This will be semi-long winded as I want to be detailed.
I've been playing off and on since beta, but I've noticed or at-least believe i may be under-performing as my NB. Mainly because of PVP (recently got into it)
I'm aware that PVP and PVE are totally different realms, I've PVP'd just fine on other games/mmo's. But for example, i've watched other nightblades destroy other people, or myself, yet when i try anything similar i cant drag them sub-75%ish.
I am also looking for an overall suggestion for both PVP AND PVE.
Character details:
champion level (25%ish into the 'second' storyline)
Khajiit
Vampire
Nightblade.
100% Medium Armor
Weapons: Bow -main/ twin-dagger (off-spec)
(I picked these early on [as this is my first and main character] because I liked the theme, and it fit my style, at the time I didn't know how strong or weak they were, this class/race/disease choice was 100% based on preference/aesthetic)
(combat) skills I have access to:
Assassination:
Killers Blade

All Skills basically maxed out/Morphable including ULT

I'm trying to become more of a MELEE - dual dagger build with HEAVY siphoning/lifesteal and make my bow be a Backup the issue I 'think' i'm running into is i have MASSIVE STAM critical (47-52%)
but piddly spell critical at 14.5%
But since siphoning has to do with spells, mostly, i think.
What do I need to do to improve myself?
Am I going to have to level light armor for spell crit? Am I fine as-is? Do I need to respec? etc etc etc.
Basically I'm looking to be highly self-sustaining at melee range, while still pumping out decent or high damage.
ANY criticism/suggestions/both are WELCOME. Please help me fix my character (if it's broken in the under-powered way)
Part 2:
I have an Argonain Dragon Knight, who I intend to be a Werewolf (already unlocked lycanthropy)
I've gone for Heavy armor, trying to be more of a '2 handed weapon knight' style but I also know that werewolves thrive on stamina...
Do I need to swap to medium armor to perform well, or am I good? I intend to use some magicka DK spells as well.
Any info on this is welcome.
In the case of both of these i'm not even asking for a 'perfect' build, I just want to Improve if any of you see faults with it.
