Magicka night blades are garbage

Tried playing one, and not going for a proxi det build

No heals (without attacking or using resto)

The DPS is just plain horrible.

Oh but I get to stay in stealth for 3 minutes awesome.

Switched back to stamina, even though I am a dark elf, I do much more damage and can still heal (vigor)

Please make magicka nightblades have a use in this game besides detonation.

Thank you.

    L2magblade. Funnel health and soul sap are more than enough to keep you alive.

    Damn even two of the attacks you're using are the same, lotus fan and concealed weapon, off you go and spam the above two ftw. If not cloak away or fear and run. Not hard.

    This is a major L2P moment. Magicka Nightblade are insanely strong even without having to using the proxy soul tether build. They can cloak out of sticky situation, they can deal a massive amount of damage, they can CC you for days, they have a good AOE that heals themself and allies, one of the cheapest ultimates in the game, multiple ways to self heal, the list goes on. You need to do some more research and L2P before you try to make a thread like this.

    OP, you can't be serious. I'm straight up thinking about swapping to Magicka to farm Maelstrom weapons on my NB just because it's less frustrating.

    If your not using det, use a desto/resto build.

    Completely wrong. Without prox det my AOE hits 50-250k depending on pull size with typical finishes in the 60-70k's, My single target is 24-30k. I know a few players that can get 35k-45k single target with a mag NB. As for the healing I have healed all four man runs including vICP with just siphoning attacks and no resto staff with relative ease while getting 15-20k or more single target Dps.
    I didn't choose tank life, tank life chose me.

    We read your post and many have given you great suggestions to improve but if you aren't willing or aren't reading their posts perhaps you should choose a different class to play as mag nb obviously isn't for you, why do you keep posting this?

    I identify as an attack helicopter.. your name is close to appropriation...

    In more serious news... Are you dumb? No sets means your class is barely defined in almost EVERY MMO in existence. More so in ESO where class does not always dictate role. Additionally, class skill lines are not all that exist. EVERY class integrates weaponskill and weapons (duh) into their 'cl;ass' This is 100% L2play.

    If not, which would be even worse, all i can say is L2P.
    Magiblades are awesome, i have a khajiit one, and ever only use teh detonation build when i'm really bored, that girl can even tank / heal vet bc & elden hollow with 3 other dps, besides being one awesome support in pvp, or even a sap tank, heck *** can even gank

    Magic nb is likely the most powerful class build in the game when played correctly. If you can't play it or not good at it or don't like it is not a reason to open a thread on the forum about it. I don't like raisins in my cereal or in my cookies. Tell everyone... Also please tell everyone I am not very good on a skateboard.

    I don't use a res staff and I can heal myself through more than enough to survive when my friends fall.

    Perhaps you should spend more than 5 mins playing a magblade. There are plenty of self heals you don't need a res staff or proxy.

    Sap, Swallow/Funnel, Refreshing path, used in combination are more than enough.
