Upgrade to v16 gear and use spell dmg glyphs.

looks like you do a lot more than me and my stamina dragonknight

But seriously v16 wpn/spell dmg glyphs add 170 dmg each, so 3x is about 510 dmg without and spell dmg buff's from passives or entropy

As a magicka nightblade one can have very high damage output by using only class skills (mainly funnel crippling impale and sap) and mages guild skills; Im using a resto nirnhoned or precise staff on single target bar because i like the way one can weave attacks with it and a 2 hand sword on aoe bar for extra spelldamage but I dont use any of the appropriate weapon skills...

make sure u use the nb magicka bonus passive on both bars and as much as possible mages guild magicka bonuses

A magicka NB is my biggest PITA in PvP right now. Combined with pretty good DPS and the ability to Cloak for Days they usually win. Even if I fend them off 3-4x in a row they can keep escaping with Cloak and come back while my rss (stamina) is low and kill me. I'm not complaining, just saying that I find them to be the "best" at solo PvP right now and many would agree with me.

Without a doubt magicka NB is one of the best right now in PvP. It seems as if you have the same stats as I do on my NB. From my experience, magicka NB has good damage. It could be an issue of CP points, skills on your bar, or even your skill.

The only thing that is currently doing damage in pvp is wrecking blow

Has damage, shield stacking, and healing all been reduced by 50% ?
I'm sure it has, but seen a few people saying damage was reduced by 30% and not 50 ?

LOL No.

Camo hunter out of stealth is pure murder.
Focus Aim is brutal.
Sneak Attack is also deadly.

Nice. Just curious. Is that 3.1k spell damage buffed or unbuffed. What is your magicka regen? What race?

The Battle Spirit buff reduces this now by 50%, but before it was at 20-30%. So it's reduced by 50%, and the reduction was increase by up to 30 percentage points

This is why it's so tough for a VR6, like myself. Buffed and only 23k Magicka and 1000 Spell damage.

There are many ways to stop us magicka NB's, I am one, and yes i can often get away, but when people actually use the right skills that are available, i will die. ie. Razor Caltrops, detection potions, magelight. etc.

Snipe tickles these days on me with full medium armor and some impentreble.

Camo hunter I agree is a pain specially as a vampire. Helps two-three shot me since I'm bosmer using drinks with 18k health.

WB does way more damage out of sneak than snipe.
