Estranged son of the evil mutant Mystique, Kurt Wagner was raised by a fortune teller and grew up as part of a travelling circus in Germany. Using his unique physique and agility, he performed as the star acrobat for years until finally attempting escape. During this escape, Nightcrawler teleported for the first time, an event that lead to him being rescued from an angry mob by Professor Charles Xavier, who came to recruit him into the X-Men.Marvel Source
From there, Nightcrawler became a mainstay of the X-Men’s various incarnations, as well as other teams such as Excalibur. He uses his teleportation, expert swashbuckling and superhuman agility to defeat enemies quickly, but maintains a light-hearted and positive attitude and serves as a moral anchor for the team.
was thinking about blink strike, brimstone beatdown, 20 on incredible acorbatics and master swordsman
there is a lot of synergy on nightcrawler :
- dodge, very hight dodge, -> fearsome fist of farallah(+crit) and the unique fairy tale swashbuckler's boots(+attack speed)
- teleport, self explicit
- stealth with the white cloak paradise (unique)boosting damage rating, defense, tenacity, dive bomb, easly regen with medkit (look at the core)
You have a huge dodge, but when you take damage, you take ... so you can choose more def but it's mean lower your dodge (and synergy) or dps, for example advancing guard instead of heartseeker guard
ring : brutal strike
uru : physical
legendary : gugnir
blessing : hela
insigna : look at something for survive or physical crit brutal
enchant : serpent/sun and stone/tyr
depending on your stats, sun if you need more spirit and tyr if you don't have ~40% crit
runewords : lunar eclipse ou heartbreaker
you can choose between Excalibur's Saber, Dragon Fang and Death Seed
with excalibur you can make a build more focus on expert swordsman (and kick some teleport :P), dragon fang is just very good but I prefer death seed for more survivability (and brutal strike)
For pvp, use acrobatic escape

UPDATE :
add pretty useful rank 1, with good synergies.
flash and grab : teleport boost, pretty strong, useful when you spam swashbuckler slash.
obscuring brimstone : dodge synergy, dive bomb
I take the 2 points from incredible acrobatics.
oh and if you are stuff (unique, cosmic ring/medaillon) they are not rank 1 of course :p
2.2 : no changes
alpha -> final
2.3 :
Obscuring Brimstone is no longer marked as "Ranged" power, and has gained the "Teleport" tag
Dive Bomb radius has been increased and the issue with its teleport range has been fixed.
