    Imperial/Bosmer/Redguard/Khajit are very good choices for stamina build nb, as they all got passives that really help a stam nb operate well, I have never heard of a nord nb, although if you can make it work with a good build, then go for it:}

    Nords are better for tanking, for night blades I am sorry but no, you would be disdvantaged from the very beginning compared to other stamina nb builds.

    They are gonna be tinkering with race passives soooon however, so maybe park it for now.

    I'm a Nord Nightblade, my cousin is an imperial and now he wants to be a Nord Nightblade. Nords are an excellent choice for a stamina DPS Nightblade. The reason being? Huge health regen, health pool and damage mitigation. Sounds ideal for a tank correct? Well by having such a tanky Nightblade, it allows you to focus on damage output without being too squishy. Trust me, your DPS is a lot higher when you're not dead.

    Any race can be stamina dps, just some are more obviously better at it than others. Nightblade tanks are fantastic, and being a little tanky won't hurt you at all. Think of it this way, on a nord you will hit your health requirements a lot sooner than most other races, which means you can put more into your primary stat (Stamina). Its true your build will not have the regen of a bosmer, redguard, orc or khajiit, but that doesn't mean it will be an awful character.
