The "secret" exploit of the Nightblade class

    It is never right to ban players for errors made by the developers. Lets be serious here. If someone is a committed Nightblade they're going to 'abuse' this. I can remember when Nightblade was a laughing stock in this game and I can also remember when my Argonian Nightblade was particularly a laughing stock. People still find ways to mock the build as now apparently Dunmer are superior to Argonian. I'm not so certain of this but I can see how this would be true in the world of top scoring Trials guilds.

    Definitely broken. I wouldn't vote to ban anybody, but it makes me sad that things like this are happening and put at disadvantage the players who who také tooltips as something that matters.

    But seriusly give us back the purge and ppl would drop the crit version like in the old days, the crit version was the middle child back then, and what happened? they nerfd it so then people adapted. But there is only so much a person can adapt before the class is guttered to the ground, and it is because of threads like this that each and every single class is getting destroyed so no thanks l2p.

    I will first of all ,I`m not considering this an exploit, however I think it´s something that has to change.

    A "not so unusual scenario":

    * You face a stamblade in Cyrodil
    * You manage to get the stamblade low on HP
    * The stamblade manage to escape and get into cloak. While in cloak they recast rally (many stamblades will use shuffle as snareremoval and use rally for heals) which will then guarantee to crit. And if rally has been ticking for a while it will take them to almost full HP again.
    * The stamblade has just reseted the fight and is good to go again.


    To be honest, I think this should be included in the future changes regarding critical healing. At the moment critical damage modifier also affects heals which will be changed in the future. The tooltip of cloak clearly indicates it should be the next attack that is a guaranteed critical strike. Since heals, such as rally and vigor (which is usually the most common heals to combine with cloak) aren´t attacks, they shouldn´t be affected by cloaks "guaranteed crit".

    There is a bunch of steps for a nb to reset a fight like u said, dodge roll, shufle ,vigor, cloak and rally. And there is hard counters to it and if you are top tier player or atleast above average you always will carry detect pots and they come in many flavors, detect inmovable restore magicka just to mention one of many. But dont complain about the only source of healing nb has when there is clases that can one punch a heal from 2% health to 100% in one cast right on your face, or the stam warden that can absorb a 4 man group dps run around a tree heal and burst them all at the same time while healing lol. i dont mind any of those tbh because thats the point of the game, adapt , counter and outplay your oponent and if you cant you try harder untill i succed.

    *please my friends stop the nerf threads*

    It is slowly killing the game....

    If it is not intended and people are taking advantage of it then it is an exploit!

    All your *dire* news dont appear to be dire at all.

    And most important, you deliver exact *howtos* to the community, which means you are disclosing exploit information if you are right. Thats against the TOS. >:)

    In fact, you made me use this hidden feature, both of us should get banned. >:)

    I am reporting bugs good sir if you have a problem with that then you can get out of my thread. I provide ZOS detailed information so they know how to reproduce the bugs/exploits I report.
