... a passive ability that allowed me to convert the finesse mechanic 'dodge roll' into something like a 'shadow step' for my Nightblade, so that it would use magicka instead of stamina.

It's important to note that this wouldn't be a new ability for my bar, but an actual replacement for the default finesse skill. So in this instance, when I double-tap move in any direction, instead of rolling, I'd do a very small, shadowy teleport animation instead of rolling.

Functionally, the movement distance would be the same, as well as length of the animation. Magicka consumption would be point for point against stamina use.



Being able to pick and choose which finesse mechanics I substituted would be the key, as well as animation specific to various characters. As a Nightblade, block could be us going 'shadowy' for a moment, still taking damage but looking like we became slightly incorporeal. Sprint could also drain magicka by giving us a 'shadow run', which could look fairly cool.

Again, mechanic wise, these finesse functions would work the same as they do currently. Animations would change, and we could choose what pool we draw from.
Ruze Aulus. Mayor of Dhalmora. Archer, hunter, assassin. Nightblade.
Gral. Mountain Terror. Barbarian, marauder, murderer. Nightblade.
Na'Djin. Knight-Blade. Knight, vanguard, defender. Nightblade.

XBOX NA
Ruze is a veteran of the PC Beta, lived through the year one drought, survived the buy-to-play conversion, and has stepped foot in the hells known as Craglorn. He mained a nightlbade when nightblades weren't good, and has never worn a robe. He converted from PC during the console betas, and hasn't regretted it a moment since.

He'd rank ESO:TU (in it's current state) a 4.8 out of 5, loving the game almost entirely.

This is an multiplayer game. I should be able to log in, join a dungeon, join a battleground, queue for a dolmen or world boss or delve, teleport in, play for 20 minutes, and not worry about getting kicked, failing to join, having perfect voice coms, or being unable to complete content because someone's lagging behind. Group Finder and matchmaking is broken. Take a note from Destiny and build a system that allows from drop-in/drop-out functionality and quick play.

    yes they should do this. I use magicka and I would still opt for these for the coolness factor.
    Dear Sister, I do not spread rumors, I create them.
