Advanced Stealth theoretically will offer more damage per trash pull than Tactical Critical, but if you immediately get hit by a Force or Tech attack (non-weapon damage), you will lose the buff before you get a chance to use it.
Since Revealing Weakness makes it so your Backstab is treated as though it was from Stealth, Jarring Strike will trigger with each Backstab against a target with Revealing Weakness.
Explosive Cells makes Volatile Substance an AoE, including it applying Revealing Weakness to the targets it damages, so you can knock multiple people over with Backstabs that deal boosted damage.
If you’re having trouble with surviving, take Flash Bang instead of Holotraverse at level 68.
There are 2 components to taking out a group of trash with Concealment, an AoE burst component and a single-target priority component.
This first component is centered around getting off your big hits, and detonating Volatile Substance on the whole group. It should be enough to wipe out all standard and weak enemies.
Use Backstab from Stealth to grant a TA and apply Advanced Stealth, This makes your next non-DoT attack autocrit, but you can't make it work for every group of trash. You can use Veiled Strike for a strong single-target hit or Fragmentation Grenade for a strong AoE.
This is the single-target priority you’ll be executing against stronger enemies. It should only be necessary to do this in heroics or against bosses.
Your objective is to just use the hardest-hitting attack you have available or enable other hard-hitting attacks to go off. Most of the time, you’ll be interlacing Veiled Strikes, Lacerations, and Backstabs.
