This is a question for all my ^^^^ how much health/Stam do you vet 14s have in pvp. I'm vet 8 but I'm trying to figure things out in terms of my gear/stats. I feel as if I have very high magicka but low health Stam.

    If you're a vampire 22k if you're human 20k is the standerd for health in pvp out side pvp will be lower make sure to make it 20k in pvp not pve or you will have more then you need

    It is low, but he has snipe build. If he is getting hit, he's doing it wrong.

    I have mg and st nb, both around 18k HP. I do not get one shot unless distracted. I try to play so i will have the opportunity to strike first. as a magical nightblade you can be in stealth as long as you want to, so the enemy does not have the chance to one shot kill you. You will need some protection from your gear, because light armor players are very vulnerable.

    Consider that in IC update you Will take less dmg so you will probably have less reason to stack health.
    This work for my builds you might play differently.

    Sorry to kind of hijack the thread, but I'm curious as to how everyone feels magicka nightblades will be after the upcoming patch? Will they be better than stamina builds after the patch or still under par?

    I feel like the title does'nt match what the question is but whatever.

    As stated for PvP you want about 20k HP but for PvE you should'nt need more than 18k HP. As for stamina, you want as much as you can get while still maintaining that HP threshold.

    As for the Magicka vs. Stamina question i can only give my opinion but i see Stamina more or less staying the same and Magicka comming back in a big way!

    Your both wrong. I don't use Snipe. However i can't stay in a prolonged fight for long. I use Rally and Clouding Swarm if im ever in trouble.

    I usually start with my Bow, Heavy Att into Poison Injection. Ambush, SoulHarvest , Mass Hysteria, Surprise Att. I have a master bow so this work's very well.

    It is true though, if your getting hit as a nightblade your doing it wrong.

    I think that was once proposed as the Dark Brotherhoods motto but "We Know" won out in a close vote. I missed that union meeting though. Lucien Lachance had me off on a mission to kill this guy Rufio at some bad luck inn or another. Long story short, ended up getting really messed up with some bad skooma with Rufio and he passed out and never woke up. I did. Thus began my illustrious service for the Night Mother.

    I agree, nightblade's counter nightblade's pretty hard. Camo hunter snipe's from stealth is a insane combo.

    I don't fight only bad player's though. Nightblade's just play dirty.

    I've got 16.8 hp. Go ahead and mark me. If it's just you and me, I'm not worried. If you have a friend with you, or it's a high threat environment without a lot of friendly support, then I've probably got eff purge on my bar or I will go hide behind a tree. Mark is a PITA though.

    The point is that you can roll with a low hp build with the motto "Don't Get Hit." You need to play it right, develop some solid escape and evasion techniques and rely on your spidey senses. It's also fun and challenging.

    I'm betting your regen is about 700 though?

    I'd love to see how you got the 2200 spell damage with a destro and still kept the stats? Whenever I go destro instead of dual wield I drop about 300 spell damage points.

    Is the health without the emperor alliance bonus?

    Can't say much about PvP, but in PvE with purple V10 buff food:

    20k/21k health
    34k/35k magicka (bar1/bar2)
    14k stamina
    2k/2,2k spelldamage (bar1 destro staff / bar2 dualwield - without any support or self buffs yet)

    I could get somewhat more spell damage by defragmenting my sets even more into 2-set-bonuses, but I decided to get a good compromise out of spell damage / magicka / magicka reg.

    My imperial is far from being the perfect race to play a magicka NB, but I experienced too late that stamina isn't my favorite playstyle and I bought the Imperial Edition and wanted to be special, but hey, it still works.

    Whenever I am finished to level a V14 (V16) of every class (see signature) and I will have the motivation to level another one, I may switch my imperial NB to a stamina DD or tank build and might level a Breton magicka DD / healer NB for min/maxing.

    I play all my chars as magicka builds right now, stamina builds aren't tempting me and til now they aren't my favorite play style in spite of delivering more damage.

    That's a gank build. If he is rarely engaged directly HP doesn't matter. For him it's all about from stealth dps. He's doing it right from my perspective.
