Actually no its not possible now, look at all the dodge rolls in the video, I counted like 5 almost 6 in a 4-5 second window. Dodge roll gets the Nerf hammer with the IC patch. This is now not possible, you will be out of Stam by like the third one now because of the 33% additional cost.
On a side note, I love watching Sypher's videos as well but it seems he will go to a Magicka Nightblade as well because the perma dodge rolling days are now gone with a Stamina Nightblade build that he was using with the Skirmisher 2h/Bow build where he was using Dodge roll alot as well. Now as a Stamina Nightblade build you will have to pick and choose when to block, dodge roll and use Cloak just to survive in the game because of the Dodge roll nerf xtra cost and the 0 Stam regen for blocking, Cloak looks to be like it is the last Defense that Nightblades will have and people want to Nerf that too with an additional cost or something.
Does the 33% cost stack like Bolt Escape ? Or is it only a 33% increase after the first dodge ?
I should just say to you, "hello go on the PTS and test it yourself..." but why bother, Yeah it does stack, like I said before L2P but now I'll just say "Do your damn research..." You can only do one dodge roll per like every 4-5 seconds or you incur a 33% cost and then it stacks if you do another and then another... see this is why you don't call for Nerf's Dracane... duuuurrrr
the 1st roll doesn't have a cost, the second one within 4-5 secs adds 33% then next adds 33% and so on just like Bolt Escape, this now effects everyone.. even sorcs as does the 0 stam while blocking...
You pretend like it's my fault that this happens O.o calm down, what happened to the Kotari that I used to love ? You were so funny and entertaining. Now you're exhausting and mean. So sad
when you keep calling for Nerf's and dont do your darn research, yeah im gonna blame you, maybe your finally waking up and getting a clue, the roll dodge nerf and block nerf affects everyone and your still calling for more Nerf's to class skills.. I get upset because it's affecting my favorite game on the planet right now.. and I'm not pretending.. rediculous..
I'm not calling for any nerfs -.- I didn't talk about any nerfs for many days.
All I'm saying, is that Cloak needs adjustments and many people say the same and I weren't talking about cloak for days. I know you want your might class, everyone does.
I'm doing many research UNLIKE YOU !
Not my fault if you haven't seen one of plenty research threads that I've started during this pts month.
You know what ? I already knew that the dodge penalty stacks. But I wanted you to tell me, because I thought, it's possible to get a friendly conversation like we used to do. But well nevermind

If you did your own research then why ask the question if the dodge roll % stacks like Bolt Escape, you just got caught out lying, for now on I'll just ignore your comments, waste of my time.

I know how you feel, but lets be real about this. I play as a sorc, and we now have a armor set that deals damage through our shields, 50% stacking increase on streak and BoL, and we also get hit by the dodge roll/block nerf. everyones defenses have been hit in the IC patch with the exception of cloak.
As i've said. i would much prefer if we all got on ZoS about undoing the nerfs they are implementing in the IC patch as well as the 50% decreased damage. as it stands however, that's the problem with nerfs, they nerf this skill then they gotta nerf that skill and so on. It is foolish and i wish they'd listen to their player base on this issue.
They are separate mechanics, and their states of balance are not dependent on each other. This doesn't explain anything having to do with NB balance..

Shieldbreaker is much pain for magickablade too. Now every BowNB can easy kill mackiablades assassins. Because they start with burst, you get piercing mark and the oh-***-button of every magickablade is healing ward and not cloak. Sorcs has with hardened ward way more time to react against Shieldbreakerusers, because you dont be affected by burst and Shieldbreaker.
@ all
I think many guys, who flaming about NBs mixed up stamina and magicka builds. Of course magickablade can spam cloak, but staminablade can easy do 30% more dmg. And noone can do both. Magickablades best burstskills are non-nb-skills like detonation and dawnbreaker.
Cloak is pretty useless against experienced players and healing ward isnt that strong as single shield. According to my experience magickablades pretty weak against high-stamina-burst-damage and chargeabilitys.
@Dracane - of course the value is higher but you dont benefit from that, if the enemy uses shieldbreaker. I said Sorcs are better in avoiding early burst cause of hardened warden, thats the point.

It wasn't very long ago hat the same people were telling everyone else that the detect pots WERE the counter to the OP Cloak antics seen in IC. They have been significantly nerfed as well, leaving a thirty second window when it runs out for any NB with half a brain and a little skill to attack in.
But no, that is not enough, they want everything their own way with no way to stop them.
Pathetic.
There is a simplay way to Counter D-Pot users, attack them, they have a CD on Pots...........
Each Nightblades uses fear to counter blocks, as good as all melees have gap closers to counter Bolt escape and many people are using lightning staff, Jesus Beam and similar things to counter dodge roll and all of the 3 just mentioned have penalties. But Cloak, no cloak does not of course ! Change that already. And to counter cloak, you have to slot the most ridiculous things and even have to sacrifise 1 valueable restoring potions.

And now where detection potions received the massive nerf hammer, it's still not enough to satisfy them.
And now they claim it's too hard to leave the 10 meter radius of Magelight or to avoid a projectile, that takes ages to hit in (revealing flare)
Yes, cloak has counters, but none of them is reliable and everything comes with a big trade off. People have to slot abilities that they wouldn't use otherwise and have to use a potion, that makes the user of the potion prey himself. Countering Bolt Escape, blocks and dodge roll does not require a player to slot abilities, which he wouldn't have on his bar anyway.

Up until this patch, when IC DLC drops this day, Cloak already had the penalty of being hit by almost any attack and Cloak would break, also how about the time when Nightblades own abilities, like Strife would bring them out of Cloak and it wasn't fixed for a large amount of time or when Gap closers would always make Cloak fail. Cloak doesn't have penalties because for the last year and a half it was already working like crap and it was not intended to not break on Single target attacks (as per the DEV's, Eric Wrobel on ESO live said so), now it will still break on AOE attacks and RML (Radiant Magelight), AvA Flares and Detect Potions..
if you can't handle it.....Tough, L2P.
Srry Drac, but coming that from sorc is not in right place, lets say.. As sorc u have additional bar, slot there flare.. U wont waste precious skill slot this way, also as sorc - streak and stay close to nb, he wont be able to cloak, casue ur storm armor will keep him uncloaked.. perma root nb, most nbs will be able to dodge roll 5 - 6 times.. and then just overload him to dead.. pop up det/immovability pot and streak tru him - pew pew, At least thats my tactic to kill esly nb as a sorc.. Agree that DKs and Temps have harder time, than nb/sorc vs nb.. but still.. they have their counters, Dks inferno will uncloak any1 close to DK, as for temp, who will play them?? i am sorry for my fellow templars, weakest class 1.7..

It does! It's an area damage spell with a 15 meter range. I use it all the time on live, although even 15 meter is often not enough even if you have to switch to the bar with it as soon as the NB cloaks.
