    No everyone, but many.

    Some people like to follow guides and do one shot builds, even if it is the only thing for what serves, to one shot when you consume a pot.

    Make your own build, stop following step by step instructions on where to put every point and attribute....

    imo, pathetic, play the game yourself, how is making someone elses character fun??

    I've been waiting, months, for the opportunity to buy another slot so I can make an Argonian Magicka NB and play that faction rather than bringing him into AD. When I saw this set, I thought, he could also gimmick from time to time.

    actually that build is far from perfect, there are several ways to improve it. and deltia is by no means the first one to guess the impact of the alchemy set.

    I now at least 1 way to make an even more burst build

    yeah. I am friends with a girl that has her NB up over 7000 weapon damage. She is squishy as can be and has no regen but she hits like a train loaded with MAC trucks going down hill

    I never said I will play this build. Actually I enjoy the game in my way even if it is good or bad.

    But you can't avoid the fact that for every game, even MOBA, are builds made by experts everywhere.

    Sypher do builds that share in his website and youtube, Feng Rush, Kodi and even Deltias that is not a hardcore pvp, but he put a lot of passion in ESO and is not also a complete ignorant.


    So why do you rage? because the world is not like you want? The world is not like any of us want. So accept that because you and some other % don't do one thing, the other % do it and complete valid to do it.

    I think deltia mentions right there that he knows its not perfect, he agees that altmer probably would be much better, but i have to agree the argonian sounds fun :) plus hes pretty cute. (edit: the argonian! Not deltia! :wink:)

    I do wonder how this will be travelling to your next keep defense with the changes to mage light though.

    Because "fun" is relative. Your version of "fun" differs from other people's version of "fun". Just b/c you find it fun to come up with your own builds/play styles doesn't mean that's fun for others.

    Yeah I know, it was not directed at you.

    I dont even mind using some of them as a guide, i just hate when people make the EXACT same build, stat for stat, just copying what they see online....get some originality!

    The thing with these build guides, I don't follow them exactly. But I do take ideas from them with regards to skill rotations and synergies that I would not otherwise think of.
    Enjoy the game, life is what you really want to be worried about.

    End of the day, nothing is original.

    I agree - cookie-cutter min-maxing is something people that only "play to win" do, but *shrug* this is a part of RPGs.

    Even table-top RPGs like D&D have to suffer the munchkins that care only for DPS and forget about the whole "role playing" part of the game =)

    TBH, I don't think you needed to show us a build for people to know.

    As soon as the Alchemist set was shown tons of people knew this type of thing would happen. However, with the amount of people that are going to run Magelight now it will not work very often, as you will just be seen and have to back away before being nuked.

    Cool, I am building a Dark elf Magic NB atm, With the fire damage bonus Dark Elfs have do you think this could work well if all weapons have fire enchants,. You don't have the potion passive but shouldn't the fire bonus make up for it?

    With great freedom, comes great (imba) builds ;p

    While I don't agree with going round being able to one-shot people. I also think a big part of the fun, is actually being able to come up with creative builds like this.

    If it's going to be nerfed, be mindful to only nerf the op aspect. Don't nerf creativity / freedom / fun.

    Stamina DK would be much better choice imo.

    +Potion, Kena
    -distance increases - critical charge - exe
    -remains the same - fossilize - wrecking blow - take flight - exe

    Simple, stupid, but works.

    What makes an Argonian good for this build? Nothing. ZOS continues to fail the lizard people. It's funny because Argonians have a potion-based passive that does not help this build or the Clever Alchemist set at all. It would be nice if it did, but you're still better off using the same old big 3 magicka races. Bland, bland, bland.

    One PvP streamer in particular who always says "He isn't biased towards any class" enjoys this class and the DK so will never say anything even if it was OP.

    Several PvP streamers typically just cry over Templars and healing because they don't play Templars in PvP. It also really pisses them off when Templars can play strong defense and can heal thru a lot of damage, which keeps said streamers from their quick kills. ZoS listens to their QQ.

    I was also thinking this. A nice WB with a potion and Kena into a leap? Forget about it :)

    Heya, MagNB Argonian PvPer here. Here's my POV:

    Was planning on switching out Magnus with Chemist, since using potions is in my current build and thus would work better then 5pc Magnus. However, this build in the OP requires a pretty hefty amount of set up. Inside of Cyordill, getting the right set up to shine consistently is very challenging to do--given how dynamic the battlefield can change quickly. Proc'ing Kena with attacks is not as simple as it seems. Don't get me wrong, I scienced Merciless Resolve before so I get how the set up works. But I noticed in situations where I needed it, especially in lag, I couldn't rely on the 4 light attacks to come out. And, might I mention, one needs to be in combat to get a Kena proc, something a NB needs to consider especially with Magelight changes. With a Chemist, I can be in a neutral non-combative position, pop a potion and be ready to pounce.

    I see Chemist as a very 'Come-back' kind of set too. If I get caught with my pants down, I'm 90% more likely to pop a potion and fight back. Since running away will be harder to do with this patch.

    Surely there will be people copying this build. They will one-shot people left and right and mostly those that solo and PvE. People will cry nerf NB on the forums and it's all cloak's fault again probably. More nerfs will come to different skills because of this build because people copied it. PvE'ers blame PvP'ers because it is abused in PvP and people cry on forums.

    time for next DLC with more nerfs

    Please don't copy builds and try your own. this build will be fun for a few one-shotters. After that it gets old.

    It's how the Templar healing got nerfed again. A couple of streamers whining like little girls because they couldn't kill people fast enough in PvP. Even though in several of their rant streams there were MULTIPLE HEALERS keeping someone alive.
