Yeah sure. Every other class can technically start a fight first. But in imperial city a Nightblade is the only class that can pick a fight and then run away and come back continually till they finally win.
Time to start nerfing healing skills because spamming them makes you survive too!
Yes I do have a problem with a skill that allows you to run away every time you are about to lose, and a skill that allows you to drag mobs over someone and then dissapear. I'm sorry your cloak is getting nerfed. But NBs brought it on themselves when they started using cheap tactics in imperial city. And I'm trying not to laugh about the heals comment... But unless your specced as a healer now days your heals aren't worth ***.
BoL, you are next!
Let me guess you're gonna tell me to use aoe or flare right? Flare is an absolutely useless skill other than for nightblades and it's not justifiable to have with a Stam build. And aoe... Aoe just puts all the mobs you dragged over me onto me while you stealth out.
Another noob Nightblade mad lol

I'll reiterate for you: The supposed upcoming nerf to Cloak will in no way change anything about the things you struggle with. Try to get better.

Lol if you're on ps4 I'd gladly show you who the noob is. If you don't just run away every time.

Alright I'm not normally one to gripe but this issue is becoming apparently more and more obvious to me as I've been playing imperial city. Last night I had the pleasure of running into a magicka NB who would constantly spam cloak to avoid my hits, and then attack. No biggy for me usually but every single time I got him low on health he'd still spam cloak out and run through another room full of npcs trying to drag me through them. I stopped chasing. But then he'd just regen up and try again. Failing every time. This lasted for the course of 15 minutes till he finally decided to drag one of the roaming bosses on me that I could then not get rid of while he continued to spam cloak and pick at me while I dealt with the boss. To me this is a joke.
Zenimax has addressed shield stacking, dodge rolling, and bolt spamming. But a NB can still continually spam cloak to not only dodge you. But escape between all the NPCs that you are then forced to deal with. I'm looking for constructive ideas here. None of the "get gud" comments because theirs absolutely no skill in spamming invisibility so they can't hit you but you can hit them. Cloak either needs som sort of treatment like dodge roll, theirs no reason you should be using it more than atleast every 4 seconds without a punishment. Or my other idea is while a NB is in combat with another person npcs will still see them through invisibility to avoid the fact they can run away and use them as a wall every time. But I'm open to ideas. Let's be constructive here.
Alright so I'm a Stam tank DK that uses 2H and 1H&shield. I can't really afford to equip another magicka skill and caltrops is expensive as hell. This build is effective against any type of player even NBs. Unless they are cloak spammers. So what your telling me is I need to alter and effectively gimp myself to deal with the select few who are determined to spam cloak to avoid damage where as I don't have to do anything like this for any other class?

Wow another nerf cloak thread from someone who can't be bothered to slot radiant magelight, and the (so far) 9 people who agree with him. I have absolutely no trouble with cloaked NBs because I slot a spell to counter it, instead of coming onto the forums and whining about what an awful player I am.
first off, he did use paragraphs.Scyantific wrote: »First off:
Paragraphs. Use them.
See they say they don't have heals but practically every magicka NB you run into is gonna be using a restro staff in one slot healing, as well as spamming cloak... And with the healing and damage nerf my DK doesn't really reliably self heal anyways. Don't play a Templar though and I know they definitely still can.first off, he did use paragraphs.Scyantific wrote: »First off:

2nd, back when I played, people suggested giving abilities such as cloak the BE treatment(or a slight variation) however, I don't know how good or bad spamming is nowadays, so there is not much I can really offer:/ However, I will say, that if NBs still dont have decent self heals, then cloak', in my opinion, CANNOT be removed, as NBs would then be useless. But its been almost half a year now, too much has changed for me to say very much on the issue
so you wanna nerf an entire class cause your DK build that can handle all other builds except this 1 nb (which couldnt kill you) just because he could get away from you and you're stupid enough to chase him like some tunnel visioning moron into a bunch of mobs.
just wanna clear it up.
so why do you want it nerfed it he couldnt even kill you without the help of a boss. if you slotted any of the counters you could have killed him when he tried to run.
Im a nb myself and I slot piercing mark to fight enemy nbs. I much rather use that spot for shuffle, or magnum shot or "name any other ability that isnt useless for anything but nbs".

Detect Potions, AoEs, Flare, Caltrops, Piercing Mark, Radiant Magelight.
It's your own fault for not using these counters to Cloak, it's not a build issue, because he obviously couldn't kill you, just need Detect Potions or another counter to finish him off when he runs away.

No offense Teargrants..Even though I agree 100% with you...But you are 100% the wrong person to make this statement..since you spent the past couple months doing the same thing with Sorcs.

I don't think I ever recall Teargrants asking for Sorc buffs.

What has any of that got to do with the situation?
None of these stop spamming of cloak, nearly all of them are useless in general and against spamming, and none of them stop spamming and running trough NPCs.
