allen-iverson✭✭✭op stands for obtusely punctual right?I think the most important question still remains unanswered: if Nightblades are "overpowered", why has there never been a dueling tournament winner (do correct me if I'm wrong) from the NB class, and why are top 10s of those tournaments littered with sorcs & DKs instead?
To further buff this argument, aren't NBs also the most popular class? Yet they don't even make it to top 10 of duels.
Maybe @Jules has an answer to this.
I don´t see that much sorcs either. If i´ve not missed anything the last EU 1v1 tourney had 3x stam DK 1x magsorc 1x stamsorc 2x magblade (and the magsorc had luck bc all three stamdks were on the same faction as the sorc).
No idea how the 2v2 event went.
2v2 was 2 stamnb and 2 mag sorcs both teams AD.
Well, I more meant the 1v1 tournaments :P
They've always traditionally had DKs & Sorcs taking the top places.
I remember back when stam NBs were atleast playable in duels, like half a year ago... they still didn't make it to top 5 of dueling tournaments. Now they're worse than they've ever been and people want to nerf them even more
Honestly i can´t think of a top stamNB player even participating in the last tournament. But i might be missing someone.
If no stamblade signs up they´re not likely to get top places
.
stamblades know their place I'm afraid...
That´s hardly an argument. If none of the top players compete there is no reason to complain the class gets no top placement in the tournaments.
If those players had fought and all lost early on it would be a different story.
Derra, you think any stamblade actually wants to fight against the unkillable stam DKs & magicka templars?
There's a very good reason I never show up at duels with my nightblade - it's just not an enjoyable experience.
Wasting time in a tournament knowing you can only win if your bracket has only other nightblades - well... can you blame people for not wanting to participate?
We'll see in next Saturday's tournament if there's any NBs competing - there's been a lot of sign ups for that. I'll be on my templar (with whom I have 5x less experience than on my NB) because atleast I can know there's a chance of winning.

Yes I'm sure Jules would lose too mainly because she's from NA and Dduke is from EU and Jules will be fighting the ping issues more than she will be fighting Duke but great idea I agree! @Ragnaroek93
You can pick any NB from EU megaserver to fight my Templar and he/she would lose. Alternatively, you can make them fight a stam DK of my choosing & the NB would lose as well.
Not because my Templar is op or anything, but because stam NBs are ridiculously weak against anything they can't burst down - they lack sustained damage and they lack defenses against opponents' sustained damage.
This makes them weak in 1v1 scenarios where they cant just gank their target.
There was another big dueling tournament in EU just a couple days ago (you might've seen the threads) - unsurprisingly not a single stamina NB made it to top 5
This^
All we have is burst. My only hope against a Templar is that they over-commit to killing me and forget about my burst potential (a mistake decent Templars don't make). The author and others want to take away the only thing our class is good at. What does that leave? A class even more reliant on stealth-play that it already is? Pretty sure we can all agree that we don't need more emphasis on stealth play in ESO.2 -
Lokey0024✭✭✭✭✭Im still trying to wrap my head around people claiming this. What is it you think is lacking? Dots? Regen? Damage midigation? Healing reduction? Seriously asking.
