Stamblade pirate build

Hi, I've a new question for you :smiley:

I want to know what is the better build for a nightblade stamina darkelf.

1 Dominhaus helm
5 Bone pirate (cops, bracers, belt, guards and boots)
5 senche (jack, jewelry, bow)
vMA maul.

or a build made by Hunding rage and nightmother and agility jewelry.

With the second one, there is a weapon damage of about 3100 and a critical of 55/60%. How can be better the first build?

    I assume this is for PVP. The top build actually sounds really interesting because being highly mobile on either bar will buff you. Realistically it will be hard to keep the sench buff up, but easy enough to get the buff to line up with your burst. Honestly I've never seen/found a good build for senche before and what you've got seems best.

    If this build is for PvE then neither is really optimal and you may want to look at some other builds. If it is for PvE then an easy way to improve the top build would be to replace Senche with Briar heart, so you proc briarthorns on your bow bar. It would be better but definitely not the best.
    #1 tip (Re)check your graphics settings periodically - especially resolution.

    Sorry, it's for PvE.

    What's the best?

    Firstly, with a new update around the corner it may not be worth doing any theory crafting because things could change.

    Here is a link to what is generally considered the meta build.

    https://alcasthq.com/eso-stamina-nightblade-build-for-pve/

    Personally I LOVE the bone pirate set because you can spam abilities without the dps loss of lots of heavy attacks, and it suits my playstyle better than the meta. I am not a theory crafter but the best build I have found so far for my stamblade is;

    5 piece bone pirates, armour/jewels
    2 piece velidreth, (1 heavy and 1 light)
    3 pieces Briarheart armor/jewels
    2 daggers briar heart (front bar)
    1 maelstrom bow (back bar, use briar heart bow if no vMA)

    The idea is that your bow bar is more than just a buff bar. I use briar heart because the briarthorns proc carries over onto my bow and affects my heals and bow attacks. It's the same idea with velidreth, my monster set can proc off of ranged abilities.

    The only (and I hate it) problem of the bone pirate is the drink. There is only one drink, no recipes in the vendor. 20 drink cost 10k

    But that's a good build.

    I run 5 bone pirate, 5 senche (on back bar with infused bow) and one domihaus but with the asylum weapon instead of maelstrom. LA with infused bow to proc weapon damage enchant and roll cancel that for senche proc and a bar swap and the burst is wicked. Really awesome build with high burst potential whenever you wanted. 60% crit and high regen (I’m a wood elf) A bunch of CP into defile and defiling poison on front bar so I could debuff healing by 62%. Absolutely brutal. Not a build for everyone but once it’s mastered look out. Plus a well timed dodge with senche before weapon swap if they attack to proc tactician which benefits even more from exploiter made lots of people explode. I would also make sure spectral bow was procd so the damage was extremely high and I use the spectral bow to take down shields too (48 CP into shattering blows) and the incap and a reverse slice would be enough to kill most pesky sorcs.

    A lot of people write of senche because they just don’t get the play style. 3 well fitted and a bunch into tumbling and I could roll dodge for ages, making senche perfect.

    Yes dubious is expensive so that’s why I craft it hehe.

    You’re in luck! Just wait until the next duplicate event happens again and you’ll get dubious camoran throne because ZoS likes to just repeat everything! What was the event again? Wasn’t it during spring?

    Hi Guys,

    Whilst we on the subject of NB, can any gankers give some advice please.

    I recently brought my ganker out of retirement so as to form a hit squad will a couple of NB guildies for Cyro and Imperial City.

    She’s a stam running duel with bow back bar.

    The idea behind the build and since poison is still so strong (Just ask my sorc when being hit from stealth and my health bar takes a massive dip), is to focus around that.

    Basically I want to put out so much poison damage that the enemy soils him/herself (either from the effects of the poison or from fear).

    My initial setup was:

    5x spriggans, 5xUnfathomable Darkness, blood spawn.
    Now the crows are freaking cool but it feels like not enough damage so here is the next set up:

    5xMorag Tong, 5x Spiggans, Slime Claw.

    Is this the way to go or will another setup give me more poison damage.
