1The King of the Arena

In the arenas Darkrunner preserve its great force, it burst damage and its mobility make it one of the best and feared class in 1 vs 1.

You need to try to stay always in range of your jump skills like CHARGECharge and SHADOW STEPShadow Step and remember to dont waste your best buffs like FREERUNNERFreerunner, FRENZYFrenzy and BATTLE FOCUSBattle Focus.

Against other Darkrunner is just a parry and shackle challenge, just try to interrupts her main skills and be careful about her skills cooldown.

Against Healers(Argent, Paladin, Templar, ...) you need to attack as much as possible, and be careful when he cast heal skills and try to interrupt it with knock down, you can also use LEECHLeech for interrupt her casts.
In this build i dont have added STALKER'S MARKStalker's Mark, but it will be usefull for reduce healing force.

Against Tanks(like Blighter, Abolisher, ...) is little bit complicated, her REDOUBTRedoubt will make you useless for 20 seconds, in this time you need to take advantage of your mobility by running away, or just hiding youself with STEALTHStealth skill...you can also try LEECHLeech for earn few seconds.

Against Mages(Daggerspell, Arcanist, Witchcraft, ...) FRENZY is your friend, just you need to dodge BANSHEE WAILBanshee Wail then run around the enemy and knock it down.

Against Archers(Primeval, Stone arrow, ...) you need to stay close, fortunately you've a really great mobility, so this is not a problem for you, also if your enemy is a primeval.

Instead against a Stonearrows you need to play as if is a tank because they use REDOUBTRedoubt, you can try to use LEECHLeech before your enemy.

2The Assassin

The Darkrunner can play in different ways depends to the different situations, for example in mass pvp you're the assassin.

Thanks to its great mobility you can slink fast through enemy lines and destroy healers and mages.

The basic skills that you need to use in these situations are:
TELEPORTATIONTeleportation DROP BACKDrop Back SHADOW STEPShadow Step CHARGECharge TIGER STRIKETiger Strike BEHIND ENEMY LINESBehind Enemy Lines and STEALTHStealth

Take care,Darkrunner is a powerfull DD class, but its defense is not also good, and for this reason you have to play evasive by using STEALTHStealth DROPBACKDrop Back and TIGER STRIKETiger Strike for confusing enemies.

3Weapons

This guide is focused on 2H Nodachi weapon, but you can use almost all melee weapons at end game, depends on situations and versus who you're.

I raccomand you to use the Nodachi Ayanad for its quick burst, otherwise also Obsidian Greatsword are good for its crit damage boost

The choice is yours, the Darkrunner is a very versatile class.
