I see many NB in game while I'm runing around, like the 40% and we have 4 classes in the game, sorcerers maybe like a 5% or 10% xD (this are not official stadistics, are more or less what I see while I play). Then I come to the forums and I just read the same opinions, over and over again, from the most part of the people: DK are broken, need buff, need love and NB are OP, etc.

Can someone explain me from where comes this idea and what happened? I play a NB and I don't like play any OP class, I always liked to play weaks one. I like the challenge and swim against the tide.

I was not an active player the lasts months, so I'm lost, I remembered the situation was the opposite, DKs were OP, the people were all crying like little childs and now is like be a DK is the most sad thing in the world.

    I haven't been very active for the last few months either and haven't experienced being OP as a nightblade. I think one of the factors is that cloak is finally working as it should and some players simply can't handle it. Others seem to know how to negate cloak properly. That's what I've gotten from the discussion anyhow.

    Op nb is later on where nb can enter combat with advantage (cloak, deal massive massive burst damage, have infinite, and then cloak and run away if it doesn't go to plan.

    Magicka nb heals itself with the major dps skills.

    Most geared nbs can kill a light or medium geared player in just a few seconds.

    But

    Immovable and detect pots can make the burst nbs existence brief.

    Dragonknight isn't even as weak as people claim.
    They do so, because Magicka DKs aren't as strong as they used to be. Stamina DKs however are extremely strong.
    Dk is 50% bad, just like Sorcerer is 50% bad because Stamina Sorcerer doesn't work well.

    Both classes have a rather huge imbalance between their stamina and Magicka gameplay.
    Templars and especially Nightblades are almost equally in strenght with both specs.
    I myself am perfectly fine with Sorcerer (a mage) being better for Magicka than with Stamina.
    But the Dragonknights big thing is supposed to be fire and all this flame magic stuff. But then again, it's a knight :)

    When going around everywhere, it seems I see a split of 40/40/10/10 for NB's, Sorcs, DK's and Templars respectively. Sorcs are a lot more noticeable out of combat in PvE though because pets :tongue:

    You know it's funny... People complain about DKs not up to snuff now but last I was in IC I saw a pretty capable DK and he was only VR6!

    Yea I know quite a few who leveled a NB for the IC patch, or just started playing them again. For pvp, it's not like launch DK, but NB is very clearly the best class right now. Both magicka and stamina.

    In my guild we had a talented NB builder and player. When he took a screeny of his char sheet and talked about how much he likes playing the char, many started rolling NBs.

    Then similar happened when a talented DK showed up, sharing his excitement and joy in PvP playing a DK, others watching him battling in the middle of enemy players. A new wave of little DKs showed up.

    It comes and goes. Everyone wants to be a star. :)

    People dont need to "reroll" they just have multipe characters.


    If KB is precieved as being stronger today, then thats what will be played more.


    That said, the KB kill quest in Cryodill is generally as fast to complete as the kill enemy players.....

    Also haven't been active in months, but most of my (now dormant) characters are Nightblades. Just like them better, but then I'm a retired Intelligence guy - so they better fit me.
