Nightblades and Sorcs are the most common classes for the reasons already stated. In addition, DKs is considered the 'tanking' class and most people don't like tanking.

In terms of pvp I'd rate the classes as follows:

DKs > Templar > Warden > Sorcs > Nightblades

DKs seem the most powerful, Templars are a really good all around class, Wardens are good, Sorcs spend most of their time keeping themselves alive and not contributing to the group, NIghtblades are too easy to kill.

/facepalm...what game are you playing?

Lets fix this so MagPlar>Stam Warden>stamblade>magdk>mag sorc>magblade>stamsorc>stamplar>magwarden>stamdk

On those notes; you have to remember that only Nightblade and Sorcerer are traditional TES classes.

skyrim builds all are 0-max-0 and light armor
sneak archer
dagger and shield thief since killshot are performed with 1 weapon only
2 handed sword light armor
sword and destruction spell
mage all builds
sword and board

Well yeah, Skyrim didn't have classes.
But sneaky archer assassin kinda lends itself to nightblade.
I wish they had the old TES archetypes in this game instead of DK, Templar etc.
Far better variety.

Actually many players are playing Sorcs and NB. Why? Are they performing better than other classes ?

Not anymore since nerfmire. Nightblades are still popular both versions but there is a far more played class then sorcys. Though it depends on what content you play.

Well warrior would be dragonknight, I play one not in small degree because I strongly feel with the knight archetype. No classes get by without any magic, not even stamblades.

Dragonknight is way too flashy to be a Warrior. They look more like a melee-caster.
Dont get me wrong, I love that. But it surely doesnt fit the classic Warriortheme.

Yes nightblades are performing much better than other classes.

I would like to know your reason behind this. Examples of how they are op over other classes.

They have the best mobility and when combined with an inferno staff you'd have a hard time even getting near one

hmm stamblades are mobile sure, but they dont have the best mobility. And then you mentioned mobility combined with an inferno staff... Magblades are very immobile and have a lot of trouble with snares, im not sure you are sure of what you're saying

From a PVP standpoint they can do a ton of damage with just a few abilities much quicker than other classes, Nasty CC, and then to top it off can vanish and reset the fight at will if their losing. That vanish right in your face is ridiculous. That's why you see a lot of them in PVP. Like Geico says:

They stealth and do massive damage with bleeds and poisons. They have the best mobility and when combined with an inferno staff you'd have a hard time even getting near one. Heaven help you if they're using a proc set.

I was going to write a long reply to this but I just decided to delete it and just say this:

I am glad the class representatives exist and PVP players who understand multiple builds speak for the community to the devs. God bless them.

Sometimes i think that most NBs on the PC EU Server are Stamina ones. Dont know If I am right or not.

You got data to back this claim up? No? Then I don't buy what you're selling. Data or it didn't happen.

Just because one player knows and understand their rotation and can caclulate damage/builds doesn't mean 99% of the population can.

People need to stop basing how OP a build or class is based on a single player or even a handful. That is why nerfs happen. Accept they know and understand the build better than you and you deserved to die and move on. A lesser understanding or casual player shouldn't be winning to someone with better understanding of PVP and builds.

This is also how PVE gets nerfed because people can't accept they aren't as good but think they should be on par with someone better.

Also: If anyone copy and pastes someone elses build they deserve to die in PVP because you have no idea what you are actually doing and hopefully will adjust your build based on how you play and not cry that Alcasts build didn't work for you.
