I'd have to go with Nightshade. While he may be a bit slow, if you use him right, he can take out smaller enemies in one to two hits. The trick is: you have to get directly behind the enemy in his Stealth Mode, then attack said enemy with the swipe. It does over 300 damage normally. Plus, you can get lots of Gold this way.

Yeah, I discovered this last night. Nightshade all the way for me in any Nightshade vs Luminous discussion. Luminous is powerful, but pretty boring compared to Nightshade, imo.

Matt- TBH that just souns too slow and repetitive to me, and 300 damage isn't that much as far as villains go. Especially with the limited area he hits, and setup time to I really wanted to like Nightshade, but I can't stand playing him.

Luminous has good theme music, but his voice is kinda annoying.

And i don't have the dark pack yet...

Here are both their backstories, they posted Nightshade's just today -

Nightshade -

A charismatic ninja thief, Nightshade is by far the most famous burglar in the history of Skylands. He also happens to be very smooth, charming, and old-school cool. Having been born rich, he doesnt't need the treasure he so expertly steals. He only does it to show off how awesome he is...

Luminous -

Being from the element of Light, Luminous has always feared the dark. Even his own shadow used to frighten him. So he became determined to find the source of light so intense that no amount of darkness could exist in its presence. This quest drove him glaringly mad and he set out to destroy all who opposed him.
