Best race for solo stamina nightblade

KoreanAwtamatic

Going to race change and wanted to know what the community thinks on which race is best for solo pvp

Bosmer.

Alot of people say redguard because of the adrenaline rush, which only works every 5 sec WHILE you are attacking. While bosmers 21% stamina regen bonus works while dodgerolling, cloaking etc.

4% less stamina but 10% more weapdmg in sneak/cloak/invis bats also rocks. And they look cool ^^

No regen while dodge rolling on console

I recently, remade mine from Wood Elf Archer, to a Khajiit, for the extra Crit, Seems to be working so far, but I don't run solo, as I am Medium Armour and die easily in Scourge lol

Imperial.

Redguard or Bosmer. The extra damage in sneak some of the races have does not stack with the nightblade passives. Confirmed on PTS. I used to rock a khajit loved it for ganking, but decided to go redguard for the sustain.

My honest vote is Orc.

I'm levelling up a Wood Elf Nightblade at the moment and I have to say it's great fun. After doing a bit of research I've crafted a set of Hunding's Rage gear (seems like a Julianos stamina alternative) and with some advice from another forum have put a 2 handed sword on my back bar (bow first). What I'm not too sure about though is where do I put my skill points? I'm currently putting 2 in stamina for every 1 in health. I don't use many of the magika abilities yet but from personal experience of being a sorcerer mainly, I get completely annihilated in PvP by Nightblades, very quickly too so I may have to put some into magika too. I don't know, any advise would be appreciated.

I say bosmer for the insane stamina recovery bonus + 10% damage bonus from stealth + a decent 6% bonus on stamina pool.

My vote is Bosmer.

Because...
-experience gains in bow skills increased by 15%
-stamina recovery, (7%, 14%, 21%)
-poison resistance, (495, 990, 1485)
-added stamina, (1%, 2%, 3%)
-reduces your detection radius in Stealth, (1m, 2m, 3m)
-increases damage done while in Stealth, (3%, 6%, 9%)

Hexys

1. Wood Elf:
Most stamina regeneration, the stealth passive and increased resistance to other nightblades.

2. Khajiit:
With gold food you can get a nice health recovery, mix this with the extra crit if you play with the shadow and of course the stealth passive.

3. Redguard/Orc

My lowbie Stamblade is Redguard ... but the other posters above me have listed some good options too.

I personally think Imperial fits really well. This race allows me to use Duel stat regen (stamina,magicka) and still have over 23k health in Cryodill. I really like having over 1k magicka regen for cloaking around which is very useful when playing solo.

Metemsycosis

I'm not going to lie, I am finding solo pvp really challenging lately but i'll echo soup2hot. Imperial's health and stamina pool gives them an obvious edge in the damage exchange department, especially since stamina is working so well. Some of my best stam nb days were wrecking blow crits from stealth on those completely unsuspecting of an attack. Leave no counter play, I say.

Is Imperial available to everyone who has the game or did you need to buy the Imprerial Edition?

@hasselhoffman

How did you test this? Was this a new change?

I thoroughly tested this a few months back on my Bosmer vs. Redguard and at that point it absolutely did stack. Also a lot of dead bodies in the sewers think it stacks as well;)

an orc templar in heavy armor is a sight to behold - bred for battle...

Play whatever race you think is cool. With the CPs you are going to offset their handicaps anyway. If you play a race w lots of regen, like Bosmer, you'll spend more CPs on other stuff. If you play a khajiit, you'll spend on regen.

The CP system is such that you can being the races so close (so long as you're using a stam race for a stam build, lol) that any difference in stats will be far exceeded by your play style, skill, gear, etc.
