    Bye Bye nightblade class...

    not all NBs have to be snipers that sit in the back of the map.

    do what I and many other NBs do:D get out a gigantic greatsword or two 1H weapons, load up on mass hysteria, and charge into glorious battle!!! show the annoying talon spamming DKs and the BE spamming Sorcerers and the blazing shield spamming templars that NBs are not weaklings!

    Far from it. With reflective scales nerfed nbs will be the best class and the only one that hasn't seen any major nerfs.

    Some of the new champion points will make it a lot harder to get knocked off a horse. Some of the points will make it so that you will not consume horse stamina while out of combat, and others will make it harder to knock you off. That will mean no more instant knock down for fully sprinted horses, as a fully sprinted horse will have full stamina if out of combat.

    This might make it very resource consuming to dismount a foe. Other games tied instant horse dismounts to skills. I wonder if we will be getting the same.

    Giving DKs an avenue to reflect attacks that aren't even directed at them is one of the worst decisions I've ever seen in a video game in my entire life.

    Everything else is A+ stuff.

    This may make anti Calvary caltrops somewhat of a viable morph

    As a khajiit player with medium armor, this is an unfortunate new thing I'll have to look out for. But people have been using caltrops and other AoE for similar purposes, leading me to suppose this option is just meant to be a a magicka-based alternative.

    I don't think it will break nightblades as a class, this seems like more of a zerg-buster tool as well actually. If it costs a lot of magicka, it may be limited to looking for groups near keeps for defensive purposes.

    Seems like they're doing everything they can to keep to stop zergs and trains and encourage nuanced, complex engagements.

    Nice skills and all but way too little too late to stop the mass exodus (which has already happened) from this game.

    Just curious if your trolling before you quit or what? Every thread you post in seems to be a qq about to little to late or ZoS this or that... why not stop posting and just quit?

    The game has its issues and definately needs work. I understand being upset about a few things but if your that upset and unhappy with every mechanic of the game that you feel the need to qq in every thread over it you do have the choice to unsub.
