Frustration total NB archer

So when I play NB archer in BG (no CP) I'm struggling in DPS of course not in monocible, but in "classic" Archer.

I explain, for example, I play a guardian archer "cool" mixing multi-target and monocible without worries, on the other hand, when I want to try the same thing on a NB, I never get the same result, I see the physical spells of the guardian, this last right has 2 spells for a damage bonus of 8% while the NB has none, I guess the problem comes from there.

Sometimes I have the impression that all the other classes are comfortable archering mainly the guardian and wizard (in my opinion), but the NB is by miracle.

Sometimes it also happens that I spend an eternity killed an opponent with my nb while another class I wouldn't have as much difficulty.

Note that I try with the same race (Nordic), stone of mundus (warrior) on my keeper. I would like to change race for more optimization, but I'm still too attached to this one.

    In this case, I think that "Summond Shade" should be reviewed, for me, this last one should be the same thing as the sorcerer "Bound Armor" and in the same context, that is to say, an evolution in magic and one in stam whose stam evolution would precisely allow to have the 8% of damages like many other classes, in this sense, the fart would be much more interesting than its current state.

    Because frankly, for a class like Nightblade, there are still too many spells for magic!

    Just go with 2x proc sets that work at range and call it a day.

    Venomous Smite and Sheer Venom for example can both be triggered from range and are incredibly strong. You have tons of control between the stun/knockback on bow and the root on bow. Throw in a ranged proc helm like stormfist for even more range damage.

    As mentioned above, Nightblade is incredibly potent in any decent gank or archer setup right now.

    If you're unwilling to change your build, @Khatou, then discussion in this thread will end quickly.

    If you adjust it to be a ganker you can do this with a bow in pvp.

    i've seen ps4 nightblade does tremendous damage with snipe while wearing proc sets
    meanwhile i was trying to use nma + spriggan to boost snipe damage and wasnt even close to that damage

    ps4 looks like another planet, because other PC nightblade movies do the same damage as ps4 ones only with frenzy+titanborn setup. Are ps4 guys rarely gear for survivability or including only squishy targets in their videos ?

    I've been in both platforms, they usually target squishy/"low" cp players, just like anyone else.
    What they don't include in their videos is when they run like hell spamming cloak because their target knows how to react, and it gets better when you have 634 detect pots.

    Talking about people who run like hell... Is Warbow still playing in PC EU? 😂

    I think he's on a break, somewhere on a keep wall or resource tower in sneak ;)
    I actually had great respect for him. He did his thing and I never saw him complain (although I'm sure he did).
    The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

    Idk, it was so weird to see a grand overlord playing like that.
    I remember him entering in panic mode every time i used the old Piercing Mark on him, didn't matter if it was a 1v1 or even him having other EP around.

    Good times 😂

    Just drop the snipe and play with venom arrow (morph that interrupt is really nice) and magnum shot + bow ult with front bar as regular stamblade. You can put serious pressure and than go bow ult and 2he to secure kill.
    As bowblade you have to be quick and evasive. Standing still and spamming snipes is not the way to go.
    You can stay on bow bar till you get your merciles proc up and put some pressure and than bow ult, magnum shot, merciless and start executing

    I am still looking at this sentence and not really understanding it.
    Tenesi Faryon of Telvanni - Dunmer Sorceress who deliberately sought sacrifice into Cold Harbor to rescue her beloved.
    Hisa Ni Caemaire - Altmer Sorceress, member of the Order Draconis and Adept of the House of Dibella.
    Broken Branch Toothmaul - goblin (for my goblin characters, I use either orsimer or bosmer templates) Templar, member of the Order Draconis and persistently unskilled pickpocket
    Mol gro Durga - Orsimer Socerer/Battlemage who died the first time when the Nibenay Valley chapterhouse of the Order Draconis was destroyed, then went back to Cold Harbor to rescue his second/partner who was still captive. He overestimated his resistance to the hopelessness of Oblivion, about to give up, and looked up to see the golden glow of atherius surrounding a beautiful young woman who extended her hand to him and said "I can help you". He carried Fianna Kingsley out of Cold Harbor on his shoulder. He carried Alvard Stower under one arm. He also irritated the Prophet who had intended the portal for only Mol and Lyris.
    ***
    Order Draconis - well c'mon there has to be some explanation for all those dragon tattoos.
    House of Dibella - If you have ever seen or read "Memoirs of a Geisha" that's just the beginning...
    Nibenay Valley Chapterhouse - Where now stands only desolate ground and a dolmen there once was a thriving community supporting one of the major chapterhouses of the Order Draconis
