount of HP based on your playstyle. If you do sneaky early on you can stat less and if your gear has +life then you may not have to stat any vitality. On a caster, I recommend going for something like 2.5k hp by level 71; on melee with tank armor, something like 4k hp by level 71 will make killing 3-spawn EPs a lot more fun. On melee with cloth armor, go for 6k hp by level 71. If you're using salvation and nice heals, you can get away with a lot less hp and have better survivability

Thanks for your opinion sir! Very very appreciated! Anybody else?

Figure out what is best for you by trial and error. BW probably solos the most consistently of all slashers. I would use his guide and adapt your own play style.

Salvation is super strong.

From my experience soloing I've noticed a few things.

Everyone likes to put salvation + points in intelligence. I'd rather put those points into vitality and those ability points into damage abilities.

For salvation to be good u gotta put a good 4 or 5 points into at least. If you have a heal charm summon a lvl 1 monster and spend all your mana self healing.

Always try to use at least one class ability. Samurai/monk you can use both class abilities. In general I believe that multistrike is inefficient for soloing.

non tanks and tanks alike go 70-90 vita (that's what I do). More physical defense (most damage taken is physical) and more life pool.
