Nerf: Nightblade Invisible.

Soloeus

It is getting ridiculous. Nightblades are too powerful, being able to slip into invisibility without restriction upon any whim.

1. All actions (such as setting up a Siege Weapon) invoke a "timer." 5 seconds for a siege weapon. This leaves a person vulnerable while setting up siege weapons, and helps reduce the brainless tactic of oil pots everywhere.

2. When invisible is reused within 30 seconds of itself, it should cost 2x.


They start invisible, stealth up an oil pot, hit everyone with it, then right back to invisible again. Occasionally you will see a person "flicker" coming out of Invis long enough to attack and retreat.

Bolt Escape was nerfed, Bat Swarm was nerfed and now Nightblades need it. This is a fix.

Nightblades everywhere would be quite pleased if the skill actually functioned like this.

Or actually functioned properly at all.

Arsenic_Touch

Are you trying to be funny? you actually want them to nerf an ability that is currently bugged and doesn't work properly? HA!

aco5712

Its bugged like mentioned before but when it does work, a detect pot/magelight will break it straight up. Any DoT will pop you out aswell. L2P before you go calling for nerfs

Are we playing the same game? Because this ability on ESO is bugged and even when a snake is looking in your general direction, stealth breaks....

Reiterpallasch

2.5 sec invisible that costs 1/4 of your MP and is broken by any action or even nothing at all is insanely OP. Nerf plz.

BrassRazoo

It should cost double if used within 4 seconds, just like BE.
See how they like it.

Orchish

Detection potions.

Ozriel

It may be an ivis pot btw.. different again.

If only Bolt Escape and Bat Swarm were nerfed, instead of killing many.

Stop begging for nerfs, it's pitiful. The skill is bugged for one and you need to step it up clearly. Can't stand people like you, whine and try to ruin a game because you yourself have a bad time against such a flawed skill.

It's been breaking for me when a frog farts in my general direction.

Cody

im sorry im sounding like this, but im getting tired of you people wanting to have bugged out abilities nerfed. the NB cloak IS BUGGED AND DOES NOT WORK HALF THE TIME TO BEGIN WITH. half the time it wont activate, yet still cost the magicka, the other half it WILL activate, then turn off half a second later. just try it, you will see.

bolt escape nerfed? ye, 100+ ultimate from 1 charge through raid
bat swarming in flock, did 2k damage up to 6 targets and then bolt escape and repeat.

ye, nerfed

Lynx7386

He's just complaining, he's probably a vampiric sorceror bummed that all of his OP skills are getting balanced.

Try playing a class that's been completely FUBAR bugged since beta and is only just now -starting- to see some decent improvements.

Artemiisia

nerf OP instead

Cyberdown

Right now, DK is OP, Sorc is OP, Templars are OP, and now nightblade are OP.

This thread makes it official...classes are balanced.

A game achieves balance when all classes are whined about for being OP.

PaulD

So run magelight. I do. Oddly enough, they seldom come near me.

Yeah its like sneaking people see that rotating orb and go "better not get close to that guy"

strange right?

you cant actually see the rotating orb on enemies in pvp, on friendlies yes, enemies no

Cody

oh, and just to point it out. that "flickering" NB you saw, may have been trying to use their cloak, only for it to bug out. they also could have run the duration, but id wager it was bugging out. oh, and another thing, you cant just pour oil on people, then use cloak and escape. if you do ANY damage, to an enemy, the cloak will deactivate. SOMETIMES it may work, but more often than not it won't. the only exception I have seen is poison/venom arrow, and that is the poison damage. have you played the class at all? if not, you need to. you also need to try cloak, and you will see how buggy it is. cloak is not like bolt escape and all those other widely loved abilities. you cant "see" it used, the only way you can actually "see" it, is to use it yourself. then you will see how buggy it is.

heck I almost replaced it a few weeks ago, I about got fed up with it bugging out. You do understand how often it bugs out right? if you are in a battle with large numbers of enemies, there is at least a 50% chance it will not work. its infuriating. heck, not only that. it downright (snip) us NBs off!

/takes deep breath and counts to 10

forgive my rant, but like I stated a few hours ago, im tired of seeing these threads. im going to stop here before I hit the spamming point. Could you at least make a thread about an ability that actually DOES need some re-adjusting? ANY ability that actually DOES need re-adjusting, will work. But let me tell you, and others that think like you. shadow cloak is not one of them.
its buggy, its duration is not long enough to begin with, its easy to break, and sometimes it wont even activate at all. heck, the dang invisibility potion, that EVERY class, has access to, is better, than shadow cloak right now. IT is. it does not bug out, it can restore an attribute, it can give extra critical chance, and it lasts longer. cloak does none of these things(disguises morph either does not work, or every player happens to be using impenetrable) ok. NOW I will shut up. good night.
Self Edit. profanity.

Let's make a deal.

Invisible will work like you describe above.

HOWEVER, everytime i use invisible, i will stay invisible for 2.9 seconds no matter what. No uncloaking from taking damage, no uncloaking from magelight, no still being visible because i have mark on me or because one of the 10 enemies around me used a detection potion.

Kinda like sorcerer teleport never drains magicka and then does not teleport, my successfully cast invisibility will be 100% reliable.

Deal?

khele23eb17_ESO

Yep, they should nerf its synergy with magelight and detect potions...

Stx

I would fill up this entire chat box with laughter, but that would take to long.

Go ahead nerf it, its bugged to all hell anyway.

Blooddancer

"Hails of derisive laughter", nerf NBs now that is funny, I love it when someone gets ganked in PVP and thinks the entire game is out to get them.

If you're feeling vulnerable have a friend watch your back with invis detection active.

Tigeracer

When I first started, I loved the invisibility that I could do as a nightblade. After being possibly mentally handicapped up to VR1, I finally got rid of it. Now my character doesn't suck any more. I can tank, perform high DPS and solo every 4 man dungeon in craglorn, all without a dress and broomstick! So I don't care if you nerf what is SUPPOSED to be a nightblades best tool.

R0M2K

It should be buffed not nerfed, so you automatically enter shealth.
