I was getting close to the end of my third life and i thought about making a TA build. Seeing the "standard" build from Andoris (https://www.ddo.com/forums/showthread.php/459818-Centered-Thief-Acrobat) i started messing with it in the builder to make some modifications. I ended up finding Half-Orc pretty good for TA and i couldn't find any build using that race, so i started this post. Here are the specs for lvl 20:

The enhancements/feats might be out of order but in general i think they are correct. The skills might be way off since i've never done a rogue.

So Half-Orc gets many useful enhancements including Brutality (+20% damage to helpless opponents, giving a 50% total with TA?!) which would be great with Sweeping Strikes. Comparing to Human i lost 20 Healing Amp and 1 Dex but got +3 to hit (+4 from Orchish Weapon Training -1 Imp Power Att) and +7 damage (+6 from Orchish Weapon Training +1 Imp Power Att) with QS. I was thinking about running with the wind stance from Master of Forms, so 20% doublestrike from TA + 25% from quickstrike + 7,5% from wind stance + 3% Opportunist for a total 55,5%.

Thing i would like to know:

- Has anyone tested this with brutality? Is it worth it?
- Anyone knows the gear for TA by level? from 1 to 20
- Would i be squishy until i reach end gear? I have no wisdom so my AC will be pretty low i guess

Comments and ideas are welcome
