Summary
I've been trying to find a build where I could have heavy damage while at the same time be able to survive fights without having to "hide" while fighting via stealthing. I've always felt that stealthing during a fight is a way of hiding and a cowardly way to fight. So I think I've found a build to do just that.

Weapon and Skill Details
All my weapons are ascended altho ascended isn't really needed. You can replace pistols with a short-bow or replace a pistol with a sword. I just use the pistols for ranged and daggers for face to face fights.
I only use Hide in Shadows for the heal. I don't attack while stealthed from it and I only use refuge if I'm rezzing somebody or need it to escape but I don't attack while stealthed.
You can replace Sig of Shadows with whatever. I have it mainly for mobility. I sometimes will change it out for a poison or something before fighting. But it really makes no difference as far as how much damage or whatever unless you change it with the sig for power. Can't remember what it's called. That will give your crit damage a little more oomph.
II. Traits
Deadly Arts
Critical Strikes
Shadow Arts
Acrobatics
Trait Details
You can take the point from Acrobatics and put it in Deadly Arts if you like. I had it in Deadly Arts and just put it in Acrobatics for a little more vitality. I noticed no difference in damage output.

Upgrade Item Details
My armor is ascended also. The difference between ascended and exotic may just seem like a few numbers but when put all together it makes a big difference. Altho ascended is not needed for this build it's just what I have.
The Omnomberry Ghosts I use just for the ghostly affects it gives me. You can use rare veggie pizza also I think is what it's called. The % to steal life. This is very useful in this build as in your traits you steal health and your food does too. It helps to stay alive. And because a lot of precision was sacrificed for toughness and vitality the Maintenance Oil makes up that difference. And you'll have fury a lot so your crit chance will be around 94% with fury.
