They need to be nerfed in a damage sense there are tanky NBs they just dont take any damage while doing insane damage thats just crap.

    I just came from PS4 EU Cyrodil and I just watched how sea of shield-stackers go through anything, more than anything this game needs alot more dmg, instead of reducing it. If NBs are gonna get nerf, Im going to join the shield-stacker Battalion with my Dominion Sorc. Shield-stacker zerg needs to be addressed soon.

    So too much passivity doesnt kill games? Nothing gets killed.

    Anyway, Im saying it, if NB gets nerfed, I take my Dominion Sorc and join the undefeatable shield-stacker zerg. Whats right now happening on PS4 EU.

    Run more impen. No joke, it actually helps. Truth be told, surprise attack still hits hard af, and it's insta cast so they can spam it all day long. Their charge ability grants empower (lol).
    The tanky Nightblades you speak of probably animation cancel light attacks, SA, shield bash, which does a bucket load of damage.
    Just make sure you've always got major fracture on your bar and something to cancel their stealth. Because they don't really have any shields, major defile is good. You lessen their healing, keep them out of stealth and they'll have no where to run.

    i tried all of the above they just dont die and doing tons of damage. I use detect pots to break their stealth but its not the point. They kill me 1v1 i tried everything no chance.

    get new sets, get your own playstyle, dont copy youtube kids.
    I know how to make very tanky nbs and you can make every class same tanky.
    Sorc can even be more tanky and more dps, so stop calling for a nb nerf [snip]. You can make dps tanks with every class [snip]

    NBS have no heals , survivability and are soon to lose their escape with the new patch. I am a Stan blade and if I don't kill you in 5 seconds then I am dead because a few hits and we are dead. Super squishy with good damage. L2P against them any you will do much better in a 1v1

    get new sets, get your own playstyle, dont copy youtube kids.
    I know how to make very tanky nbs and you can make every class same tanky.
    Sorc can even be more tanky and more dps, so stop calling for a nb nerf you noob. You can make dps tanks with every class so shut up

    You l2p noob

    other classes can be tanky but they cant burst like a NB learn your class.

    i dont need to learn to play, cos i can figth as nb and with other classes. and you can make everythign tanky. 22k physical resistance with 2,7k damage and more than 2k regen? easy.
    If YOU cant do it, its your problem, and not a case of nerfing.

    In fact dks and sorcs can even be tanky easier because they get longer armor buffs than nb.

    YOU are the one calling for a nerf cos you obvious lack for skill.
    people like YOU are the reason every class got nerfed except for sorc. and sorc will be next cos nothing is left.

    clearly a L2P issue, cloak is easy countered, and if you make your build too squishy its not our problem but yours

    wow noobs crying about NB when Shield stacking god tier tank damage combos is going on. NB takes skill unlike sorc, and NB is getting nerfed because sorcs need even more easy mode.

    I can't wait until shield get a cast time.

    Dude, chill. He didn't even ask for nerfs. Probably just ran into his first tanky NB build. It's pretty sad when people can't even come on the forums to ask for help without getting "L2P" shoved in their face. You're what's wrong with this community.

    Don't worry bro, NB cloak is getting nerfed next patch. I do however want to say that NB's can only use heals that are available to everyone. Cloak is pretty much the only NB defensive ability.

    I think this thread would be a little more constructive if you posted your build, OP.

    And, EVERY glass cannon in EVERY game is squishy.
    This game's sorcs are the only exceptions, probably.

    OP, maybe edit your post to read something more like "How do I counter tanky Nightblades with high DPS". Ie: remove the nerf thing. You'll probably get less hate that way, and this could actually be an informative discussion.

    As @Didaco suggests, showing your build would be helpful, too, so we know what we're working with.

    Was the guy an Emp by any chance? Do you run any impen gear? Just asking since the emp I ran into on bwb was a tanky nb with 100k health. No sustain or anything else, just a massive amount of health. I usually have a templar with two heavy impen and radiant magelight going. Got jumped by a different nb who saw his ambush fizzled by that and ran away >:)
