How to PVP like a BOSS (NightBlade Edition)!

MTrent24

Step 1: Become a Nightblade (Since I'm black I always choose a Redguard, sorry)
Step 2: Enter Cyrodiil after reaching level 10.
Step 3: Decline all group invites, we got more important things to do.
Step 4: Go to the nearest enemy keep. or better yet go to the bridges, lots of people ride through there.
Step 5: Hide in stealth and make yourself comfortable. Keep hiding until you see someone alone by themselves.
Step 6: Don't get too excited, wait on it......wait on it...
Step 7: Now! Jump out of stealth and spam the following in the order below:

Ambush!, Surprize Attack!, and Dizzying Swing!.....Dizzying Swing again! and again!

If the person starts to respond and defend themselves see step 8 below.

Step 8: Hide in stealth and run away like a little *****. Wow, that was close! Better not try that person again.

Rinse and repeat!

Did you get you'r but hurt by a StamBlade. If so, follow these steps:

1. Send him hate whispers how bad he is, how he should L2P...
2. Go to forum and make a cry tread, because you'r still pissed off and cant get over it.
3. Find the darkest corner of the room, play some sad music like jazz and cry you'r self to sleep.
4. Next day rise n repeat, but for God sake do not put any inpen gear, because you know you dont need it.

Have a good day.
p.s. I can make you a mix tape of "cry you'r self to sleep" music if you need it.

So @MTrent24 for sure dont play magplar and stamblade, who will be next? Who will be slayed by his godlike sarcasm? Stay tuned for next episode of his show "Guess what pill I didnt take today?"

@MTrent24 , what you are not understanding is that you don't have to be a nb to pull this off, I know redguards that are stamplars , stam dk's , & even stam sorcs doing this! They are so OP!

ScruffyWhiskers

What I do not get is the expectation by players who are attacked in this manner i.e from stealth with a burst of damage that is intended to kill them quickly if they panic or do not respond correctly, that the attacker ("ganker") should then just stay there and fight them in the open on unfavorable terms.

That's the golden rule of the ganker. Learn who the easy marks are and always fight on your terms. It would be pretty boring game if we all fought the same way.

SleepyTroll

Why are you ganking on a redguard? There in lies the problem. Also ambush into surprise atack followed by dizzying swing spam? What is this a mature hour?

Rohamad_Ali

I'm doing it wrong . I don't have any two handed weapons

Sureshawt

Unless hard CCd anyone getting hit by multiple Dizzying Swings deserves to die....seriously. I almost enjoy making players look silly swinging this at me as much a I do eventually killing them.

Darkestnght

They are sneaky - I get ganked often and really do not mind. I have come close to killing a few of these guys and in time I feel I'll be able to kill a few with some more adjustments to my build. I gives me goal and something else to become better at in the game. I does hurt sometimes but just get back on your feet and try again.

I love my mag nightblade.

I was at roe ganking - 24 kills, 24 killing blows and 0 deaths.

I felt sorry for one AD, he kept coming back looking for me. I whispered him something like:

"Come back when you get good"
"I see you"
"omg, you must want to die again"

I killed the poor AD like 6 times. He almost got lucky, I cloaked away about a mile from my ganking spot, and took a break ( AFK ) I came back just in time.. the guy found me. I had to laugh a little because he must have really been on a mission to find me.

The other day I got lost in IC seen an EP player and hid. I was thinking.. "hmmm I could gank him and if he kills me I will get a free ride back to DC". I ganked him for 1.4 k stones

Your entry level NB advice is weak kid. Now for the pro stuff.

Equip Eternal hunt set.
Wait in stealth near well traveled area.
Cast abilities in this order: Poison injection-Ambush-Incapacitating Strike-Suprise attack/light attack.

If they live more then 2 seconds make sure you dodgeroll 15 times to the closest rock/tree/wall and cast vigor/rally/vigor/vigor/vigor/rally/vigor/vigor/vigor/vigor/vigor/vigor/rally/vigor if you get less then 95% health, all while dodgerolling and leaving little glyphs of cancer on the ground.

Now the opponent will recognize your "skill" and probly just leave you alone. If they dont get a puzzled/disgusted look on their face and log off immediately make sure, this is important, to write down their name and never fight them again unless you have 5 other similarly "skilled" NBs with you.

Surprise Attack and Dizzying Swing both? LOL, too noob gankers out there.

BruhItsOver9000

Nightblades are assassins, assassination is an art. Don't like getting ganked? Wear impen.
Also just a warning, don't teabag a ganker, he/she will put you on a hitlist.

Impenetrable is your friend as well as enough HP to survive initial burst. Drink immovable/hp pot and move/dodge roll/sprint through their attacks (towards them) and then go on the attack or disengage with rapids or whatever your mobility/evasive skill you have to reset fight.

Since I started doing the above, the only player that has ever killed me one on one without having a chance to respond/recover is ZERGBAD EXTERMINATOR.

I used to get mad when this happened to me but it is inevitable. Cyro as a whole was a great idea but now it's just depressing

joshhh_nb

If you die by from a wrecking blow stam blade that's all u lmao

Surprise attack and dizzy swings? That is boss

If he's being tbagged, his hitlist doesn't matter much.

Also nightblades are more than just assassins. Nightblade can perform any play style in the game just as well as any other class, though not always as easily. Nightblade has the greatest diversity in builds and play styles of any class, and that's why I love it.
