Elder Sorcerer & Nightblade Online

✭✭✭
Just about every fan site 'share build' site is filled with Nightblade and Sorcerer, in-game seems every other player is either a Nightblade or a Sorcerer!
Any one else pick up on that? Why is that so?

lePoissonRouge✭✭✭*shrug* I've noticed a good number of Nightblades, but that may just be because I'm a Nightblade myself. I've encountered a good number of other classes as well though (mainly Templars). I think lots of people like Nightblade because it's the "badass" class, and sorcerer because people like "traditional" magic.0 -

DuranBurnsSoul ShrivenMost of my guild mates are Templars and DKs. But I guess you would expect that in a Orc only guild.Duran gro-Rugdzag- DC Orc Templar0 -
It may also be because DK and Templar are made up classes for Elder Scrolls Online while Nightblade and Sorcerer existed before in the ES universe... But whatevs.
Of course there's going to be alot of both. Its *mages* and *rouges* ffs. Which game doesnt have a ton of both? Either way, early game class balance is probably not going to be late game balance.Edited by murklor007neb18_ESO on 2 April 2014 05:170 -
Swordmage✭✭✭Yes, sorcerers will be popular because some people like the pets or just a spell hurler and nightblades are the thief class (which is always popular).
From a play standpoint, all four classes can do almost anything (but with a slightly different flavor); which ones are popular and considered "the best" will vary from month to month as people discover neat ways to build the characters and as the PvP crowd develop counters to each new flavor-of-the-month build.0 -
Lazarus_Long✭✭✭I have not noticed any differences in the numbers. Not that there isn't, just that I haven't noticed. What I have noticed is that almost everyone in PvP has their role set DPS (which is the default) and the ones that do have a different role are almost all healers.The List For Living - A guide for new or troubled players

Bunzaga_ESO✭✭✭I'm making a tank-sorc, and so far it's been a rough road. On my night-blade I was easily killing enemies 5 levels above me, on this new guy, I am glad if I can kill enemies the same level.
I'm just going to keep at it, and hope things get better for the next 25 levels.
