    I'm 100 % biased, but nightblade.
    NB enthusiastic:
    1. Woodhippie stamblade - DW hard-hitter / PvE
    2. Know-it-all elf Magblade - Healer / PvE & PvP
    3. Hate-them-all elf Magblade - Destrostaff AoE monster / PvE
    4. Cyrodiil-Refugee stamblade - Stamina Tank / PvE

    Go dominion or go home

    Nightblade-Hipster. I played Nightblade before it was cool - from 1.5 onwards.

    Kinda subjective. Not everyone is going to agree on the same one.
    Everyone has a plan, until their plan gets nerfed

    Apparently the only Stamplar left on PC EU

    What purpose?

    PVE? Both works fine. You can still do LA rotation with Magblades. Although Stam DK is the only one with relatively pleasant HA rotation. It can also tank.

    PVP? Both having a hard time. But to be honest I would prefer Stam DK anyway, even after the nerfs. Magblade is dead for me since DB patch.

    Nightblades literally take no skill. Especially MagBlades. And that’s regarding PvE or PvP circumstances.

    Want to farm VMA efficiently and swiftly? Use a MagBlade. I used to think my MagSorc pet build was amazing at farming VMA. With MagPlars trailing behind as a close second. Nope. Not compared to MagBlades they aren’t. MagBlades turn VMA into a laughing stock. It’s that easy with that particular class variant.

    Want to farm AP without the slightest bit of effort? Use a BombBlade or any variant of MagBlade, and just watch the AP come rushing to you. It’s ridiculous as fast I used to could farm AP on my MagBlade, compared to my MagSorc and MagDK. It’s hardly even a comparison.

    So pretty much, just go about MagBlade if you want ESO to be “easy mode” for 99.9% of the game. Which some people I’m assuming to be fun, being as they’re probably fans of the whole hit-n’-run rouge playstyle. Play a StamDK if you want to a challenge in ESO, and want to really learn the inner works of a lot of things. Which I particularly find more fun in. I hardly ever touch my Nightblades, because of how easy they are to play. They ruin ESO for me. Where as StamDK’s require my attention to be paid to things, and require less screw-ups. You have a myriad of “oh s***” recovery options as a MagBlade, which in my opinion takes away from the vast majority of fun ESO has to offer.

    Magblades ease in PVE? I agree

    But all u wrote about it PVP wise is mostly incorrect, at least from perspective of a solo player.
    One bomblade with current Metas is not enough, its far from enough. You need at least two, but hey VD do not crit and Alchemist is trash now. Hit'n'run? Dude, are u serious? This ain't stam, u can be effective against some zerglings, but at the end of the day, 2 smart guys will wipe the floor with ur ass. No shade (still bugged) will help, neither will cloak. Unless stacking the dmg, Magblades naturally struggling with high spell resistance. Guess what is the Meta?
    From my perspective snares kills Magblades, since we lost ability to remove them Magblade were never the same anymore.

    Magblade has the more interesting rotation with greater capacity to show skill with.

    In PVP magblade can actually run a number of interesting builds, whereas DK is sorta shoved into running full tank or off-tank

    I play a character called "Gives Me Wood Elf" because I am a mature and sensible person.
