Build request/advice/thought Dark Blast/Ninjitsu/weapon mastery sentinel

[Orius]

Hey folks recently joined HC after playing on live many moons ago, been flip flopping around from a number of different character concepts and builds as I try to revive my main (kat/WP scrap, which I don't want to remake entirely)

 

really enjoy sentinels and I've settled on a dark/ninja/weapon sent 

 

anyone played this combo, thoughts and/or builds they'd like to share? 

 

here's what i'm working with any advice, critiques or suggestions welcomed

 

I'm not too sure if i got the build sharing done correctly so let me know if not 

 

here's a few considerations 

 

- The sword is important in some respect, at least one of the sword powers is neccesary

- i really like the combination of caltrops with blinding powder and confuse proc so i'd be slow to drop it 

- mystic flight is also a given 

- most of the other powers are relatively changeable

 

ty in advance

 

Edit: I'm open to water blast in place of dark blast as it can thematically still work so any builds featuring that instead would be welcomed also although i do like the -tohit of dark, i'm not convinced of the damage capabilities of dark
