    Anyway for the sake of being constructive, let us demonstrate the full inner works of mage light to the OP :

    NB stealthed + enemy player mage light = NB not stealthed.

    Truly groundbreaking stuff.

    IF you bothered to read the posts you would see that mage light DOES NOT detect NB stealth until they are 1-3m away from you or less. Its not working like its supposed to. btw good job on being rude and insulting, your intelligent words speak of your character. which I am sure is truly ground breaking stuff to you.

    Stop talking out your posterior. You clearly do not know how the class skills for NB work if you actually believe we can only be detected if youre right on top of us.

    I spend 90 percent or more of my time trying to stay FAR AWAY from magelight users, because they will detect me at 9 meters or less. (thats a bosmer in full medium armor btw, only another bosmer or khajiit can get that close safely, any other race its 12 meters)

    If no magelight is used, I can get to about 3-4 meters safely, within my surprise attack range, but thats still dangerous as I could get passived right before I attack, spoiling my surprise damage bonus. (which is a game breaker for a gank, if that suprise doesnt land and crit, I am probably going to die before I can finish you off)

    This is from a vet12 nightblade thats been playing this game since november in beta.

    It might seem like we are undetectable but did it ever occur to you we DONT SIT STILL WHILE YOU LOOK FOR US?

    you have no idea what your talking about. you have never been looking through a magelight users eyes because if you did and spent the 1 minute it takes to realize it does not work unless NB is right next to you. so please stop posting meaningless rants that have no base in reality and are just your pompous ego trolling up trash.

    As a magelight using Nightblade, I have been on both sides of this issue.

    The range that magelight reveals invisible Nightblades is around 7-10m in my experiences.

    Which just makes the NB situation all the more sad - one of the main things we're supposed to be the most-skilled at can be countered with a potion.

    if someone drinks that potion then it is impossible for the NB to vanish. I think many NB's who actually reporting that their Dark Cloak is broken have encountered a player which drank that potion of detection.

    I am going to make it my lifes project to find OP in PvP somewhere and gank him now, knowing he is completely inept at stealth detection.

    Also, just lol. I have a vr7 dk, a vr4 templar, and a lowbie sorc I pvp with, all of which have and use magelight.

    I gave you the perspective of a nightblade to show you how much of a noob you are about it.

    I detect people just fine with my magelights, bonus points for me because I know where a nightblade is most likely to hide, since I just go where I would have gone to hide from the magelight user.

    I've noticed that magelight doesnt reveal a crap after last patch. And it doesnt reveal some1 using Shadow Disguise for sure
  • sevcik.miroslaveb17_ESO
    What I don't like is general poorly working crouch stealth. I meang a group of 10 + people "hiding" on open plain on sunshine... Seriously? Did they hide beneth the earth or something? I just wonder how could I now see a bunch of guys crouching on football playground? General stealth is OP in comparation to original elder scrolls. NB stealth is working properly. That is invisibility and costs magicka. And as many stated it sometimes does not even work in PvP.

    General sneaking should work only if you really sneak behind someone. If he is looking at you from 10m you should be visible imho.

    I still feel DK to be OP, sorc never felt OP to me.
    NBs are fine and templars I don't know. They seem to be fine as well.

    You're incorrect.

    The NB stealth is invisibility. It costs mana and is undetectable while it lasts.

    The crouching stealth is available to every class. It's detectable with magelight - 12 meters.

    I have both a sorcerer and a nightblade. I find the sorc more fun than the nightblade. I basically get killed all the time in pvp on my NB. So I guess I suck.

    once again if you bothered to read the post you would know that.

This games selling point was the fact you can be anything with any character not op DAMAGE, debuff and stealth assassin with NB only.

This games selling point was the fact you can be anything with any character not op DAMAGE, debuff and stealth assassin with NB only.

    Could define precisely what you mean by "nb stealth"?

    Do you mean:

    1. "the usual stealth that every character has by pressing [ctrl]"
    2. "the usual stealth that every character has by pressing [ctrl], but only when Nightblades use it"
    3. or "the invisibility from shadow cloak that Nightblades have, but that costs magicka to use"

    If you mean 3, then it must be a bug. You shouldn't see NBs at all when they use shadow cloak.

    That's the whole point of being invisible for 2.5 seconds, so you can't see them. Also, it costs magicka and halts their magicka regen.

    If you're upset about that, then you better make a pretty good case why it should change. That's one of the defining abilities of the class and is working as intended.

    Anyways, I tried to play the ultimate hiding NB. Didn't work. I basically die all the time in pvp, regardless of invisibility. Also, there's a perfect way to circumvent it - or, at least there was a while ago. Just hard target them. Sure, they will disappear from your screen, but your hard target box will move around with their location. It really sucks playing an NB with that bug.

    I'm not sure you've tested Magelight. As a Magicka build Nightblade I use both Shadowy Disguise and Magelight.

    I know first hand, from both sides of the issue, that Magelight reveals Cloaked Nightblades.

    When a Nightblade uses cloak in range of my Magelight, they turn translucent black instead of going invisible; and I am able to see them for the full duration.

    As stated above, Magelight reveals Nightblades in Cloak.
    I don't think it is a bug, since the description for Magelight says it does so.

    If you mean 3, then it must be a bug. You shouldn't see NBs at all when they use shadow cloak.
    ...

    As stated above, Magelight reveals Nightblades in Cloak.
    I don't think it is a bug, since the description for Magelight says it does so.

    Wow, thanks, didn't know!

    By "bug" I mean, if the OP is correct and his magelight only reveals cloaked NBs w/in 3 meters, he's getting a bug.

    I've noticed that magelight doesnt reveal a crap after last patch. And it doesnt reveal some1 using Shadow Disguise for sure

    This was my experience as well and I noticed right after the patch. I also noticed the hollow stealth detection circles with no players in them after the patch.

    It would be good to hear from a dev as to whether or not some changes were made to magelight.

    I think OP might be confusing shadow cloak with ambush strike. I mean, it's the only way to get the jump on someone with magelight.

    Shadow cloak is not immune to magelight or detection potions, and EVEN if it was, it wouldn't be a big deal. But it isn't, so maybe Beedles should actually test what he professes as facts.

    Or maybe everyone's game is bugged, except Beedles' game who's working as intended. Sadly I seriously doubt that.

    What I fail to understand is why the QQ train doesnt just play GW2? GW2 is designed so every bad player will have multiple crutches to lean on and never have to worry about having to improve their play, positioning, learn counters, heck you do not even need to learn your class there. The game is so casual friendly that my cat plays for me.

    It is free and it seems like the game most of you would love. Why are you here destroying yet another game with your lazy and clueless play style?

    post all the mumbo jumbo you want it takes 1 minute in pvp to see a NB use this skill and its a nb SKILL 1-2sec in and out of and can endlessly recast

    Endlessly? Please do not say something that you know is incorrect - the skill costs magicka, which means that a NB can only cast it as long as he/she has enough magicka. Out of magicka = no casting stealth skill.

    I did not know this until the pts notes myself but I think he may be on to something.

    Has anyone heard from ZOS as to whether mage light is still WAI?

    If you get marked by a nightblade, start blocking :open_mouth: I admit, first time I got the mark, I didn't know better and he got me, but I went back to his ganking ass and got my revenge.

    I'm honestly more worried about the nightblades running in "mage" mode.

    Try out NB and see how OP stealth is. All little crap puts you out, or hindering you to cloak, try out NB and see how you do vs other classes without hiding or going stealth. Dont talk crap if you dont know how to counter the weakest class. Try out sorc and see how OP their fragments can be. much more damage than NB from stealth. Templar heals out any NB, DK can kill 6 ppl and survive for 5 min a 10+ grp. And you say NB is OP.... go back to pve i think.

    I think NB are just about right in terms of abilities. When it comes to the many OP issues in ESO, the NB is not even on my radar.

    My DK outfitted in heavy armor with sword and board loves to hunt NBs in PvP! They are hardly overpowered. They think they are so sneaky until I jump on them cause I'm running mage light!

    That's all fine and dandy...but are you going to keep blocking for the full 60 Seconds that the Debuff lasts? For me that's the stupid part. Why should a Debuff (that lets the NB see you while Stealthed) last for a full Minute. This debuff should be 20s max (if that).

    So you know, the mark also reduces their armor by 75% vs you. All you have to do is block that 1st sneak attack attempt then fight back.
