Nightblade OP?

Just rolled my first character and got to level 23, so far I've noticed that being a siphoning Nightblade with a bow is utterly brilliant when it comes to DPS. The initial burst is outstanding! dropped some bosses down to 30% health before they even got a chance of coming near me. Is it just my rotation or are other people seeing the same amazing bursts of damage?

    Done right Nightblade is pretty powerful. And hitting a target from sneak with a hard shot really chips that health away.

    Nightblade: Amazing burst DPS.
    Nightblade: Bad group synergy.

    Stealth can be quite nice, but there are a number of quests where mobs are spawned aggressive to you, so you don't get the chance to use your sneak attack. That was the only downside I found when playing one.

    Teleport from sneak. They never know what hit them.

    No way this class is OP, it is just dps based class, but it is fairly balanced.

    Getting boss to 30% before he reaches you? it depends on what lvl you are and that boss, i bet its some mini bots that is much lower level then you.

    In beta I was torn between Night blade and Dragon Knight.

    The reason I chose DK was because I dont like how stealth works in ESO at the moment..its...very limited. You only have 1 opener and the stealth sight cone to me is too wide.

    Oh ...and the DK skills are friggin awsome and I love the group utillities and synergies and versatillities in the builds far more than you can do with a Nightblade.

    If you're in doubt about what to make ....have fun with a DK :)

    I was level 19 when i was dropping the Glademist quest bosses. They're higher level by a lot haha.

    Nightblade is my favorite class right now. It's so fun to play... Overpowered? I'll let them decide on balance.
