Icereach PC NA (Mulaamnir/Kyne/BWB NA PC - Final)

I have never understood emps pushing for scrolls during the day. I think I've been emp six or seven times now and I've never helped run a scroll. I abdicated my last emp and went to bed when AD started pushing for a DC scroll. It's just not exciting and discourages other alliances from playing. I'm not here to just twiddle my thumbs and dominating the map forces you to do a lot of that.

I'm a scrub, after what I have been through, I have no feeling for the enemy.

Gederic · December 2016

I'm confused. Do all the other EP immediately run away at the sight of any danger? It would appear so.... Like what did you do to these people?!?! *3 AD Approach* "Oh god there's 10 of us and 3 of them! RUN!"

W0lf_z13 · December 2016

lol @Gederic ... i noticed alot of people run now a days even if they have more numbers

I have a name for EP, I call them "Free AP". I think they think "ball grouping" is to get in a ball and wait for players to kill them. If someone says, "20+ EP" at Ales farm, I lick my lips and start runing towards Ales. ( Easy killing )

On they other hand, if I see 10 AD in wedding dresses I think "Oh Crap" better get everyone here. If you ever want to scare EP/DC just put on a wedding dress and then chase them down.

Emily, lets talk about the Nikel incident yesterday. You had all the time in the world to buff up and get ready to take me down. I went back and watched the clip a few times. It didnt look like you had any buffs going and no heals. What gives? I thought for sure that was going to be it. The day you got me. : ))

mmm I want to see the video, I like seeing me in battles

Even if i get beat down.

I'm not that good of a fighter, not sure why. My stam NB is around level 46 and I feel soo weak at times. I rely on cloak to get away but I run out of mag most times before for I can escape. I think one problem I have is, I still need to get my skyshards.

If you were talking about yesterday. I don't think I really got you. You killed me, and I came back out and maybe got 1 hit in but someone else did the damage.

When i seen you laying there and not rezzing, I knew someone was hiding

Adenoma · December 2016

I find the wedding dress draws people to you when you're solo.

Ya the other guy got the killing blow on me. I have never been very good with stam builds in general. I find them boring I guess. I have quite a few clips of us fighting over the past year or so. Never really intended to do anything with them. I like to go back and watch my fights to see what kind of stupid I did. hah

Do you use Momentum? I think thats what its called. The 2H ability that heals. Blur/Double take is another one I see a lot of NB use. Well, if not running shuffle. You need more glowy stuff on. Not enough glowy.

Stam nb isn't in the best spot right now, unless you're a viper gank build in vet. The problem most have is that they are incredibly squish and cannot sustain. If you don't kill a target with your burst you aren't going to be able to stand and fight. This isn't to say this is true of all stam nb's just a trend I've noticed. Sad because stam nb used to be my favourite class, but I'm not one for viper ganks, blegh!

I thought about putting Momentum on my bar, but I have a hard time giving up the skills on my bar now. I know I should give up Rapid Manuver but I like using it.

2H

Vigor
Piercing Mark
Shuffle
Dizzying Swing
Critical Rush

Bow

cloak ( Shadowy Disguise )
Poison Injection
Aspect of Terror
scatter shot
Rapid Manuver

Gederic · December 2016

Momentum morphed into rally is the best stam heal in the game, plus major brutality. Honestly I've never seen the point in mark unless you're trying to keep another stealthing nightblade out of stealth. All it does is say "Hey I'm about to gank you... oh wait now you know I'm here."

I love marking targets, yes it does let them know I am there but it also reduces their physical resistance. Usually when I mark a target it says something like "Ooops you got tagged and now you will die".

Here is an example, I was going to nik yesterday, and I heard a NB gank someone. I stopped, he disappeared, and I waited. He came out of stealth to attack someone, I marked him and 10 DC squashed him.

I guess i use it more of a team skill.

Just_call_me_Cola · December 2016

So I picked up a scroll AD dropped in a field and walked it to roe and dropped it off there. And got sooooo much hate for it. And received more hate the next day. Aren't scrolls on ring keeps are more defended then gate keeps...

Adenoma · December 2016

I prefer them in emp keeps. Makes emp more fun and it prevents the other alliances from pushing you to the gates while you hold down the emp keeps.

Stridig · December 2016

Agreed. You did the right thing Cola.

I would definitely recommend finding a way to slot Rally (morph of Momentum) on your 2H bar. Rally+Vigor is nearly essential for stam builds to reliably heal. Plus based on these skills you have nothing that grants you the Major Brutality buff, which means you're basically missing out on an easy 20% extra damage and healing. You could probably get rid of Scatter Shot for it, since the CC is pretty redundant with Aspect of Terror. You may also want to consider using Grim Focus, morphed to Relentless Focus, which will give you 8% additional damage and 10% additional stam regen. Siphoning Strikes, morphed to Siphoning Attacks, is another really good buff if you find that you are struggling to manage your resources, so long as you are always weaving light attacks.

Stridig · December 2016

I have about had it with these load screens and random crashes. Making me lose interest real fast. These last couple weeks have been the worst I have experienced since launch.

That would have been me with gankalicious NB that killed you Sir. You're welcome.

I think you are right about scatter shot, but recently I began to love that skills. I like knocking them back and then knocking back again.. it is kind of funny.

I was playing around with using a bow light attack from stealth and then using Incapacitating Strike, it seems to do a lot of damage and almost 1 shot npcs. But every time I try to use it in combat I always get caught and have to retreat.

I think my next character 'Emily is nice' is going to be hated

It is a mag nb and I'm gong to concentrate on leveling my destruction staff. Hopefully I can level the staff to 50 before I leave BwB. Hello, eye of the storm and VD

DeadlyRecluse · December 2016

Worst loadscreens in a while yesterday, anyone else? Was very rare to get through a port without losing a groupmember to loadscreen gank.

W0lf_z13 · December 2016

yeah had to restart the game twice yesterday for the short amount of time i was in BwB ... spent most of my time recreating a certain character for another BwB run on my second account

Yesterday was not bad at all for me, I don't remember having any load screens... but the day before yesterday was like

Load Screen ( take a break )
Load Screen ( take a break )

Ash is under attack.. do I travel or load screen?

Load Screen ( take a break )
Load Screen ( take a break )
....
Load Screen ( go to bed )

Adenoma · December 2016

Yeah. I was playing a tiny bit solo yesterday and I hit a few loadscreens and realized I had other things to do.

Just_call_me_Cola · December 2016

Whom ever can recreate the cyrodil load screen art from memory by this weekend wins a super special awesome prize

W0lf_z13 · December 2016

@Just_call_me_Cola whats the prize? another load screen? :P

Stridig · December 2016

I'm sure the only response we will get about the load screens is that there is already another thread discussing the topic.

I think you need more than just a few skyshards, lel. Fact: you've got 15-20 levels on most other players and in bwb that means you should be waltzing over just about everyone. A decent skill bar set up, a hefty dose of situational awareness and a bit of good hard thinking about why you shouldn't only rely on cloak as a STA-MI-NA nightblade might help you. Maybe.

Adenoma · December 2016

@Scamh , character level is practically meaningless in BwB once you're beyond 30. It is by no means an indicator of one person's character being stronger than another. Most of my builds won't have significant change after level 34-36 until they vet and are deleted.
