So there you go, its intended. Let the trolling commense I guess.
Guess it is sword and board meta for Stam nb. Whatever. Time to switch it up anyway. Heck I will be running mage light on my bar as a stamina user.
On live I run sword and board with retreating manoeuvres and defensive stance but I'm not sure even that will be enough to get away from the zerg now.
Not for runnong. I don't usually put myself into a position to be zeroed down. And even when I do have to tuck tail and run I never riled on cloak to do so except to disappear after distance has been made which is still possible. This is a common misconception of players, both nb and non nb. An alright nb uses the ability to run. A great nb uses it to fight. Sure you can use cloak to get away. But in reality a good opponent will almost always prevent this. Since I always go into a fight with the premise my opponent is good, I never rely on cloak to get out of dodge. I use it for positioning at times, but the real treat came from removing dots and procing passives.
I mean through a fighting lens. Not being able to purge dots or proc passives when unable to use means I will have to mitigate more damage then before. Sword and board will make this possible.
You're talking about 1v1, 1v2, etc. I never run from a 1v1, that would be silly, I'm talking about getting mowed down by greater numbers, like during sieges, where I relied on retreating manoeuvres along with cloak. Now when a zerg comes running over a hill whilst you're fighting someone, an nb marks you, you're not getting away. You can try and run, but EVERYONE is going to see where you're going. I haven't an issue with magelight changes tbh, I doubt players will remember to keep it up half the time anyway, but the mark target thing is an unintended change, it wasn't even in the patch notes, and they're now saying its intended because they can't be bothered to go back in and make changes.
Everyone os able to see you on live now. Heck, one of our raid leaders uses mark to single players out. Also, cloak does not help much now when you get zerged because the zerg is spamming tornados. I personally never found cloak reliable in these situations to begin with. Dodgeroll, los, air expedition and sprinting.
Are you 100% sure about this? You're saying you can see the Mark that other NBs have placed? I've been away from game for a couple of months but even on a recent stream @Sypher said that only the NB that has placed the mark can see the player, and in my expereince, only the NB follows me whilst I cloak while marked, other players generally look lost. I know I certainly don't see the Mark of other NBs.

i have never tested it, no. I am just speaking from my experience. I have never seen a nb disappear while marked. Whether this is due to them not trying to cloak or someone also used a detect pot or something i am not sure. I personally have never seen it occur. That is not to say that is how it works. it is only an observation. dont take my word for it.

Currently on live, everyone can see a target who is marked. They changed it from 'only the caster and target' to everyone a while ago. I love running my own NB and marking others as they try to run, very apparent that marked targets can be seen by everyone.
And a side note, if you haven't noticed this is how it works on live that is likely part of why you think cloak doesn't work.

i have never tested it, no. I am just speaking from my experience. I have never seen a nb disappear while marked. Whether this is due to them not trying to cloak or someone also used a detect pot or something i am not sure. I personally have never seen it occur. That is not to say that is how it works. it is only an observation. dont take my word for it.
But you said you can see your guild leaders mark when he marks a target for everyone?
Currently on live, everyone can see a target who is marked. They changed it from 'only the caster and target' to everyone a while ago. I love running my own NB and marking others as they try to run, very apparent that marked targets can be seen by everyone.
And a side note, if you haven't noticed this is how it works on live that is likely part of why you think cloak doesn't work.
Wrong. Test it yourself, but I'll save you the time. You're wrong about how it works on live.
I have done this many times over during the last few weeks. I mark a NB on the other side of the battle field, they spam cloak to run away, my allies drive them to the ground without having to use any form of detection since I already marked them. If you just want to keep saying i'm wrong since i'm wrong then feel free, but unless this has changed since yesterday it is still the case.

Guess it is sword and board meta for Stam nb. Whatever. Time to switch it up anyway. Heck I will be running mage light on my bar as a stamina user.
On live I run sword and board with retreating manoeuvres and defensive stance but I'm not sure even that will be enough to get away from the zerg now.
Not for runnong. I don't usually put myself into a position to be zeroed down. And even when I do have to tuck tail and run I never riled on cloak to do so except to disappear after distance has been made which is still possible. This is a common misconception of players, both nb and non nb. An alright nb uses the ability to run. A great nb uses it to fight. Sure you can use cloak to get away. But in reality a good opponent will almost always prevent this. Since I always go into a fight with the premise my opponent is good, I never rely on cloak to get out of dodge. I use it for positioning at times, but the real treat came from removing dots and procing passives.
I mean through a fighting lens. Not being able to purge dots or proc passives when unable to use means I will have to mitigate more damage then before. Sword and board will make this possible.
You're talking about 1v1, 1v2, etc. I never run from a 1v1, that would be silly, I'm talking about getting mowed down by greater numbers, like during sieges, where I relied on retreating manoeuvres along with cloak. Now when a zerg comes running over a hill whilst you're fighting someone, an nb marks you, you're not getting away. You can try and run, but EVERYONE is going to see where you're going. I haven't an issue with magelight changes tbh, I doubt players will remember to keep it up half the time anyway, but the mark target thing is an unintended change, it wasn't even in the patch notes, and they're now saying its intended because they can't be bothered to go back in and make changes.
Everyone os able to see you on live now. Heck, one of our raid leaders uses mark to single players out. Also, cloak does not help much now when you get zerged because the zerg is spamming tornados. I personally never found cloak reliable in these situations to begin with. Dodgeroll, los, air expedition and sprinting.

This is my experience also. I mean if people think everyone can see them when they're marked now, they're in for a shock.

Yes, i know for a fact you can still see the mark itself. whether or not it disappears if they go into stealth i am not 100% on. I defer to sypher on that point. I must have never noticed or been in a situation where a nb was marked by another and could still disappear.

perhaps you have fallen into the same experiences as myself. Perhaps the nb never try to cloak. perhaps they ran out a mag and couldnt etc. Perhaps test it out in a controlled enviroment. Again i would defer to syoher on this unless you have tried a controlled test.

They either have magelight on, det pots or something else. Once a person is marked by someone else but cloaks, if you didn't mark him or use any counter you cannot see him (on live)
Got a clip which proves it, my friend marked a nightblade which vanished, he could execute him while I couldn't see him, look at 3 minutes and 17 seconds. Mister torture marks him, he disapears for me while Mister Torture executes him:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEm_wiVCD5M
But since ZOS said this change is intended, well GG Zos
Edit: If you get marked while trying to go into Clouding Swarm tough, then everyone can see you ^^

Guess it is sword and board meta for Stam nb. Whatever. Time to switch it up anyway. Heck I will be running mage light on my bar as a stamina user.
On live I run sword and board with retreating manoeuvres and defensive stance but I'm not sure even that will be enough to get away from the zerg now.
Not for runnong. I don't usually put myself into a position to be zeroed down. And even when I do have to tuck tail and run I never riled on cloak to do so except to disappear after distance has been made which is still possible. This is a common misconception of players, both nb and non nb. An alright nb uses the ability to run. A great nb uses it to fight. Sure you can use cloak to get away. But in reality a good opponent will almost always prevent this. Since I always go into a fight with the premise my opponent is good, I never rely on cloak to get out of dodge. I use it for positioning at times, but the real treat came from removing dots and procing passives.
I mean through a fighting lens. Not being able to purge dots or proc passives when unable to use means I will have to mitigate more damage then before. Sword and board will make this possible.
You're talking about 1v1, 1v2, etc. I never run from a 1v1, that would be silly, I'm talking about getting mowed down by greater numbers, like during sieges, where I relied on retreating manoeuvres along with cloak. Now when a zerg comes running over a hill whilst you're fighting someone, an nb marks you, you're not getting away. You can try and run, but EVERYONE is going to see where you're going. I haven't an issue with magelight changes tbh, I doubt players will remember to keep it up half the time anyway, but the mark target thing is an unintended change, it wasn't even in the patch notes, and they're now saying its intended because they can't be bothered to go back in and make changes.
Everyone os able to see you on live now. Heck, one of our raid leaders uses mark to single players out. Also, cloak does not help much now when you get zerged because the zerg is spamming tornados. I personally never found cloak reliable in these situations to begin with. Dodgeroll, los, air expedition and sprinting.
Are you 100% sure about this? You're saying you can see the Mark that other NBs have placed? I've been away from game for a couple of months but even on a recent stream @Sypher said that only the NB that has placed the mark can see the player, and in my expereince, only the NB follows me whilst I cloak while marked, other players generally look lost. I know I certainly don't see the Mark of other NBs.
i have never tested it, no. I am just speaking from my experience. I have never seen a nb disappear while marked. Whether this is due to them not trying to cloak or someone also used a detect pot or something i am not sure. I personally have never seen it occur. That is not to say that is how it works. it is only an observation. dont take my word for it.
But you said you can see your guild leaders mark when he marks a target for everyone?
Currently on live, everyone can see a target who is marked. They changed it from 'only the caster and target' to everyone a while ago. I love running my own NB and marking others as they try to run, very apparent that marked targets can be seen by everyone.
And a side note, if you haven't noticed this is how it works on live that is likely part of why you think cloak doesn't work.
Wrong. Test it yourself, but I'll save you the time. You're wrong about how it works on live.
I have done this many times over during the last few weeks. I mark a NB on the other side of the battle field, they spam cloak to run away, my allies drive them to the ground without having to use any form of detection since I already marked them. If you just want to keep saying i'm wrong since i'm wrong then feel free, but unless this has changed since yesterday it is still the case.
They either have magelight on, det pots or something else. Once a person is marked by someone else but cloaks, if you didn't mark him or use any counter you cannot see him (on live)
Got a clip which proves it, my friend marked a nightblade which vanished, he could execute him while I couldn't see him, look at 3 minutes and 17 seconds. Mister torture marks him, he disapears for me while Mister Torture executes him:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WEm_wiVCD5M
But since ZOS said this change is intended, well GG Zos
Edit: If you get marked while trying to go into Clouding Swarm tough, then everyone can see you ^^
Odd, i've seen it work as I described but i've also seen NB's gain a good second of invisibility while in my radiant magelight's aoe. Unless someone can put together a staged test video I won't say one way or another. I have seen piercing mark work for allies way to many times to say that isn't how it works.

Maybe those NBs stop using cloak when they get marked. Don't want to waste resources or just panic.
My feedback on the change:
I want to be able to use cloak after getting marked, just for the buffs. I don't care if everyone sees me.
If the patch hits live like that cloak isn't even worth a skill point.
It's already useless in PvE since Boss mobs ignore it and also in group PvP since it loses it's purge effect.
Everyone is able to counter this ability with one of the following skills:
- all AoEs including the ground target ones
- dark flare
- mage light
- piercing mark
- gap closers randomly
- some other skills randomly
- flare
- curse
- shadow image first shot
- entropy if not fixed
On top of it you're unable to use it at all once someone marks you or uses mage light.
The number of nightblades is incredible high and also the percentage of said NBs using mark. Mark lasts for 29 seconds if you didn't know it already.
Since mage light is really strong it will find it's way in near all magicka builds for sure.
You know what that means? If I fight any group containing a NB or a Magicka build I can be sure that cloak will end up being useless. It's simply not worth the slot.
It's the most unreliable skill and has a high cost.
I mean no problem, but give me a defense comparable to the ones of other classes.
There is nothing to disable shield/heals/block for multiple seconds.
NBs don't even got a real heal skill in case you forgot that.

I am keeping it. For one thing that 8% damage mitigation will be nice. Also, dot superssion while vigor and rally tick. I also think it will just require some more skill to pull off. Someone reveals you for 5 seconda. With 2 seconds left you cc dodger old xloak. Still useful to gain that second or two to restablish yourself. Just requires more work to pull off.
Perhaps but the thing is, with the amount of NBs in cyradil, it only takes one mark target to render the skill useless for 30 secs since you can't even cast it. I don't rely on it too much right now anyways so I will likely slot something else

Radiant Mage Light befor pts was tick based. So if a nb cloaked enough, they could cloak threw radiant mage light. This was just by design since 100% detection would be to much for the server to handle.
I think Zos is doing this to improve performance. They are slowly taking away tick based abilitys. Notice how DoT skills got reduced ticks recently also.
Same thing with the new Mage Light. Instead of giving everyone tick based detection like the old Mage Light, it just straight up prevents you from cloaking on use.
Its a real shame Zos is going this route. Stamina Nightblades just lost their Magicka utlity is all. Somthing ill have to work around. I'll probably start using summon image and max hp + stam regen orsinium food.
