Help with My stamina Nightblade Please

Enemy-of-Coldharbour

I just got my stamblade to VR16 and want to craft an endgame set. I can't afford to craft individual sets for both PVE and PVP so I need a setup that will work well in both situations. I've been reading builds online and they all seem quite different with just as many opinions. I'm a 9-trait crafter, have all DLC's, so I have access to all crafted sets. I have my VR16 robust Agility set and also the robust Briarheart jewelry set in epic. Any advice is welcome. Thank you.

Hunding's Rage will be your best bet for a 5 piece.

Possible Armor combos:
5 Hunding's Rage (HR), 4 Night Mother's Gaze (NM)

5 HR, 2 NM, 1 Molag Kena(MK), 1 Blood Spawn(BS)

5 HR, 2NM, 2 BS

5HR, 3NM, 1 BS/MK


*Honorable mentions for second set:
Night Silence
Morkuldin
Shield breaker

Jewelry:
Either agility set with 2 weapon dmg and one recovery enchant, or endurance with all 3 weapon dmg enchants on it. I feel like endurance set is better because it helps with your squishy nature and gives you recovery and allows you to do all 3 weapon dmg enchants and not suffer from low recovery.

Weapons:

Either daggers (Khajiit/high crit build) or swords (Orcs, Imperials) if you want to use dual wield. Maces work as well if you don't do high crit and focus on penetration.

2H Maul (preferred) or Greatsword. Axe bug is fixed. This is almost always included on a build for Rally.

Sword and shield is only good for PvP imo, but its op if done right.

Bow is best for your back bar because it is good for PvP for snipe and venom arrow, but it is the best in PvE for a Nightblade. Keeps you away, high dps from snipe and weaving in heavy/venom arrows.



Let me know if you need combo tips as well or if this was helpful.

Its bursty but I wouldnt say its high dps.

You have the jewelry.
Hundings 5 pc
Either Morkuldin or Night Mothers

Molag Kena if you can tolerate the grind, 2 more of the second crafted set if you can't.

I main DW and offhand Bow or 2 Handed depending on mood and need.

I use shadow for a Mundus because crit percentage is already pretty high and Shadow give higher crit damage.

The hang-up between PVP and PVE is probably jewelry Enchants, you'll want +damage in PVE and +Regen in PVP, depending on race you may want to chose one or split the difference.

I run this setup (except my main weapon is a 2H sword) plus agility jewelery on my Stamblade and it's a pretty good compromise for both PvE and PvP.
