Stamblade Ganking Montage

Ectheliontnacil

Hey!

I had some time to kill yesterday so I edited together some old stamblade ganking clips. I think there's much better ganking set ups out there currently, but I haven't really played the game for months - apologies if this isn't up to date. Anyways hope you enjoy!

nice, u should probably replace the channeled acceleration with relentless focus tho so you can do 10% more dmg

yeah for the times you switch to ur 2h bar after attacking, but i noticed that alot of the times u do not switch over to ur 2h bar and stay on ur bow bar for the kill, thus missing out on that dmg you could potentially have

Oh didn't realise they changed that. So it only grants major berserk when slotted? It used to grant major berserk for the 20s duration.
Well yeah, then definitely find a way to put relentless on your frontbar. ^^

no im talking about the hemorrhage passive that grants you 10% more crit dmg with an assassination ability slotted (via that bar)

Oh rip! Hahah as I said I haven't played in ages so I completely forgot about that. Ye then best to unslot dawnbreaker on the frontbar I'd say. Thx for the pointing this out

or u could just keep flawless dawnbreaker on the front for the extra dmg boost and just switch relentless with channeled , unless ur dead set on having that on ur backbar for the dmg boost when executing, but even then u could always slot killers blade instead of executioner to maintain the passive

@rabidrufus64 You're right again but acceleration is really sweet on your frontbar, gives you great mobility in stealth with concealed weapon. The major expedition only lasts three so backbarring it is awkward. The channel morph is clunky as well, when you really need the speed you don't want to be caught in animation .

ShadowProc

Very nice. I tried it with imperfect bow awhile back. Couldn’t get it to work consistently.

Haha well same here mate! Doesn't always work but I only upload the ones I manage to pull off .

Also I have the perfected bow, but the dmg difference is only 5% I think, so it should still work. Just need to be on the lookout for squishy targets.

ShadowProc

Ya. What would you switch up now?

I’ve been running Balorgh,Swamp Raider, and Spriggan. It sure if there is better.

ahh yeah didnt realize u was using the race against time morph, still tho dont u have major expedition from bow on roll dodge? ik that costs stamina but most likely u would roll dodge and enter cloak anyways which also costs magicka (just a tad bit more than race against time)

and if you cast race against time to get away wouldnt you either be cloaking which would use up more magicka or sprinting which would use up stamina that dodge rolling also costs for the major expedition haha

idk just rambling on alot today i guess

Hmmm personally I don't see the benefit of Balorgh, since you're not using an ultimate pre gank (as far as I know). Swamp raider imo is also outperformed by other sets.

I this video I was using Spriggans/Morag Tong/Perfected Asylum Bow (5pc 5pc 2pc) with drinks. Or Marksman's/Morag Tong + trifood.

There's plenty of options. I'd always go with Morag Tong though, since it offers a 10% dmg increase to your snipe, enchant and acid spray. Which is more than any other set provides .

@rabidrufus64 Good point, you get expedition from dodging. But the problem with that is that you leave stealth when you dodge roll (thus revealing yourself to nearby enemies and losing the 25% bonus from concealed).

This way there really isn't a need to leave stealth ever. Just feels more effortless to play that way imo. But as you said, you lose some dmg because of it .

olsborg

Nice ganking, eventho I feel these kind of dmg numbers shouldnt be possible, anyone should always have a chance at fighting back.

Swamp raider buffs everything in my combo. Snipe, incap, Killer’s blade, poison injection.

I open with Snipe, PI, ambush in Incap. If I don’t finish them off then spam Killer’s blade.

I don’t go after just squishies. The reason I like Balorgh is the buff to damage really helps finish of the tankier targets.

Could I use two 1 piece weapon sets, sure. But I am not sure that would help finish off those tankier targets where the extra damage from Balorgh really helps. Usually I kill so many squishy targets that by the time I need Balorgh, my ultimate is up to like 200 to 300 or so. It allows me to tank 30k+ health targets.

heavier

huh

I like ganking but I don't like ganking that way

snipe ganking is maximum cheese, I prefer a regular setup for my sNB and go ganking, some times I fail and get t-bagged, that's where the fun lies.
