    Well you spam Cloak too fast while there is nothing to Purge, causing an unnecessary strain on your magicka.

    Fine now thanks.

    concealed weapon / dark cloak / swallow soul / mass hysteria / crippling crasp
    ../ double take / piercing mark / dark shades

    I would just experiment with a minor change to your playstyle....

    1. Reaping Mark instead for Major Berserk for 5.0s [+25% damage] after last kill....use detect potions
    Try and up your damage little

    2. Shadowy disguise to gain Precision for 2.5s [guaranteed crit] heal through dots
    You are cloaking most of the time so you might as well make all hits crit.

    ..see if that combo works better to increase damage 88%
    Hopefully thin the crop a little quicker ?

    Sorry but i have to disagree. Dark cloak is by far the better option and reapers mark only gives you the damage buff when the target dies and it is easier to remove and does not last as long.

    Only watched the first minute and got called away.

    First thing, you open with Mark. He dismounts and gets on the defensive. Next you begin running in his direction and cast crippling grasp it seems and then cloak-walk up to your target.

    Ok, well first off, he sees you coming and starts to hold block. You then cloak-run to him just to fear him? That makes no sense, you should have used Concealed Weapon for the stun, however he was blocking, so bleh :no_mouth: What you should have done was take your time and get out of combat, wait for him to drop block and combo him with Teleport/Conceal and then follow up with either your ult/fear/conceal or whatever skillset you wish to use. This would have been the basic bread and butter of magicka nb offensive attack. Just trying to keep it simple.

    But running up to melee range with cloak just to fear was absolutely pointless. Should have picked a better fight.

    The last thing I saw you do was run away with mistform. I don't recommend this.
    The only NB I watched recently make that tactic work is Sunshine and he is slippery and skilled, so there is that... and it was PTS.
    Regarding Mist, you don't regen Magicka. Notice how the Nightblade chasing you just simply takes his time and waits for Mist to stop and then Ambushes you? That's what people are going to do. You are much better off using Cloak with Double Take to disengage, that or potions of invis with major expedition. Pop smoke and gtfo!
    Couldn't watch the rest of it as I got pulled away and now I'm off to do some stuff. Hope that little bit helps, maybe I will watch the rest of it later and comment more, or you can pm me, w/e. good luck !
    I got killed in pvp, nerf everything...

    Only thing i really think you should work on is the time between cloaks. Count to atleast 3 seconds before casting it again. If you watch the video, you do it about every 1.5 seconds causing you to slowly lose magicka rather than keeping it even with the regen ticks. Other than that great use of the terrain and nice timing on that second detect pot lol

    Cloak is 2.9 sec with all passives, and you should recast a bit earlier actually, to avoid the red glow that is visible to other players when you wait too long.

    My 3 seconds of counting are faster than an actual 3 seconds so its all good lol. Still a good rule to count to 3 though. And my point still stands, he casts it back to back too early.
