Been trying to find information on BiS Enchantments for TR but can seem to find a solid answer.
Any suggestions?
I hear Tenebrous isn't the greatest, maybe just have one of them.
I'm currently using Radiant in Offensive, is there anything better?

It used to be Darks for the TR, for the Crit. Now Darks have ArPen and Azure have Crit. I have a ton of Darks but I use them mostly for Utility slots.
I have found Savage and Brutal to be fairly nice because they can give you 2 decent stat boosts as opposed to one good boost. I do have some Draconic slotted as well.
Honestly, I am still trying to figure that out

Dark enchants never had crit, but PvE TRs usually needed to enchant for the armor pen because the Swashbuckling Captain set had none.
BiS enchantment is flexible and depends on your other gear. You want your resistance ignored at least comfortably at 40% before you even think about stacking anything else though.
This thread is helping me a lot. I am dying too much in PvE. I just have the basic black ice set. Paragon path is scoundrel. Main and off hand artifacts. I will check my slots next. I am having best survivability with Smoke Bomb, Lashing Blade and Blade Fury. Used to use Blitz, but the PBAoE of Blade Fury hits more. At wills, Sky Flourish and Cloud of Steel. What are the best Daily's for a Scoundrel?

i play scoundrel as well and i think this build works best if you're stacking deflection and life steal. Every one of my defensive slots get silvery. Arm. pen. isnt tough to stack anymore so i'm trading off some of my dark enchants for radiants for more power or maybe silvery, but i've never really valued recovery that much (maybe i'm being wrong about it, idk). Duelist Flurry and CoS are my go-to at-wills in both pvp and pve.
For encounters, i use dazing strike over lashing blade for the aoe, esp from stealth, smoke bomb and shadow strike. With this combination i can take advantage of the bonus damage i get from attacking CC'd mobs cuz of all the dazes and i make sure to use my encounters from stealth most of the time cuz of the crit bleed on SB and the greater aoe cone on DS.
Daily's are whirlwind of blades and bloodbath. I love using em from stealth then popping a DS or SB jus before stealth ends. For 3+ adds, i use WoB and the power boost it gives is sweet Bloodbath is often used to buy me a few seconds for CDs or stealth.
in general, i try to keep mobs dazed by timing my SB and stealthed DS and lucky crits for that 2.5 sec daze. Duelist guarantees me a crit in its cycle. im at 50% deflection base which helps keep me alive and a cheap cleric companion is good too, but my augment gives me a lot of power so i often switch out for weaker mobs.
I've got a mix of azure and radiant in defense slots, and dark, silvery, azure, and radiant cycling my offense, but I think I'll reconsider a savage or brutal or five. I've got terror for weapon and briartwine for armor, which I like, personally, but. Thanks! This is an immensely helpful thread!
Edit: The radiant in defense slots are for the HP and the azure for the defense, of course. Went from ~23k HP at 60 to ~57.5k at 70. And then I started fighting dragons again. Stupid tails.
In all seriousness, there was a point in gearing where getting enough arpen on a TR was tricky, because of the Swash set stats.
Yip, armor pen was the hardest stat to get at one stage. Last module I stacked lots of radiant enchants on my cw and now I have to redistribute some to alts to get crit up instead of power... Seems that each mod i've had to rebalance my stats, because of new boons, equipment and so on.

Tenebrous is really bad it got a huge nerf . They have ITC and multiple version have no use at all.
Silvery and Dark is good for offensive slot both .
For defensive slots i think Silvery is the best to have .
cruel:
offense power+ recovery
defense defense+deflect
savage:
offense cricital+arp
defense: sorry cant remember
over all those give better stats then other "old" enchantments .i also use radiant for more hp.
Savage= HP + Def
@beckylunatic
Then WHY IN THE HELL DID I USE Darks? LOL
I DON'T KNOW!?

Hope my setup helps even a little.
