Ok thanks and how would this work.....Fencing-tactics-anatomy-healing-parry-poisoning-and ninjitsu if I use trap boxes and petals to not have resist on this char. my question with this template is. can you use ninjitsu without stealth or hiding or something else? is ninjitsu effective with the other skills I named?

Hiding and stealth just let you stealth once you drop a smoke bomb....there is way more to ninjitsu then smoke bombs. In pvp animal form and death strikes them selves can be enough to change a battle...

Death Strike damage is based on points in Hiding/Stealth, so without them it's pretty useless, however, Ninjitsu is still useful for Animal Form and Darts/Stars for Poisoning at range.

Will ninjitsu be the best thing to compliment a fencer with poisoning even if I don't have hiding or stealth? or would I be better off trying something besides ninjitsu for a poisoning fencer?

Most dexxers are running either Bushido or Ninjitsu or both, or two weapon skills.

If you're going Parry, I'd be tempted to make it 4/6 casting. And with that I'd look at going Chiv or Spellweaving as alternatives to Ninjitsu.

For pvp everyone and his grandmother will try and dismount you.
After that they kill your pet, and your'e kinda f*cked.
This is why you want ninjutsu.

Mirror images are also very nice (so when u get dismountet, spam thise. they will help deflect melee damage)
If u have a splintering weapon (and yes you really want one of those)
U can use focus attack so you "enhance" the hit XX on your weapon..Fx splint 20 becomes 40.
So this is also a very usefull ninjutsu thing u can use.

for a starter template, try this.
120 weapon (dosent really matter so much)
120 resist (swap this if u want)
080 nox
100 ninjutsu
100 ana
100 tact
100 healing.

(add +20 ninjutsu on juwels to hit 120)

For a more advances setup you can try this (when u feel ready)
swap ana for 100 alchemy

couple questions if I go 120 fencing-100 poisoning 100 resist-100 healing 105 tactics-100 anat- 100 ninja. even if I don't use parry will I have any chance vs dexxers? because it seems more like a mage killer temp am I right? and also does nox mean poisoning?

Yes nox means poisoning....can't remember if you need to go to 100 poisoning to get DP.....or if 80 or 90 will suffice. Look into that...no since wasting skill points.

It would seem that the advice here is that when you're ninja, you need not parry so much, because you will have mirror images handy to absorb the hits for you.

Its all about what you are up against.
To get max out of your char, its advisable that you invest in some soulstones.
The reason for this because, if u need parry, u can always swap something out, and swap parry in from a soulstone. (this is what most do).
Alot of mages thise days roll with parry, not so many dexxers.
