No, stam morphs alone will not put NBs on that level.

Best case for current magicka builds is nothing changes, worst case is our skills get weaker. They should have added two new morphs for stamina users to every skill imo.
Spell and shadow are their friends. By darkness they move with haste, casting magic to benefit their circumstances. (in-game description)
Nightblades are effective assassins and enforcers. Their speed and skills allow them to easily reach places most others could not. Nightblades dispose of opponents with a quick blade and Destruction magic. They are also skilled in Alteration magic, and are proficient in healing themselves.
Nightblades though.. It has baffled me since they announced it why they would pick this for the roguish class. Their specialization was magic.Spell and shadow are their friends. By darkness they move with haste, casting magic to benefit their circumstances. (in-game description)

They're supposed to use blades to chip away at an enemy while using destruction magic to do the big damage. Basically if you used destruction staff on one bar, dual wield on the other, wore cloth, and threw out all the protection from alteration it would be a true Nightblade, but it's so impractical and further impractical given it's supposed to fulfill the rogue/stealth/assassin role.

Yeah, it's an optional thing. They'll be stamina morphs, so you can choose to morph it to be either a stamina or magicka ability, with the corresponding scaling (spell dmg+spell crit / weapon dmg+weapon crit)

... Well f**k me right? I can agree that this is probably how the game should have worked... But it wasn't. Now, I'll have to make all new legendary gear and all new glyphs cause I had the audacity to take a look at the game mechanics and create a hybrid build that plays off of said mechanics.
Dear ZoS,
Am I going to get all my crafting materials back? Since, I've based my build off of how the game works and has worked for the last 8 months, and you decided well, time to change everything.

No, you haven't. If you only want to look on this system - look on it on PTS. On live server you can continue to use magika build. What the problem?

Can I continue to use spell power with weapon crit on my concealed weapons and use magicka?
I don't think you understand, I have a hybrid build... I've pumped the stats of spell power and weapon crit. 2400 magic and 1800 stam.

Yeah, in that case your build is spoiled.

I think that the original TES Nightblade concept ie pure spell caster stealth build is kind of gone. I played the light/medium armor high weapon crit cloack,surprise ,ambush build quite a bit lonext to my Syphon and Tank builds and it was a blast. Unfortunately ZOS decide to give in and make the NBs the lame ranger everyone wanted it to be.It will be a lot more effective in pve but not exactly what it was before.

Shadow Cloak works great and seemingly pretty much as intended now. I use it to get out of jams and remain unseen all the time. Granted, detection potions, mage light, AOE's and Negative effects are problematic but that is intended. Shadow Cloak is not "broken" in the way it was pretty much since launch.
Detection Pots are a pain in the crapper and likely the source of most NB WTF moments regarding Shadow Cloak.
Just a heads up. Speed and Cloak work really well together. Night Silence gear or Vamp Movement passive greatly increase successful escapes with Cloak. The speed puts distance between you and enemies near you which is what you need for there to be any reasonable chance of evasion...just saying. Even the NB I have that doesn't use Night Silence still uses Cloak to great effect, just not as well as my Night Silence Geared NB.
IMO the broken Shadow Cloak arguments just don't hold water any more.
Don't get me wrong. The skill could use some improvements IMO and should render NB more protection from detection, especially for the magicka expended, but that is a different matter altogether.

I'd actually before an overall increase to the detection area... However, I'm kind of sick of detect pots workings agaisnt cloak (only skill in the game negated by a f**king potion). Stealth and cloak should not be lumped together when it comes to detection. The entire stealth/detection mechanic sickens me.

crystal fragments does not knock down someone who chugs a immovable potion, shattering prison does not root them, I can not disorient them with a skill, they dont go flying back with destructive touch (or frozen in place). You see where I am going with this. Your point is now flawed @Jacques Berge (cant tag you as it keeps putting quotes around your name and trying to do it manually just tags someone else) nightblades are not the only ones affected by a single potion.
