    I think I'm the only one who uses it so I guess it's not all that OP, but, for what it's worth my Soul Assault now hits for 44K+ damage.

    I'm a Templar. We need to be creative.

    44k is nothing, i had it at 73k on my sorc at one point. xD

    Dark Cloak

    Seriously. Dark Cloak? Templars have instant heals, Dks are tank also with instant heals and sorcs shield stack. The dark cloak is so overrated when you compare it to other class abilities. We're squishy and are really only designed for in and out burst damage. Sure we can cloak away but that's no fun. Sorcs streak away in similar circumstances anyway. \

    Not to mention the numerous amount of abilities that pull you out of cloak like entropy.

    If you don't have a nightblade, make yourself one and find out for yourself.

    Dk's tanks are useless in pvp, the instant heal heals 3k? xD , sorc shield stack is more than 1 skill. Why are nb's more squishy than other classes? They get free 5.2k armour buff's. Have an ability that make attacks completely miss and forces the user to switch to an aoe if they even can in time before you come out of cloak and stun them.

    Sorc will never get away anymore, gap close spam as well as the increased cost.

    Just let the guy have an opinion.

    I think its Eclipse.

    That OP AF Spell has been nerfed multiple times into the ground for a reason UNKNOWN.

    Must be Eclipse. Then goes Radiant Destruction.

    Basically its Magicka Templars OP AF, that's why you see so many of them in the open field playing small mans and soloing. Oh, wait...

    LOL too much trolls or Wrecking Blow spammers here, because is pretty obvious, Wrecking Blow is the MOST OP skill of the game by far

    Surprise Attack, Crystal Fragments, Focus Aim...even Overload, are good skills but not are OP....but a 2h skill with the same speed of a Steel Tornado with 3 times more damage per hit? stupidly OP

    Why would you compare wb to steel tornado? Obviously it's going to deal more damage when its a melee range channeled single target spell, whereas steel tornado is a massive ranged instant aoe

    @leepalmer95 It's not incredibly OP by itself, but it is THE BEST follow-up/combo skill in game. Have you seen what stamDk's can do with this thing? Wrecking Blow -> Take Flight -> game over lol. It's super effective.

    WB is so easy to counter. it's good, but certainly not the most OP skill in the game. Good players can avoid it 100%.

    Surprise attack is easily the most OP skill in the game, especially when using the same comparison as Wrecking Blow.

    Surprise attack: as much damage as WB or harder, nerfs target armor with major debuff, BUFFS your armour with major buff, instant cast.

    Most of the things people say are OP on here really aren't.

    Literally every skill I have read so far is not that big of a problem, and can be counter played to either make it less effective or for some of them completely ineffective..

    Cool i call your bluff ... counter steel tornado x24.... proxy x24.. bat x24.. just to name a few...

    "Literally" (people also have a tendency to put unnecessary "pre-words?" to the start of a sentence)

    Some people also always have the need to defend obviously OP stuff .... i guess one must defend the skills they use.

    Ambush or Mass Hysteria

    Ambush/Lotus Fan

    It's a gap closer, so it has the built in line of sight check snare, Lotus Fan is with TG the only gap closer that is currently undodgeable. Ambush empowers Lotus Fan snares and dot. They both have no minimum distance. Because it is essientally a teleport it draws no path data and ignores elevation changes.

    Mass Hysteria

    An AOE hard stun through block. Templar had something similar but it was considered to over powered apperantly it is not to much for a NB. Offense or defense this is the best utility skill in the game made more important by the recent changes to Magelight. Now a NB will just have to fear you before they cloak and run away to make minimum safe distance of magelight

    Edit;

    Soul Harvest

    How dare I forget; single target ultimate that cost 50 ultimate (that's right 50) and allows you to do 20 % more damage to that target for 6 seconds. This stacks with every buff in the game so 20 % plus fracture plus major sorcery/brutality plus minor berserk plus empower plus major berserk. All buffs NB's have access to in their own skill trees buffing themselves. Oh, and with TG NB's will get 20 ultimate from drinking a potion so it will take them less then 6 seconds to earn another 50 ultimate.

    Damn and how could I forget while slotted kills generate ten ultimate.

    If this skill cost 150 ultimate it would still be worth it.

    NB's are just ridiculous.


    Honorable Mention to steel tornado

    Wow! You sure know how to sell a class. I'm switching to NB now.

    Thanks, pal ;)

    Considering he seems to think that you can have two morphs of the same skill on one bar...at the same time, maybe you shouldn't put a downpayment on that golden-gate bridge over a swamp owned by a nigerian prince just yet.

    It does have alot going for it, I have to admit even as a magblade. Hard to spot animations making CC-breaking tricky, reduced enemy damage, AOE, snare, and ease of use offensively and defensively..

    Yeah, let's spell this out for people who don't realize what you get:
    1. AoE hard CC
    2. Snare
    3. Goes through block
    4. Damage bonus against feared enemy
    5. Damage debuff on enemy
    6. Hard to see animation.
    7. (UN)intentional break free delay.

    Stampede and WB combo. due to the fact all gap closers now temporarily root you (it may as well be a root) a player can literally be stuck in place, making dodging WB almost impossible for mana builds. Thankfully the DK has ash cloud:D

    I know this is tied to it being aoe but the fact it goes through dodge roll is pretty good as well
