This is a port over from my DP Dark. I honestly thought my DP Dark was gonna suck moose butt, but leveraging the PBAOE and Barrier incarnate I am soloing DA on 4/8 with my DP Dark. I thought the Knives of Vengeance where going to give me trouble, but it seems I had more issues with those Kheldian police mobs then anything else. I needed to wipe a few times to figure out what I was doing wrong. Once I got their M.O. down it was much easier.
End result Water does have some real nice AOEs that work well with Dark.
On my DP Dark my fights start off with Spring Attack followed by Soul Drain and an AOE attack. Spring attack knocks downs foes a decent amount of the time. If I could get my hands on a KD procs for more chance to KD it might be better, but I'm okay with it either way. This is pretty much how I am going to do it with Water as well. Currently not at level 50. I do Whirlpool followed by Water Burst to get the KD. It seems Whirlpool forces mobs to run out of it. At 50 I can see Geyser being put into the mix and when that is down just add in Dark Pit for the stun to keep them in the AOE. Combined with the boost that Soul Drain gives Death Shroud things end up dead pretty quick.
I went with Agility because I want Geyser and a few other key attacks up as much as possible. In this instance I think recharge will beat out the DPS that musculature gives. As a simple example, My Geyser is at 59 seconds @ 461 DPS and yours is at 69 seconds @ 506 DPS. End result over 2 minute period I am dishing out 922 and your doing 506.
But you can pull up the builds side by side and make your own choices and changes.

The goal was simple...S/L/E softcap using Mace Mastery. (My original plan was Def and Resists using Lev, plus I find KO Blow too much fun. But that...that build was horrible).
I did it, but I felt dirty afterwards...
Thoughts? I would like to improve recharge buut...yeah...
