Admittedly, I have no idea what I'm doing with this guy. I need to know if this is a decent build as I so far have him 25% slotted into this build. Any changes or tweaks are much appreciated! By the way, if it's at the least an okay build for what it is, please say so. If it is really horrible then I'll change it. There are infamy issues too as this is my first villain ever, so I can't make an extremely costly build as of yet.

Thanks again!

P.S. I know many of you are going to say that Mace Mastery is a no-no with Dual Blades. I do realize the animation swap is very slow, but part of the build is for fun. I will appreciate input on a second monster P.V.E. build. I guess all that I'm really asking is; is this in the least a viable build or am I really doing myself that much of a disservice playing this build?

I think the power choice is ok. Your toon will be tougher if you can take the fighting pool. But since you take most of the dual blades powers and go pretty deep into the patron power pool, I don't think you can do so.

For the slotting, I would put a fifth slot for some of your attacks. I doubt that your blinding feint can hit well. Also, I don't think you need to put so many slots into combat jumping and fast healing. I would put kinetic combat into vengeful slice instead of mako's bite, as you don't benefit a lot from ranged defense.

It's a personal preference for the patron power pool. However, I would slot the patron powers better, unless your intention is to really do knockback.

I re-slot your build below.
