    You know those crystal fragments and streak things?

    Shield stacking too.

    I think we need to get them balanced, amirite?

    Jesus beam may be annoying but I feel bad for the DK and Templars...jingling their hobo cups on the curb begging for help and change.

    This is annoying! nightblades only have cloak they have to be skilled players to even kill another player, when a magika nightblade comes up against a DK they just spam talons and we cant do anything about it but die! sorcs just shield then frag us till we die and templars are the most complete chars on the game its silly to just keep nerfing why dont people just master there char learn how to counter other chars and deal with it.

    They have to be skilled players to kill another player? Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back. I've seen some great NB, but it doesnt take as much skill as you claim to ambush, fear and then cloak away to repeat the process. Thats no different from sorcs shield stacking and fraging.

    no its not any different thats what im saying each character has its own style and way of counteracting other players there isnt any need to nerf anything in my opinion.

    You're kidding right? Right? Nerf the ability that still doesn't even work correctly in the first place. So now nbs have no heals and now are nerfing the only thing helping nightblades stay alive? Lmao so templars heal like crazy, dks have an insta full health ability and sorcs have crazy ass shields they can pop in a second but you're going to take away the only way nightblades dont die in two seconds hmmm ok. If they do this in done with this game. What a joke.

    Harness magicka, healing ward, immovable brute, all defensive abilities. Restoration staff has healing options, and just last night in IC I saw an amazing NB who kept cloaking and using a dwarven sphere to heal, essentially giving him tons of resources to work with, and was good enough to fend off most of the 3-4+ people who tried to kill him. So you can't tell me you don't have other options. Cloak was a HUGE part of his defensive strategy but if it was nerfed even a little bit, like removing magicka regen or increased cost, it wouldn't have effected the build all that much. (which is how it should be, you shouldn't base SOOO much of your build off 1 move)

    You can go and farm dungeons a million times to get the engine guardian set too. It isn't a set specific to NBs.

    Contra:
    Cloak is very fragile: Templars can reveal stealthed NB, NB can reveal them too with Piercing Mark, Sorcs have Mines/Streak to counter the Cloak, Revealing Flare and Caltrops from the Alliance War skill lines, Radiant Magelight from Mages Guild, any AoE attack can reveal NB too,...

    Templar's have a reveal hidden Ninja skill?

    Luminous Shards (Aedric Spear)

    You don't wanna know how many Templars got me in IC with that
    Almost made me wanna make a "nerf this skill-thread" xD
    (nah, I'm bigger than that ;) )

    Ah I getcha , though id rather be ganked than be a shard spammer

    I am very happy to see nightblades getting nerfed and I am great at the game.
    The only class that can take me out is a nightblade and they are in many players opinion the go to character for players that cannot really play the game....a cheat character so to speak.
    Good riddance to them.

    @Umad_BrO
    Reported for being terrible. You just admitted to wanting them nerfed because they can kill you

    Cool, I repeat, I want them nerfed because they can kill me.
    What's the matter? Did somebody steal your sweet roll?

    Restore detection potion and good, topic closed.
    Cloak became so overpowered with the nerf of this potion. Drink a potion that does nothing but revealing things within 20 meters for 14 seconds, but has a normal 40 seconds+ cooldown. This is not justified.
    This potion was fine as it was.

    Leave cloak, so all the Nightblades can stop QQing. Restore detection potions,so non Nightblades don't have a right to QQ anymore. Otherwise nerf cloak.

    To the people screaming you can't perma cloak...

    You don't need to he in cloak 24/7, in deed, most NB only use cloak in combat, not to run but to attack.

    You spam you're attacks, cloak to counter any targets, Dots, etc and to boost the next attack, which comes in a matter of seconds.

    Typically a Vet 16 stam NB will only cloak a few times (2 or 3) before their opponent is dead.

    Stop acting like you use cloak to sneak around or are in it for any true amount of time.

    In example, it's a way of protecting yourself while you cast WB.
    Ieave cloak alone

    What det pots are you using? Does nothing but reveals hidden enemies?

    Mine does that + gives me a bit of magicka + gives me major sorcery (spelldmg).
