    You would be stuck using light armor, and may cause problems using weapons other than claw, fist. Would be interesting having a high crit rate like an archer, may help with the lower damage output of claw/fist compared to other bm weapons.

    Blademasters are not Archer's, they don't get any damage bonus from DEX, so using that build will deal a pretty low damage. The criticals won't even make it up for the loss of STR.

    Evasion is not enough to fight mobs, it's ok for Archer's because they are ranged, but BM's have to fight in close combat, so not being able to wear Heavy Armor will make it more difficult for this. At PvP evasion might help against some people, but not that much against a PvP build or +% accuracy rings, or just accuracy powders.

    You won't be able to solo AoE, to tank, to be a damage dealer...so pretty much that build fails.
