Batman

I've been kicking around making a Batman themed character. This would be solo PvE with little concern on performance.

So basiclly I'm looking to build something classified as a natural/technological skill based character. This would mean Flashy magic powers would be avoided, or explainable as tech. What would Batman be in this universe?

Any ideas? I'm leaning stamina nightblade with emphasis on crit, stealth and two-handed maul (since Batman doesn't kill)

95% of my time has been with magblade. The other 5% is split between a low level dragonknight and stamblade. Wanted to get others thoughts on this concept.

    You are really on the only path - StamBlade.

    Go DW with 2H. The DW will give you a great ranged and AoE that would fit well.

    Batman did things long range and had the ability to escape.

    StamBlade would be best bet. Bow/2h - Batman has plenty of hand to hand combat skills but he is brutish, less finesse. DW in my opinion pushes finesse, where the 2H is more brutish. Batman needs his long range, hence the bow back bar.

    Now, race should be Nord or Imperial. Not for bonuses, but to go with the persona.

    Night Silence with Hundings Rage or Night Mother's with 2 set head/shoulders of your choosing.

    This is based on persona of what Batman has been in the comics, translated to ESO world.

    Hmmmm, maybe not for batman (unless referring to batarang with rope) but for a Ghost Rider or Spawn, maybe Scorpion[MK (that primal motif)] theme for sure.

    He always had a grappling hook and ended up tying up the bad guys.

    Dual Wield abilities with maces. Flying blade is your batarang and flurry looks like you're punching someone in a style similar to the Flash tv show.

    The new Dunmer costumes in the Crown Store make for awesome MK characters.

    This is true, I might have been too focused on the pointy spear part of chains. Side note: for mobs the chains synergy w/the ult would make sense...DK looking to mean Dark Knight perhaps?

    the 2H and bow sounds on point...i'd go with imperial...and, the dark knight has to be a a dragonknight...

    lots of different potions including a stealth potion...

    skill wise - I'd say reflective scales, stonefist, petrify, and magma armor are all key...

    Ebony armour for looks. DW/2H weapons. Use the throwing knife skill from DW as batarangs. Stamblade for the stealthy close combat attacks and the ability to have enemies fear the batman. Silver chain from fighters guild to use as bat grapple.

    Here are important things you're going to need:
    -A Manor house
    -A room inside with a bust and sigil stone on a desk, and near a pair of bookcases.
    -Two upright rods in between the bookcases
    -Earthtear Cavern set up with all your crafting equipment and various useful magical devices, along with a black horse
    -The GoHome addone to send you straight from one to the other (but only trigger it when you are near your polls)

    I had given this some thought when I was going to make my Khajiit nightblade, Cat-Man

    Zero Year is considered the introduction of a character in comics.

    "Zero Year is an eleven part story arc in the Batman comic book, written by Scott Snyder and penciled by Greg Capullo, which tells the untold tale of an inexperienced Bruce Wayne's formative years in his war on crime, before honing his craft and establishing himself as The Batman."
