No more minor berserk.
No more major fracture (unless you use Reaping Mark, which is a pain).
Cast times added to ultimates (Incap and Dawnbreaker).
They did something to mess up the spectral bow; I can't even remember what now.
The class in general feels like a shadow (hur hur get it?!?! Shadow?!?!) of its former self. I'm not someone who jumps from meta class to meta class, but I just had to shelve mine for now. It's just too sad to see what the class has become.
So the class is useless now? I better play another class? Because i wanted to play a rogue themed class. I will try it anyway.
99& of the time I play stamblades. Yes it's not as good as it should be, but it's not useless. You can still play it and have fun and be effective if you know how to play it. Not to mention that from time to time, classes and specs change as far as how good they are compared to each other.
Snipers are in a decent place for PvP, while melee stamblades have it tougher, but your skill with them will make the biggest difference. As far as the spectral bow goes, it's one of the more buggy abilities in Cyrodiil at least, it will usually go of eventually but can be a real pain in the ass when it doesn't want to work.
So if you want to play a rogue themed class like I do, go for it. Even if it's not the best performing class out there, I still have way more fun with it than with whatever is considered the best class. And if you're not having fun while playing a game, then what's the point of playing?
You will def be outclassed by the pay 2 win classes.
Good news though -all your old abilities are going to the new pay 2 win vamp line in the next chapter -Woot. You will be able to feel glorious again.
Pay 2 win. You serious? What is p2w about Warden and Necro?
And you know that vampire skill line will be changed in the base game, right?
Do you even know what p2w means?
The higher MMR you get the less usefull nightblade becomes when it comes to BG's. The lack of group utility and easy avoidable burst combination doesn't make it suitable for BG's vs competent and/or meta setups (wardens, stamcro)......

The choice is yours.

Just a question now. I always liked to be a dunmer,however they rely on magicka builds in the past,so i was forced to play a stamina race for play a stamina nightblade. Now after watching the wiki,dunmers can be good either stamina or magicka builds.
So after see that,i rethink it and i want to be a dunmer for my stamina nightblade. Also they have better physical attack on the last racial passive skill. But i do not know if i do a correct change,because khajiits now have the three stats regens,health,stamina and magicka.
The dunmers however have more stamina and increased physical attack now,as well as more magicka and spell attack. That is why i say that they can be stamina or magicka classes.
A better insight for the question should be good. But whatever the answer is,i will choose dunmer now,because i prefer them over the feline heads khajiits.
Khajiit & Dunmer are both great races for NBs, you really can't go wrong with either of them. The nice thing is that they both work well for magicka and stamina toons, so if you decide you want to try playing magblade at some point, on either one of them all it takes is a trip to the respect shrines & you're good to go.
