Both Nimble Slash and Blinding Feint are not the best attacks that DB has to offer
[/ QUOTE ]Nimble slash certainly isn't, but blinding feint? That's like claws not taking follow up, or DM not taking soul drain.

Yeah, not that useful for brutes.
While Feint is a good damage boost, I rate it the same as Build Up for Brutes - something to take when there's nothing else you want. I think I'm taking it at 30, after my defenses are done.

Exactly. For brutes Blinding Feint is nice if you have nothing more important to take and if you have the necessary slots to spare. Otherwise taking and slotting it might even lower your dps and/or survivability.
If it has eyes, you can blind it, if it has blood, you can make it bleed, if it has a mouth, you can make it scream.
In my revised db/dark build, I have room for it as ile be taking out power slice as it aint really needed until about 30ish, when its used for the sweep combo.
However, atm, it stands with just 2 acc enhancements in it, and probs wont get much more in it for a while.
Definitely - 2 KB IOs will cover most instances - only Force Bolt and Earthquake spring to mind from enemy mobs. 5 will give you "complete immunity" unless there are multiple Earthquakes or lots of KB attacks hit you at once. I'd aim for 3 or 4 to be safe, though.
