Shadowscale Build

Hi guys,

I'm new to this forum, so please if I'm asking noob questions, please bear with me. But I have always been very interested in the Shadowscales. Their lore and everything about them is just awesome and fascinating. So, I'm really wanting to roll n Argonian NB to be like a Shadowscale for the RP value. However, I have watched many videos from reliable sources like Deltia claiming that Argonians are the worst race. I'm not concerned with being the top DPS in my guild or anything, but I at least want to be viable at end game. Is his possible as an Argonian NB?

    Send feedback to the developers. They seem to think that Argonians are meant to be tanks not assassins, hence the turds for passives.

    How would I go about doing that?

    Not sure on console, but on the PC you type /feedback. Then you type up your feedback. I've been sending them my suggestions and criticisms for almost a year and it does no good. They actually nerfed the Argonians recently and made them even worse. I'm not sure the people in charge of this stuff actually think about balance within the context of the greater game design.

    You'll be viable, but other races with 10% resource boosts will be better. If you're main concern is just roleplaying, then you'll be fine. Hopefully, they'll balance out the passives one day and you'll feel even better that you just stuck with what you like.

    Passives really dont make a huge difference unless you're min-maxing. You can get by with any race without too much trouble.

    Argonian might not be the best race but pick it if you like the Shadowscales!
    If you want the best race for a NB you should pick Bosmer.
    NBs can be very strong if you build it right, both magicka and stamina builds can be pretty strong.

    Player skill is the most important thing, especially for NBs. Deltia has a point but he still manages to beat most players with his Argonian NB.
