    It looks decent for the AT. If energy is still an issue, you can always consider getting Rush on DB, though you should also fare okay leaning on Reaper's Caress more as well.

    I'd prob get R3 on Dragon's Bite, as the AT lacks Reaper's Embrace it becomes your heavy hitter instead. If you have energy issues using it heavily, then you may want to get R2 + Dragon's Rush on it instead. Crimson Blood also can't proc FotS w/o the adv. You'll also have a hefty melee dmg penalty when using BCR w/ Deflect's special adv. I may just get Deflect to R3 instead. ou could consider Chained Kunai for the HoT adv and/or Open Wound adv, though you'd lose the lunge.
