Least favourite class and why?

Warden so strong, I am having a tough time with them, and I was against them adding a new class when the others were not completely balanced. But hey, life goes on.

Dustfinger81

Templar

Templar. I keep trying to make one but the bright light animations and themes of the powers makes it harder to get outside of the box as some of the other classes. Possibly because priests/paladins are so prevalent in other games and lore.

max_only

To play? Dragonknight.
In general? Sorcerer. Can't stand half of them most the time. Sorcs always looking for some snip to complain about.

ofSunhold

Dragon knight

Least favorite because I've never managed to play one and not be terrible.

Also I don't like them when they're yanking me around, petrifying me, or barfing poison on me. My opinion improves a lot when one stands between me and Bad though.

Sorcerer

...and all the Mages in every game.

1)The majority of people create mages in mmorpgs because of the ez ranged dps. They think that they can beat melee fighters hiding behind their groups KSing their warrior allies. Whether they can win or not I don't care, it's just that cowardly way of thinking that makes me look down on them.
I love killing Mages. No respect for them. I my mind I teabag them without a fail even though I don't teabag enemies. Always gf to a fallen fighter.

2)I like the concept of Mighty Swordsmen, Heroic Knights, and Berserk Brutes rather that a guy dressed in robes. (females are ok tho xD )



From fighters I dislike roques and never miss a chance to duel them.

ListerJMC

Templar

Templar, mostly because I find the bright light animations irritating and the class' concept as a whole doesn't interest me.

Ghanima_Atreides

Night blade

Nightblade, specifically StamBlade, because they have little to no mitigation (especially vs tough bosses). I find the class incredibly difficult to play.

Keldheir

Warden

It used to be Nightblade because in over three years I couldn't find a way to make that class enjoyable to play. Turns out all I needed was a race, appearance and name I liked. I love my new Nightblade.
Warden on the other hand... Sure. They work just fine. My StamDen kann fight, heal, buff and never dies. But she's boring to play. The Warden just has no ability I like. It's all sparkly flowers and fungi and (except for the netch) all the animals I don't like in this game in spectral form, mixed with ice magic, which doesn't fit well with the other skill lines at all. That just doesn't work for me. So, while not the worst class ever, it's not the class for me. But hey, I don't have to play what I don't enjoy.

Agreed.

I also don't really like the playstyle of NBs. Never been a fan of hiding. The whole leeching/siphoning playstyle of mag NB seems cool but I found it too hard to play in PvP. Never tried in PvE.

Enslaved

Templar

Templar. Never liked them, never will.
Some of most broken skills are part of their class arsenal.
BoL b4 nerf was broken beyond logic.
Radiant destruction was and still is most broken execute in entire game.
Extended ritual with its 5 negative effects removal on user is broken af.
Zos should have released Warden as healer from day one, and templar should have been shunned.

Morgul667

Templar

So far I enjoyed MagSorc, StamSorc, MagDK, Stam DK,

Mixed feelings about stam nightblade

Didnt enjoy Magicka Nightblade and Templars.

I just dont enjoy playing templars so far

Olupajmibanan

Warden

Because paywalls.

TheShadowScout

Dragon knight

Simple personal preference. I just never could warm to the firewielders I guess...
...not much of a surprise since its my weakest element!

Night blade

Nightblades... They are beyond overpowered, and have the best passives and self-buffs. It also doesn't help that they: Have the best mobility, can go stealth to engage and disengage, have an execute, have ridiculous healing, have the best crowd control, have pets, have the best burst damage, have great sustain, etc.

It's literally as though the devs said, "Let's make 1 class just clearly outshine the others, and have a bit of everything." Meanwhile... Dragonknights and Templars both lack reliable mobility (unless they go vampire). Dragonknights lack an execute. And just... Ugh. It's ridiculous how favored Nightblades are. "Hey, are you trying to beat Maelstrom first time? Roll a Nightblade!"

I could continue going on and on at how ridiculous unbalanced Nightblades are. So I'll just stop there.

The thing is... Nightblades always were easier to beat VMA with, than Sorcerers. Templars as well. In fact, most guides recommend that if you are new to Maelstrom Arena to use either: a MagBlade or MagPlar. As both can do high damage, sustain well, and heal through the damage being applied to them.

My first Flawless Conqueror was a Nightblade, back on PC-NA. My first Stormproof on console? A Nightblade. And here's the interesting part. I didn't even have all my passives filled, as I was lacking the skill points. I didn't have Undaunted Mettle, or anything. I just barebones it, and got it done with extreme ease. My first Flawless Conqueror on console was my Sorcerer, and my second was a Nightblade. Followed by Templar and DK.

Also, a Nightblade has better mobility than a Sorcerer. Lol. You do know this, yes? As there's a penalty applied for every Bolt Escape that you do in succession. There is no penality for Nightblades' mobility skill. None. Also, Nightblades have better self-buffs and passives than Sorcerers. Last I checked, Sorcerers didn't have any berserk buffs. Nor any of the other cheesy self-buffs that Nightblades have. If a Sorcerer got even half of the self-buffs and amazing passives Nightblades have, then you'd truly know the term "overpowered".

So no. Sorcerers are not more so favored than Nightblades. In fact, I'll tell you what. Lol. Let me know when Sorcerers make up the vast majority of players in Cyrodiil, and then we can debate this further. As right now, for every Sorcerer there is? There is 3 to 4 Nightblades. And I think we both know why that is.

Sorcerer because the process to despawn pets is annoying. Also, it's annoying when Sorcs have their Winged Twilights spawned in compact areas like banks and crafting stations because it obstructs the view.

Next time you're in Cyrodiil, count how many Nightblades you come across compared to any other class. I can guarantee you that you will see way more Nightblades than any other class. Or if you're not a Cyrodiil guy, just see how many people request a duel with you are Nightblades. Again, most people will be Nightblades.

Not fire.

phaneub17_ESO

Night blade

Not enough Class AOE spells I think there's a total of 2, feels directionless compared to other classes. I'm guessing they're meant to be single target badassery, but that can be achieved and surpassed by all other classes. Maybe they're PvP oriented so I never experience their true potential as I don't PvP, in PvE they feel out of place.

Yes, this feels very true to me, especially of Stamina Nightblades.

So far for me it's been Templar, I just don't enjoy the way the skill feel vs the other classes.

Belidos

My least favorite class has always been geography, i'd rather be out there exploring it than in a class room being told about it

code65536

Templar

Probably Templar and Warden. It's the two classes that I've spent the least amount of time with and that never clicked with me.

Favorite would be the magicka nightblade.

Exactly. In a new meta where resources are the key to survival, NB's do exceptionally well because of their ability to disengage/engage at will, all the while regaining resources, not to mention the extremely powerful spammable execute they have.

What Cyrodiil we talk about? Non CP, under 50? There, maybe.

In grown up Cyrodiil with CP there are clearly more sorcerers than anyone sane would like.
The way you write, someone might be fooled that we live in 1.6...

Night blade

It was a close call between NB and DN but the NB won.

My preferred classes have always been Staff-wielding ones - albeit I sometimes use twin-blades on the back-bar.
It is the Active Sills that get me. I have not learnt how and when to uses them. They are very 'alien' to me.

I have not given up on the NB just yet and I have a gorgeous, staff-wielding cLv 23 NB, waiting in the wings for some TLC and proper instructions from me. Nevertheless, even without proper management, she is knocking the socks off of everything she meets - at this low level.
