Which weapons did you use for leveling your Nightblade ?

vpy

I am currently playing with lot of different options about the Nightblade leveling.

Take a second and just let me know which weapons did you use the most while leveling your nightblade.

Tryxus

Destro Staff + Resto Staff

MagBlade: Destro (Fire) + Resto
StamBlade: 2h + DW

Galwylin

Bow + DW

I really wanted to vote "A Sorcerer".

Violynne

Bow + DW

I'm working on two *Blades right now.

For my magBlade: lightning staff for both bars.

For my stamBlade, whose only level 10: DW on front bar, and Bow on back once it's unlocked.

I wanted to create two separate classes rather than one I can repec into another, because I want to see the game changes for myself.

Even at 10 levels, I can see the difference.

stamBlades need CC and a buff in sustain.

Morbash

Destro Staff + Resto Staff

Depends on if I'm leveling a magblade or stamblade.

Magblade - destro and resto
Stamblade - DW and bow

Vilelated

Bow, Bow. I would buy the first skill in a line and put it on my bar and second bar was a quest turn in bar. Was a mix of one ability from 6 lines.
dest, resto, 1h/s, 2h, DW, class ulty or vamp ulty.
Main bar was 1 or 2 bow, 2 or 3 class plus 5th slot on a line was focused on leveling a specific line plus a class ulty.
Kill xp on bow bar, quest xp on back bar. Mixed armor while leveling. 3 med, 2 light, 2 heavy. Using xp trait, xp potions etc...

Gargath

Also Bow/Bow.

TerraDewBerry

Destro Staff + Resto Staff

Lightening staff and restro staff

Kiralyn2000

Bow/-

(yeah, yeah. My first character, coming from playing a stealth archer in Skyrim, didn't understand anything about ESO's mechanics, etc.)

Bow + 2H

I used 2H/Bow the most for 1-50. However, that was during console launch when Rally was the best option for Stamina self heals. Levels 20 something to 50 were also done mostly in PVP going after Caltrops. For vet levels I swapped to DW/2H (Steel Tornado + Rally) for farming in CWC.

Today I would probably go with 2H to start, adding DW at 15, and farming PVP for at least Vigor, maybe even Caltrops then swap to DW/Bow for the rest.

For me it doesn't really matter - when levelling I'm unlocking skill lines more than anything else. So I would slot whatever weapons I want to use after leveling early to unlock the most skills possible early on.

Tholian1

Bow + DW

DW and Bow because I can't imagine a rogue using anything else.

Tandor

Bow plus occasional DW daggers for my archer, just dual wield daggers for my assassin. Role-play wise I also have a Khajjit thief who uses a 2H sword because there's nothing more ridiculous than that combination trying to go into stealth.

Destro Staff + Resto Staff

I think 5 out of my 8 characters are Nightblade and I've deleted 4-5 previous characters because I prefer to test classes/skills myself rather than cookie cut my way to boredom.

That said, I feel the most recent NB using Restoration and Destruction staves to be my favorite so far, even over my bow/bow combo ( massive challenge without heals ).

O_LYKOS

Bow + DW

Voted on base of levelling stamina nightblade

Daemons_Bane

Bow + DW

Rogue style
