Nightblades Overperforming

    NB is OP. Easily the best class in the game and takes zero skill to play. Nerf for sure!

    Plague DoctorStacking enough health, good communication, and proper stam support are the counter to getting negated, not degrading your overall group quality.

    LOL, I actually do run Plague Doctor in small groups or when I'm pugging as a healer (not in my raid group), and I don't even have to block when a bomber rolls in. I laugh, because that's so true.

    Still, I think the key word is min/max. A group that goes min/max is going to see maximum results - I know, I've fought them and lost - until groups figure out the counter and start hitting them where they are weak - I know that too, it takes a while to figure out the weaknesses, but a min/max group always has a minimum side as well.

    Nightblades may be overperforming in the bomber or destro damage pain train but the thing I love about Cyrodiil is that one or two playstyles hardly encompasses the whole of PVP in Cyrodiil. A nightblade might be superior to all other classes in that role, but that role can be easily countered. There's nothing wrong with a class performing well or better than others in a role - I mean, if you want clutch heals, you get a Templar with Breath of Life.

    There's a place for support builds that aren't magplars.

    I agree with your sentiment and not everyone has to min/max. I'm just pointing out that if you're seeking to perform on the highest levels in large scale pvp, as a damage spec, you CANNOT compete with similarly skilled mageblades. It's all in fun, of course, I main mageblade(solo/small group tho) and don't want to see ANY nerfs come our way but it legitimately hurts build diversity and it makes the competitive floor for guild v guild VERY high. You need X Mageblade damage builds, X Stamina supports(sorcs, wardens usually since encase, negate, permafrost, corrupting), X magika support specs(Healers, CC, whatever) and if you're already facing a more experienced group you'll be hard pressed to get wins over them if they've got the tighter group comp.

    Or maybe I'm posting about large scale mageblades as smoke and mirrors so my build doesn't get nerfed ;)

    Well you can't argue with mount speed too. It definitely has an unfair advantage over those that just started playing

    Despite this being a blatant troll thread, I will agree that mounts are pretty FeelsBadMan for newer players in Cyrodiil. Cyrodiil needs a rental service that gives everyone a horse with Max Speed + Stamina while there. Tether it to an early Alliance Rank to give a slight incentive to PvP a bit before you go get all those Skyshards.

    But then EVERYBODY who knows that max speed with rapids outruns a second snipe will survive NB bow gank. That's simply not fair to long term players!

    Too little damage, too much cost. I say 33% damage Increase to all abilities with about 50% ult cost reduction. Definitely UP, for reasons I don't even have to logically prove. Buff ZoS buff, you listen to every one of these. Do it now. Come on, do it.

    Haha, I mentioned this when frag nerf was first mentioned... good luck against melee classes without stun...

    Why bother making a PTS if you don't even bother to try it/listen to anyone that tried it...

    now remove shieldstack and nerf mines. If nobody bothers to play a class, then you don't have to balance it. (Smart)
