    Having three different passives is totally irrational and unneeded. The way the game is now, one passive is good enough with two maybe being not as needed as before.

    I whipped up something that may be of use to you. I've whipped it up purely for PVE use.

    Vindicator: The Rush of Battle (3/3)
    Vindicator: Modified Gear (2/2)
    Mastery: Dexterity Mastery (1/1)

    DEX is your primary superstat with CON and INT serving as your secondary superstats. STR can be achieved through talents and gear. You also should be on the lookout for Crit Chance gear and Dodge gear for they'll come in handy much later on when you start getting the Silver Champion items.

    Night Warrior serves as your DPS passive and offers you stealth protection when you use Sneak (one of the two powers you'll automatically receive when you pick Night Warrior along with Shadow Strike). It'll buff all of your damage as well as grant you both stealth and some dodge/avoidance (the latter may be up for question since I'm not quite sure at the moment).

    Masterful Dodge and Evasive Maneuvers/w the Sleight of Mind advantage will offer you dodge/avoidance, which will help with survivability and the heal ticks you'll get from running Bountiful Chi Resurgence/w the Resurgent Reiki advantage. With your CON being high enough, Resurgence will make a perfect good self-heal. Intensity is your active offense/hold breaker and it'll provide you some DEX and STR when active.

    Form of the Tempest will be your form. Since this build will be capable of bleeds, you can swap out Form of the Tempest with Form of the Swordsman if you like. The damage and energy return scale with your DEX. Only difference is that Form of the Tempest's return energy for every crit you make while Form of the Swordsman return energy for every bleed you apply.

    Your single target attacks will be Reaper's Embrace, Shadow Strike (use Shadow Strike when you're in stealth mode), Smoke Bomb Lunge. Scything Blade and Dragon Kick are your AoE attacks.

    Hope this build will be of help to you and your ninja character.
