    This is a craglorn boss that is made for four people.

    And the video I linked is not just one, but four dungeon bosses being solo'd. You know that dungeons are made for four people, right?

    Your video showed a Nightblade using an ability that bugs out the AI to solo a VR dungeon. If npcs worked properly when someone goes invis that Nightblade would not have been able to complete the dungeon.

    Youre starting to sound pretty desperate

    Go on.

    Wow, your nose must smell terrible right now. Playing easily what is most likely the strongest class in the game, and holding block while using instant cast abilities, yeah that's has to be skill right there. If he can do the same on any class then yes, hes skilled. Being able to block while using instant cast abilities is what makes this possible.

    It's unfortunate that you seem to be unable to comprehend that any class could do the same thing. It's also funny that you seem to think this took hardly any skill - you must be the idiot on the couch screaming at how bad the pros are. LOL

    This is tneory craft from someone who has nevered played a VR Nightblade. Keeping up a 15 second ultimate an entire fight for a NB is rediculous as we cannot build Ulti like a DK standard and talons spam. At most we could reduce Veil of Blades to 100 Ulti, and if we're supposed to be using Leeching Strikes at -25% damage, we aren't going to be making that 100 ulti back spamming 75% power WWs. Also your claim we are supposed to Ambush INTO a target to boost Swallow Soul healing is rediculous as your video clearly shows you KITING the entire fight to stay alive. There is simply no way a NB could pull off something like this.

    Ultimate cost reduction gear and passives need to be removed from the game period. Also Ultimate should not regen while an Ulti ability is active. After that they can get to work on the broken NB trees for the 100 of us not rerolling FOTM DK or Sorc builds.



    here ya go, NB popping Veil of Blades 3 times in one fight.
    https://youtube.com/watch?v=nl2m_6dC-ew

    Against level 28 none VR mobs in a public dungeon... and watching the video he uses his ultimate once for three different mob packs.

    Lol why are you even posting in a big boy thread.

    That's irrelevant. Someone said NB couldn't pop ultimate as much as DK, and that in that video he clearly popped Veil of Blades 3 times in one fight with a pack of mobs.

    plus, that guy is level 20 killing level 28 mobs without hardly losing any health.

    Yea, all of them...he's using pulsar as his main damaging attack. Not to mention, he even says that he only soloed the trash mobs up to the first boss.

    Its absolutely relevent, comparing 28 mobs to VR11 Group Dungeon mobs is apples and oranges. In the video he uses his Ultimate ONCE in each fight, three times total for three different mob packs. Not to mention his health does drop down quite a bit, his only saving heal being assassines blade, which works great in level 28 solo content but won't one shot anything in VR11 dungeons.

    I don't know what level you are, but if youre blown away by a 20 v 28 mob video, while also not even understanding whats happening in the video itself, I know your young and not in VR content yet, so your opinions are fairly irrelevent to the topic. Not trying to be rude but you should really just take a back seat for this discussion kiddo.

    Where are the videos of other classes doing it? I only ever see Dragonknights doing group content solo. If you have links to the videos of the other classes doing this without having to use exploits or broken mechanics then link it, theorycrafting how it could be done by other classes is not proof. If holding block while using instant cast abilities is what you consider to be skilled, then you have no idea what skill really is. Fanboys always manage to look pathetic when they're defending whatever they love.

    I'd like to point out I don't hate the DK class or resent the OP. I'm sure he's a decent PvEr, and I agree with him Ultimate regeneration using Ultimate abilities is the root issue which allows DKs to solo VR group content, which is OP.

    I only disagree with his theory craft claiming this is possible for a NB to do out of my direct experience playing a NB in VR content, something I don't think he has done.

    In any event, this whole "argument" between posters is pointless as Talons is getting its number of targets capped with the release of 1.1, we will have to wait and see how this effects the meta before calling for nerfs to the DK class.

    I still think Ultimate regeneration should not occur while a Ultimate ability is active, which would bring balance between the instant Ultimate abilities and the time lapse abilities.

He then goes on to pop a third one as he engages the second set of mobs from the same pull.

    This simply is not how it works in VR dungeons on a NB, something you have no experience with I'm sure. Take a backseat, please.

    With a sorc that video would be sub 1 minute ..... All he is doing is chugging HP potions, AoE healing, burning talons to hold them and dropping standard.

    There is barely any damage being caused, it just looks impressive.

    The clear issue here, is that 1 person, regardless of what build, gear, skills they are using, is able to solo the newest content, which was meant for a group.

    Really hope Zenimax gets some badly needed balances in play sooner rather then later, more specifically with how cost reductions work on Ultimates and how often we can spam them.

    Frustrating to deal with this in the current build on live, and big reason why I stopped AvA all together. We have lost over 100 players in our alliance who cancelled their subs over these issues, which frankly were well documented and reported in Beta.

    Not sure what it will take to get ZOS to really focus fire on fixing these major imbalance issues, but it's very clear they were well aware of them many months before launch and chose to do nothing.

    Definitely doesn't always work this way in this game. Yes for sure the higher the Vet level the stronger they are naturally from Gear.

    But from v3-v6 I have killed plenty of v10 in PVP 1v1. Equal skill and equal gear, yes the v10 will beat me. But skill does make a bigger difference than shear Vet Rank from my experience in Cyrodiil.

    Is playing an overpowered class now considered exceptional skill? That doesn't seem right at all, where are the videos of the other classes doing the same thing without exploiting ai/terrain or anything else, and only using two health pots.

    That way everyone will be equally bad. Yay!

    Is playing an overpowered class now considered exceptional skill? That doesn't seem right at all, where are the videos of the other classes doing the same thing without exploiting ai/terrain or anything else, and only using two health pots.

    I already explained how other classes could do it... I don't have other geared characters on the PTS. I'm not one to normally say much in regards to my skill or not, but it's absolutely not an indication of an overpowered class because one or two people pull off something impressive with it. Even if two classes could and two couldn't on any specific encounter still wouldn't say anything about balance, either, on an overall basis.

    Exploits suck. Don't blame just the game, blame the players abusing them!

    Theorycrafting is not the same as posting actual evidence. And a class being able to solo higher level group content does mean it is overpowered, because if the other classes were buffed to that level you would then have to increase the difficulty of the content. You must understand that being able to solo content designed for a group that also happens to be above your level is absolutely an indication of an overpowered class, if not what could you possibly think an overpowered class is?

    You can do the same thing with a sorc.

    Yeah a sorceror friend of mine does similar stuff. he also just blinks/escape bolt out of stuff when it gets heavy.

    The problem is not classes, but how ultimate is gained at the moment. Any class can abuse ultimates with set bonuses etc.

    While ultimate gain is an issue currently insofar as how quickly it's gained, I did not have any ultimate cost reduction gear equipped for the video. :)

    Being able to generate ultimate while you currently have an ultimate active, ex; dropping standard and generating enough ultimate to drop another standard ontop of the one that already exists. You should not be able to generate ultimate while you have one active, utlimate cost reduction should also be hard capped at a low amount, and no class should have ultimate cost reduction passives. Something with a name like Ultimate shouldn't be available as often as it is right now.

    So, a video of a DK figuring out how to solo an easy encounter equals dk being op? ***, please. I would really like to slap everyone who cries for nerfs in his face.

    attorney...... idk if you have even Played a VR NB before, whether you have or not, your theory would not work. us NBs don't build ults like the DK does. the only ult iv seen a NB use so far which builds fast, is deathstroke, and that is meant for knocking people down, not taking on mobs. idk if you used explots, or if you are just that good, but one person should not be able to solo a dungeon boss(or trial, whatever it is) like that. ESSPECIALLY when they have all those adds. This is one of the reasons why I stopped with PvP. if one guy could solo... that... then there is no point I fighting him in PvP.
