Just wanted to share a Video i made playing a Bow/Bow ganker in action. I am pretty new to editing i guees, but I like making videos though... wanna hear your feedback 
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YtF4x4bHeFA&t=0s
Enjoy!

These videos are really fun to make so I decided to make another one and add it here! I may even make it a series, we see though hah.
Special thanks to my friends who helped film the intro, they truly deserve an Oscar

✭✭✭✭✭I couldn't watch with sound but otherwise the video looked great.
I loved that fighting on the tower and seeing you use the terrain, I wish Cyrodiil had more of this in the main combat areas.
Also interesting to see someone playing without any noticeable add-ons.@Turelus - EU PC Megaserver

✭✭I will never play an archer but I love it.
Bow/bow distinct playstyle.
Now you need to add some high player kills in your vids0 -

✭✭✭✭✭I enjoyed it. It's nice to see a different play style. I loved the fight in the tower ruins @ 2:40 or so. Have you considered a resto back bar for added survivability?Edited by zyk on March 21, 2018 9:55AM1 -

Volsers✭✭✭Thanks all!
Yeah, I should mention here that @DDuke was the original creator of the build, so credit to himI enjoyed it. It's nice to see a different play style. I loved the fight in the tower ruins @ 2:40 or so. Have you considered a resto back bar for added survivability?
You mean for the Ultimate? Yup, it could work as a really good life saver if I get caught out of stealth to get some extra time. My resto level is probably 0 though so it will be a grind hah, I will consider it 1 -
killimandrosb16_ESO✭✭✭✭✭Its ok, I also use more or less same tactic, with some tweaks
But, what about this; dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge, dodge....etc...etc...
The combo is great, snipe and then arrowspray and finish off with poison injection if it doesnt work(asylum bow gives you a 6 sec. window where your snipe or PI is empowered by 50% so technically as long as you actually HIT with arrow spray, which can be, yes dodged...you can use other poison skills to finish off).
But if the arrow spray is dodged youre in for a good fight, and then you are the underdog by a huge score.0 -

✭✭✭✭✭lol Great job for first video ! You farmed a lot of forum salt too so you are doing very well . Bow is very fun . I have not played stamina in year now but remember how fun bow was . So bravo to you .1 -
Vilestride✭✭✭✭✭I loved it and I am making this build right now.
3:18 in the tower was the best. Taking your revenge at the end on the appropriately named nigh-blade OP was pretty good to.2 -

In a highly structured game like a boxing match, that would be a valid point, but not in open world AvA which is supposed to be highly dynamic with a variety of styles. In pre-launch interviews ZOS devs described gameplay like what's in the video.Edited by zyk on March 23, 2018 8:18AM2 -

✭✭✭✭I've run builds like this a few times.
Marksman with red mountain was my favourite setup before they nerfed red mountain. If red mountain proceed it was one shot on 90% of people.
It's fun for a few days but I always switch back to a conventional nb after a few days.0 -
pitboiii✭✭Very nice build and the video is great! Good to know a bow/bow build can work in pvp keep it up with them snipes bro!2 -

"If you find yourself in a fair fight, your tactics suck."
I don't think Special Operations soldiers alert the enemy of their deployment dates and equipped firepower. That's because they want to win.
If you enjoy a fair fight, power to you. Last I checked it is an alliance war, and the goal is to win. Calling that disgusting is...kinda silly.7 -

I dont see this nightblade contributing to the alliance war nor earning ap for the sake of his alliance, All i see is some glass cannon pleb that nukes pepole out of stealth for his own fun and killing other players exp'. PVP in this game has much more to offer than this.Edited by amir412 on March 25, 2018 10:41AMPC | EU | AD |Stam Dk named "-Saidden"| 1700 CP|"..A world without fire.

Please source me where the devs described dying in one gcd from a sneaking opponent.
I think this is something that has no place in an mmo. Any fight even initiated from sneak/stealth should offer possibilities for all involved players to participate.
If the only chance of participation is releasing at the nearest keep somethings off.
It´s a game. The ideal is for all participants in a player versus player interaction is to have fun reguardless of the outcome of the fight imo.
All those people comparing it to real life warfare need to seriously check their priorities.Edited by Derra on March 25, 2018 8:32AM<Noricum>
