What is your favorite class to play in pvp and why?

For me its a Magnightblade because I can pick my battles, I can assassinate targets but also still hold my own in a small fight. I can leave if I need to or I can just sit back and watch. While its weaker then other class's in open world I value being able to pick my battles and the mobility of stealth for scouting to be so high! I don't want to be a strait up assassin but I also dont want to be a magika caster sitting in the back, magblade fuses the two perfectly for my playstyle. So what is it that you love about your class? Is it spamming dawnbreaker to watch the entire group infront of you drop, is it spamming wings so reflect 10 thousand shots? Using Breath of Life and clense to support your entire group? Being able to jabs through waves of enemys? Hitting that dragon leap and diving head first into the battle? One shotting squishys from stealth? Is it group mechanics or solo mechanics?

What is it that makes it your favorite to play?

Whichever one I'm playing at the time.

I mostly play a MagDK Healer and a Stam Warden DD. Both have strengths, weaknesses, and are fun to play.

I just love the colors and ability to go in and out of fights

However, it's way harder to play than most classes, ESPECIALLY if you are laggy (which is nearly always on my xbox one). It's just way easier to play my stam warden and stamblade. There are people who say MagNB is OP right now but it's one of the least popular classes in cyrodil on xbox, so I don't buy it that much. Powerful in great hands and little lag, but being able to keep yourself up while weaving and then doing the incap/bow combo isn't as easy as some of the combos stamwarden and stamplar can pump out.

Magika Warden

I use sorc, Templar, and warden for PvP (I have used others just prefer not to use NBs and DKs atm)

Of the 3 I prefer warden

Stamina Sorcerer

I love playing mobile classes in any game, just the feeling of being able to weave my way around a fight feels super fun.

Plus I have a soft spot for any wind warrior character archetype.

And as an added bonus the class is good against Nightblades

Brutusmax1mus

Magika Templar

This class can do it all. I've managed to succeed with ranged, melee, pure healer, bs tank, support dps, support healer, pure dps.

Stam sorc all the way for me. Whether it is META or worst class of the moment. I just like the mobility

Nothing more satisfying than crushing enemies beneath a meteor and making them explode with Fury.

For the Leaps (when it works).

I must hate myself, though. I've never been as frustrated with the class I love.

I’m with you on this one. I’ve tried stamblade, stamplar, stam warden and I always come back to Stam Sorc it just makes sense to me even if it’s a little lacking atm. Plus no one can *** that your class is op or p2w when you beat them. It’s also fun to play a class that’s a bit more rare.

Magika Nightblade

Magica Nightblade, just so many opportunites. Bombing with Shadow Image is stupidly fun, being able to just cloak around everywhere is just a great feeling and they also make surprisingly good raid healers. The burst heal on Soul Siphon is seriously underused and underestimated.

They also make the best questers, since you can basically skip all the trash mobs and annihilate them if you need to fight em.

Turelus

Magika Nightblade

MagBlade.

It offers a lot of interesting styles.

Stamina Dragonknight

They are not OP
They are not Roques
They are not Mages
They are not Paladins

Thet are something that I have never seen in another mmorpg. And they are warriors

Checkmath

Magika Templar

i love my magplar^^
the class isnt in a good spot, but nonetheless i make it work for me, so i dont care. i will continue smashing players with it.

Edziu

Magika Templar

Magblade has been one of the most popular classes for awhile simply because of bombing and the fact ball groups and farmers have them in their groups. There was a time every week you’d see a magnb for Emperor.

Tigeracer

Stamina Nightblade

I said stamblade, because I’ve only ever played the one character since early release on PC. I’ve also taken time away from ESO a few times, which explains why I still suck, even after having played for so long

Grimlok_S

Stamina Templar

Its like running through a crowd with a chainsaw, full throttle.

Vizier

Stamina Nightblade

I like the mobility and ability, for the most part, to pick and choose when and where I fight.

Aznox

Stamina Sorcerer

It's my main and only char and it's just as fun as it was 4 years ago

Stam Sorc has some of the lowest amount of BS mechanics of any class.
About the only thing cheesy about them is Implosion, and the majority of time that doesn't come into play anyway.

Magsorc, always scores a solid 8/10 in every pvp content. 1vX, Duo, small scale, raid.

I love streak/BoL, the burst potential and able to support groupmembers with wards and resto ult.

Magplar is the second best mag class atm, the first being sorc, for pvp

Group. Yes. Solo. Haha no.

I'm most comfortable with a sorc.

Stamina Warden

For me its probably my Warden Tank, its great AoE CCs and long ranged teleport makes it a great troll tank that can pull people away and get them nuked by your team or alliance. Nothing funnier than pull someone in or out of a breach and see them get destroyed in a split second or two.

MagBlade, the ability to stealth out of a fight I can't win saves my life so many times. Especially so if I am caught by surprise. Combat can be less satisfying than a magical attacks from a MagSorc.

Sometimes playing my tank build can help when enemies have a more difficult time defeating my damage taking capacity.

I recall a stalemate where one other player could not do enough damage to grind down my tank because he was so optimised against taking damage. I could not defeat the other player either as being so geared towards taking damage I dealt very poor damage in return. We got locked into a drawn out stalemate.

I will adjust how I play to suit the class I am playing. My MagPlar is a healer so I would heal. I struggle to get satisfying DPS out of any of my Stamina builds.

Love fire base skills but playing open world pvp right now feels like bashing my head against the wall but I still love the class.
