Nightblade Hate from Developers

ipkonfigcub18_ESO

This has always bothered me about the Nightblades and their armor:

We have to farm Mobs to make our gear.

• Heavy - Smack a node, guaranteed mat drop
• Cloth - Loot a plant, guaranteed mat drop
• Medium - Kill animals that drop it, NOT a guaranteed drop

With all of the issues this class has, you really have to ask: DID ANYONE at Zenimax actually think this class out thoroughly at all?!

ipkonfig...why does that name sound so familiar? Are you the guy that everyone used to scream at in the World of Warcraft BGs?

I'll be honest, hide is the hardest mat to gather in my opinion. Don't think it's as absurd ad NB hate, though. Just something that seemed like a good idea at the time.

Dude, it's obvious the Devs do not, nor do they plan to ever play melee. It's ridiculous the one-sidedness of this game when it comes to things like this.

I'm TRYING so hard to hang onto hope... But the more they do *** like fix vampire passives before fixing nightblade passives, just makes it incredibly hard.

Like NB stealth bugging over their OWN DoT's they've placed on players/mobs. If that was something that effected bolt escape, it would have been fixed weeks ago, as soon as it was discovered.

Get your head out of your ass Zenimage.

I'm being sarcastic on the NB comment, but you must admit it's quite fitting

Looks like somebody thought you were serious, though, hehehe ...

No one cares if you are playing NB with medium armor.

Replace "Nightblades" with "all classes" that are going with medium armor and we have a valid point.

Quaesivi

Not just NB with medium armor, any class that decides to go melee, who also happens to wear medium armor, they are the ones royally... -done the thing with the screwdriver- (just so it wouldn't be a language issue).

Harakh

It is not a NB problem it is a Medium Armor problem so it is ok cause you can farm it in one Place better as Flowers or Clothing materials.

lololol. If it is so hard to get leather, why do i have 3 times the leather and clothing tempers than any other mat?

PBpsy

Nightblades in medium armor that is so week 6 after release.

1) Find a body of water(river, lake, pond, etc).
2) Kill the mudcrabs
3) There you go.

And if you kill level appropriate mudcrabs, you get a bit of exp as well.

Personally, as of late i've actually found farming medium armor mats easier than getting mats from nodes as there are mudcrabs everywhere. Also, leave the beaten path. Other mobs that drop med armor mats are usually up all the time just waiting to be killed, varies by zone-but there will always be some somewhere.

Exactly.

Instead of having to run routes from node to node, you find a spawn of mudcrabs and farm those. Case closed.

Nice having to move 10m area as opposed to victory laps in competition with bots and other players.

True, I do this, a lot. And yes you can get a good amount of mats. I'm only saying that it is not a 100% drop rate - still it's probably faster than Cloth mats.

Heavy armor, however, super easy to farm mats.

Guys I didn't make this thread for hate towards Zenimax, I was just pointing out a clueless point, it was a big sarcasm post. (was up late and bored)

Maulkin

I think it's the easiest to collect, especially when there are bots around.

I found a dungeon full of snakes which was abused by bots farming it for leather. I equipped a resto staff and healed them, getting my share of the drop & xp without having to fight a single snake

SilverWF

nobody farming Hide. It all can be got from deconstruct tons of gears what will you always have.

FegefeueR

Zenimax doesn't like Melee at all.

Bromburak

Not true, but they don't like damage that is based on stamina skills.
