What is in your opinion the easiest class to kill?

DeanTheCat

This poll is mainly for my personal curiosity. I am curious to find out what does the community think on which class is the easiest to kill. Please try to keep personal bias for/against any class out of your decision; vote what you honestly think are the easiest kills.

Explainations of your reasonings would be appreciated. Poll options are arranged in alphabetical order.

olsborg

Dragonknight

85% of DKs are easy kills. Those that arent are actually pretty dangerous tho.

Master_Kas

Nightblade

Even tough nightblades are very strong atm, they are by far the easiest class to kill for me since 95% of them go into pure damage with low health/defenses and alot are vamps aswell.

Sorc: Curse, inevtible deto, streak, dawnbreaker
NB & DK just need a heavy attack from sneak with camo hunter and silver shards and they are done.

In a 1v1 the hardest to take down are well played stamdk's and good sorcerers. Tanky templars with good heals are also hard to take down but are nowhere near of being as dangerous as a stamina dk with take flight or a sorc burst.

Edit: You know I play all classes, even my V1 templar. So not a biased post, just what I think. ^^

Mumyo

Templar

hm, by far the easiest kills that really have nothing to hurt me at all are templars, this is not about the fastest kills.
So when i encounter a templar, i fear nothing.

Soris

Dragonknight

Last time i checked, with a templar i find dks and templars are the easiest kills. But dks die by far quicker because they have no real heals with magicka builds

Soris

Dragonknight

However i think the poll should have include magicka and stamina variations of classes.

BuggeX

Nightblade

i Play magicka dk, they are all hard to kill.....

but the easiest class are stam blades

@Soris

I intend to make a poll regarding Magicka vs Stamina in the future, but I don't really want to distort the data right now as I'm looking for classes in general along with the complete suite of synergies they have with non-class abilities and passives. The data has been interesting to see thus far, and I thank all who have responded.

Soulac

Nightblade

Nightblades if not played well.

Imo DK is far easier to play or at least to be annoying and much "harder" to kill with.

Derra

Nightblade

That´s not even a question. NB has the most reactive and preparatory defensive skillset (it´s the most susceptible for mistakes or miscalculations) - yet is the sneaky rougue archetype of eso which happens to be a very popular choice for pvp players.

Joy_Division

Dragonknight

A poorly played NB is the easiest to kill in a straight-up fight. That being said, even mediocre players can occasionally be a nuisance with its skillset.

A dargonknight, on the other hand, specifically a magicka one, has no escape, little burst, and an outdated reputation as being "tanky' which compromises them even in the hands of experienced players.

Voted NB with the mention that it's usually Stam NBs fotm that can't really pull it off. Even I can kill them and I'm a filthy magicka Templar focused on support/heals.

But run into a good Stam NB that knows what they're doing - whole different story. Especially the S+B ones (such a rare breed but so good)

Erondil

Nightblade

For me nightblade is by far the easiest class to kill. They have little defence as soon as you know how to break their cloak and most of them are very bad (=3 shot). Its also the class that kills me most, though.

CamBam370

Sorcerer

I have to say a Sorc

This is because i am a magika dk and you know the rest.

Pchela

Nightblade

on my NB? Other NBs. On my sorc? DKs

Forestd16b14_ESO

Hmh um..... Well 1V1 DKs are hard to kill (Thank Kyne for that) and NBs yes there OP right now but they are kinda glass canons why the spam there little cloak. As for Templars well back in 1V1 again there heals are some what able to keep up. But add more players NBs just go cloak and spam ambush and repeat till they dead while DKs well don't need to go into much detail about that.

Didn't mention Sorcerers because damage shields.

imredneckson

Any vampire regardless of class

ThePonzzz

Nightblade

As a nightblade, I can say they are the easiest to kill. Anytime someone exposes themselves using ambush or surprise attack, I usually know they can't survive my burst. Where I go after a dragonknight and their health just recovers so much faster it seems. And sorcerer bolt escape makes me want to headbutt my screen.

exactly this.

Nightblades their terrible they really need to get buffed.

Dk > other templars > NB > Sorc

frozywozy

Dragonknight

This question doesn't make sense because depending of which class you play and which spec (magicka or stamina), you have more or less chances to beat the opposite class. This being said, I would conclude that dragonknight are probably the most easiest class to kill because 70% of people in Cyrodiil are nightblades and nightblades, no matter their spec, eat dragonknights.

heystreethawk

Nightblade

There are so many nightblades now, and I am of the opinion that very few of them know how to effectively play their own class.

Jaybe_Mawfaka

Templar

where is the variant Big Boss? I guess it depends on player, not on the classes in general, but mostly templars has no clue what to do, thats why they are only spamming heals and eventually rip

RAGUNAnoOne

Nightblade

Half the members of a common zerg are NBs everyone I know says hell yeah when they get a kill nightblade bounty quest. Nightblade is a double edged sword powerful but can kill you as well

TheRubiksCube

Dragonknight

"just takes skill to use" (in my opinion that just means the other classes don't need skill to use then)

When I say dragonknight, I'm referring specifically to magicka dragonknights. Not going to go into any rants; I'm pretty sure it's common knowledge that magicka DKs are not the best class to use in PVP.

2. Nightblades: (referring specifically to stamina) they hit hard (that's what I like about them) and the best offense is the best defense, but good NBs don't have too much health and are a bit squishy.

3.Templar: (referring specifically to magicka Templars) BoL really saves the day and puncturing sweep does damage while healing. Good healing, but in my opinion, the damage is mediocre (except for the Jesus beam, but I hear people say they're not doing insane damage because of a possible glitch).

4. Sorcerer: (referring specifically to magicka) Just streak and continuously throw a ward. What else is there to it? It's a class that can not only absorb damage, but it can also deal insane damage as well.

Nice topic

CatchMeTrolling

Nightblade

What are we considering here? I mean if we're talking about off the back it's easily a nb

Abob

Dragonknight

Stamina DK, especially the ones called little bem or krazzt Blackheart, easy kills.

Lucky28

Sorcerer

For me Sorcs are easiest to kill. and i'm a magicka Sorc myself not some foolish nightblade with Shield breaker. don't really have a lot of trouble with shield stacking. can typically get the shields rather quick then it's smooth sailing. course there also really good sorcs who i have a ton of trouble with.

DannyLV702

Nightblade

There are soooo many rerolled NBs going around at the moment that they've given my sorcerer the training needed to whoop most of them. There are still a few good stamblades that I have an extreme hard time with. Magic NBs have no chance against me whatsoever

DeanTheCat

Interesting answers. I thank everyone who have voted or commented. Keep the data coming!
