    Hopefully, the underdog class Nightblade will raise from the dead in the future.
    Unfortunately, it appears that it won't happen in Update 26.

    Overall balancing of classes will be at least 3 months later, in Update 27.
    Though given what's been happening with Nightblade in the last year I won't be surprised if ZOS won't buff it even then.
    Maybe Nightblade will get more unjustified nerfs in the future...
    It seems more realistic than buffs.
    Some videos I recorded for fun: Main character:
    PC EU main: Universe - AD magicka Sorcerer, Former Emperor, Grand Overlord, The Merciless, Trial Bosses Solo Champion
    Top alts: Genius(stamina/sagicka Dragonknight) The Force(stamina Nightblade) and other chars.
    PC NA main: The Magic - AD magicka Sorcerer

    From ZOS POV NB had to be nerfed, it was very popular class because it was strong and connected with rouge archetype the most (which is very popular in TES games). People wasn't buying Wardens and Necroes.

    Will they buff NBs? Doubt it. More like they will cover even more nerfs with useless "buffs".

    — They always claim they’re “investigating” the causes, but in reality they’re just waiting until the PC EU players go to bed. Once that happens, you can suddenly log in again and they happily mark the issue as Fixed.

    I used to main a Stamsorc for 4 years and then they ruined dizzy and the class was already on a downhill, then I switched to magnecro and have played it since elsweyr even though it's one of the weakest classes in pvp, because it's fun. But with the blastbones changes and now this I can just say that I'm out. I don't want to play this game anymore and it won't matter if they fix everything. [snip]
