Wut?

Well you see the art of the stamblade has been long forgotten and only a shadow image remains.

It becoming pretty fun how people in cyro sharing mentality that cloack/streak/sprint with speedbuff and snare immunity and immovable pots a = 100% reset of any fight. And ragewhispering you about it/calling tryharder because it seems you have to stand still and shake them hand in farewell when they running away to gank less resilient victim.
P.s.: oftenly even bragging how far they were able to run away before wipe. Make you feel that sprinting is top-tier skill in this game.

As a naughty, naughty stam nightblade, the adrenaline rush from the 'OMG! how the hell did I get out of that!' moment is greater than taking players out !

just sayin'.

hehe

Just putting pressure on an opponent is half the battle otherwise most of our skills would be executes
Retreating is in no way a loss or even a win for your opponent

Unless your target retreats into a zerg around a corner...I got a little too hungry for the kill on the weekend lol

Delimber · January 2018

I play many different toons in Cyrodiil. So I know the joy of ganking and killing gankers.

And last night, I'd like to think one ganker learned not to play with fire when a vampire lol

But that little bugger kept lighting my siege on fire, so I lit him on fire.

And I must say, that has to be the most annoying thing the magblades are doing imo, burning sieges lol

But I can also see the fun in it

You´d rather have ppl die without chance to fight back when outnumbered?

I think you are misunderstanding him here. He's talking about your average ganker that tries to gank and runs away when he/she fails + complains about you chasing and killing him. I do find those people funny aswell tbh.

I personally never had anyone bragging about how far they could run before they died tho it would be very funny to have someone doing that. it would make for a funny conversation lol

I dont think anyone says something about ppl repositioning theirselves or trying to get LoS cause thats what every half decent player does alooooooooot.

If your only idea of enjoying the game when you can´t beat someone is to waste their time and make the game unenjoyable for them by being an annoying pest you are exactly that: a loser - and a sore one at that.

Thank you! It seems at least one person understands the point of my public service announcement!

I would not care if someone does run away. But if you just run away to just try to gank me over and over again i really get triggert.

Thank you. Yes this.

Sounds like the Nightblade is the winner.

First, we wasted your time killing other people.
Second, we gained experience in learning how to fight your style and adjust to take that playstyle on more effectively.

Learning is winning.

"I won, you ran away, it is a loss and I am better than you!!!111!"

Get real, it is a game. If someone tried to kill you and they didn't, they didn't win... but if you didn't kill them, you didn't win either.

I have left fights because I knew I couldn't win that fight, because I had to get somewhere else for something more meaningful, because the odds changed when I seen someone stealth not far away, ect...

Stop taking yourself so seriously.

In 5 years this game will be a memory and none of your "cred" will mean a thing. Take it from someone who has been playing MMO games for 20 years, I have been on the top and yet nobody cares who I am... because I don't matter, neither do you.

I have chased and killed some of the best players on the servers after they failed ganks. Doesn't make them lesser, it just means that they failed to get the gank and were at a disadvantage.

Ofc it doesent make them lesser. though I dont agree with you when it comes to the 'they were at a disadvantage' part. They are at an advantage before and during the gank and when they failed they fight on even terms with the player they just tried to gank. If the ganker escapes, good for him. but If he tries to escape + you actually are able to kill him during his escape attempt and he then complains about you chasing him down and even brags about how far he got -- thats funny but also an absolutely unnecessary reaction to what just happened If you are honest.

If you are fighting 1v1, fall below 20% health multiple times only to cloak away each time and finally just bounce for good after the 3rd of 4th time when you realize you have no shot at winning the fight it counts as a loss for you. Just saying.

No, it's a draw.

Yup.... did that at least twice last night... " OH you have WINGS!? SCREW YOU BUDDY... Ambush > Surp Attack > Fear > Cloak run 20 ft away... Decloak.... stare him down.... " You can't catch me buddy... and I can't kill you... " >:(

Gilvoth · January 2018

maybe if zenimax makes us stamina nightblades able to fight toe to toe with other classes.
we are stealth based, we stealth, it is what we do because we are stealth class.

yup, and the magblade doesn't have the burst to take down the mega-tank.

It would not be much of a mega-tank if it could be bursted down though.

I don't even bother to 1v1 nightblades. They'll just cloak away 98% of the time. I also love foiling their ganks by shielding and streaking away

Let's drop the act. If you started to lose, you would mash combat reset button even if you fought another cloaking sneak.

That´s fine in my book if you no longer attack him or try to occupy your opponents time?

However if you just spam bowheavy + PI constantly over minutes without any intention of actually trying to fight and instantly run as soon as the player turns their caracter towards you - not cool.

Now get on my (entry) level.

This one showed two things.

1) That someone who has been a stamblade since before it was a good idea does a thing some silly elf types say is not a thing.

2) They are far far funnier when using the quote function.

3) You will not get this joke.
