Just in time for the June 1st update, when the procs (some of them anyway) are coming back.

Already working on that build on the pts!

@thisisnotBro

Thanks a lot for your videos. I can see there a modded crosshair.
It improves the visibility of the hidden/visible state.
Would you mind to share which addons that feature provides ?

Oh, I actually just posted my mNB build in a different thread yesterday. I'll repost here. I actually swapped 3x protective out for 3x bloodthirsty, but the abilities haven't changed (for once) in a month or two:

"""
Yeah, it is highly doable. I've logged at least 50 played days on a mNB in cyrodiil, and have tried all of the no-proc/proc set setups, and this has been working very handily for me:

Gear:
5x spinner's
5x amber plasm
1x pirate skeleton monster mask (armor bonus, in heavy)
1x mighty chudan (armor, in heavy)

Traits:
5x armor well fitted
2x infused (head and chest)
3x protective jewelry

Gear enchants
7x armor health enchants
3x spell damage on jewelry

Weapons
Front bar: inferno staff, with sharpened, and spell/weapon damage enchant
Back bar: resto staff, with defensive, and Magicka steal enchant

The abilities are the real key here:
Front bar, damage bar:
1: Shadowy disguise for stealth
2: Lotus fan for gap closing
3: Concealed weapon for stun/spammable/melee
4: Swallow soul for ranged/ticking self heal
5: merciless resolve bow proc for second part of burst combo

FB ulti: Soul harvest go apply major defile and first move in burst combo

Back bar, for defenses, debuffs, and heals:
1: reapers mark/elemental drain/etc for major breach application
2: free slot, I rotate between radiating light from mages guild, siege shield from support, and others
3: Twisting path to increase speed. Great for zooming a group around a tower/rock/etc to kill farmers
4: rapid regeneration for ticking self heal
5: blessing of protection for spammable burst heal, and applies minor resolve

Ulti: I run soul tether for damage, but resto ulti can work for extra survivability if you want.

With major + minor resolve up, back bar resists are 36k/33k

Front bar, 19k pen, 4500 spell damage

Champ points slottables:
Blue:
+10% direct damage
+15% crit damage from behind
+10% crit damage
-10% direct damage

Red:
Armor
Regen
Slippery (auto break free)
+10% damage reduction while cc'd

Mundus
Always run the Lover

Combat
If 1 v 1 ing, the idea is basically
Offense
Pre buff merciless resolve
Reapers mark to apply major breach
Lotus fan debuff/gap close to apply +5% vulnerability + dot
Keep swallow soul always ticking
Get merciless resolve to 5
Concealed weapon stun, into soul harvest, into merciless resolve bow proc. Often I just use the stun to put distance for the defensive combo

Defence:
Rapid regen for ticking heal
Twisting path to put some distance, also stuns
Spamming blessing of protection to keep minor resolve up, and to burst heal over and over.

Food
Bewitched Sugar Skulls

I run stage 3 vamp

that's about it. If someone actually gives this a try, lmk on here, or shoot me a tell in game. Would be neat if some one actually tried it lol. I think it's about as good as magnb gets in this meta. Can use dark cloak instead of shadowy disguise if you don't need stealth (I do tho, and it's very strong with vamp)

Good build.

Update 30.

You could switch Spinners for Heartland Conquerer with Nirn weapons to push your Spell Damage to 6.1 with the weapon damage glyph.

Your penetration would be slightly less; however your damage would increase across the board since NB skills scale better to spell damage than max magicka.

On the back bar, you would double the defensive trait; alternatively, Powered would grant +18% healing plus +4% from CP (optional +10% from slotted CP) and you've almost negated the Battle Spirit penalty.

You have more options to mix armor pieces to find your penetration comfort level.
