It had never occurred to me to throw the Theft proc in Cauterizing Aura. Does that work?
I went with melee defence, being a pure blapper, using the invisibility pool. Also gave me extra spots for LoTGs.
Great fun. I'm sure you will enjoy immensely.
Took a peak and my defs are sitting at 34 R 30 M and 28 AoE. And it seems it did occur to me to throw a Theft in CA so hopefully it works.
