Nightblades: The weakest PVP class for Summerset?

  • platonicidealgirlfriend
    why would you use an ult that merely prolongs the fight when you could pop an ult to eat a nb's borderline nonexistent health? lol

    Hey guys, so as many of you know, NBs are currently fairly strong in the meta. Unfortunately ZOS has already shown how they plan to over-nerf and destroy the NB playstyle completely in PVP with their announcement yesterday. How is this, you ask? With the Psijic Order skill Undo.

    You can see that this ultimate will completely reset any battle, Let's take a moment to consider how nightblades play. They burst you down out of stealth 100 to 0 in under 4 seconds. Now imagine that right as they've blown their load, wasted their entire burst, made themselves vulnerable, someone pops this ultimate. The nightblade will be completely helpless and ineffective. I'll be surprised if a nightblade ever gets another kill in this game.

    I also find it very troubling that this ultimate will allow players to just reset a fight. If you're going to fight in PVP, you should commit to it and not be able to just reset the fight willy nilly and escape.

    I'd like to suggest, as a solution, that incap be buffed. I think that it'd make the most sense for players hit by incap to have increased ultimate cost. This would help to prevent Undo spamming by low skill players as some sort of easy button.

    Please, for the love of Talos, make some major buffs to nightblade before this chapter releases or they'll become the StamDK of the game.

    The skill shouldn't exist and the skill line already sounds annoying and cancerous as ***, but the night blade can also reset if the burst fails so your entire argument is silly. Any sentence that asks for a buff to incap is coming from a one-sided moron.

    These freak out threads are pretty bad. First of all, let's wait to see actual information on how the ability works, then freak out. (And even if it was working as 'feared' it's still not that bad - You can undo if you are dead - and I'm sure everyone will just be running around with this slotted as their ulti just b/c of the random NB that might gank them - if they did, good for them - now fight them face to face, your ulti will still be up before theirs - etc etc)

    This kinda maked me laugh for a while. We dont know anything more about Undo ability and Summerset DLC changes we just have a glimps of 3 abilities from new skill line yet some nb white knight already starts to come with arguments for buffing nb's (looks like stam nb's) in PvP. The most funny part is that he propose to buff not Death Stroke or Soul Harvest , oh no it must be incap so now people wont be even able to use their defensive ultimates when stam nb will jump on them stuns , applies major defile and 20% more dmg taken debuff.

    Just LOL :lol:

    Looks pretty great to me, maybe it will break up the super damage trend.

    Guess what, already totally possible. Already a set that does this to NB when you run it. NB ganks, drops there whole rotation before they realize they're doing no damage. If you're not a smart enough NB to dip back out of the fight after someone Drops Undo (IF... IF they even have it up) Then you deserve to die. Wont change much, and that's even if someone actually runs a defensive Ulti. Most will probably stick to there offensive Ulti.
