The nightblade should be the "burden" of the tanks!

I find that the tanks still have this ability to be too powerful and resistant in pvp, some even manage to be almost impossible to kill or even cause them damage (even for a nightblade), this is just abnormal in pvp.

I think the NB would deserve a "passive" allowing to weaken the resistance much more and an aggressive passive against the tank shields, than all the other classes, because after all, isn't the assassin's goal supposed to be a quick death for their opponent? I'm not saying that he should kill a tank as he can kill a dps player, but he should be more aggressive against this kind of role!

    With a proper Nightblade build you should be able to be aggressive already, @Khatou, while retaining the early surprise with some stealth.

    Have you reviewed your build lately?


    Remember that most tanks can't kill anything ... so getting involved toe-to-toe after the initial surprise will often end in a stalemate.

    As a nightblade player, i think they should just change tanks, and not just nightblade x tank.

    Playing an outright tank well is not that easy. Tank builds that have a lot of health often cannot heal to full quickly. Their weakness is pressure builds, builds that deliver high sustained DPS. If you want to be an anti-tank build, you might start there. I'm not saying you'll kill every tank, but if you were previously running a burst build, then you'll kill some you couldn't kill before.

    Nightblade is just a burden.
