Although Argonian is better at healer or tank the Nightblade isn't, they can work but for most trials groups (especially if you wish to move up to veteran) people will want stronger classes.
You would do fine as a Magicka DPS character, you won't do as much damage as a fully specialised class but if you spend the time getting gear and practising rotations you should be fine.
You'll also have the advantage of slightly higher HP than a normal optimal race meaning you can drop off the health from food and focus on more magicka/magicka regen food for damage.
Same theory would apply to stamina DPS but you won't get the 3% bonus from the Argonian (every little helps)
You will also be able to take advantage of the healing/healing received when using Swallow Soul/Funnel Health.teiselaise wrote: »Although Argonian is better at healer or tank the Nightblade isn't, they can work but for most trials groups (especially if you wish to move up to veteran) people will want stronger classes.

I play a Dunmer Nightblade as my main and mostly stick to Alcast's builds, he normally has some entry level information within his builds. Main thing for Magicka Nightblade is getting good with keeping your damage over time abilities up and getting light attacks in-between every skill, as both the Nightblades sustain skill (syphoning attacks) and one of their damage skills (merciless resolve) require light or heavy attacks to function.
Argonian, yep, go Magic.
Take advantage of the inherent Crtical strikes of the class and use 5 Piece Julianos (crafted) and some other set that helps with either Spell Damage or Spell Crits. Mother's Sorrow is one that comes to mind for Crits, see the list linked below for other ideas. Or you could go Willpower Jewelry and 2 Piece Torugs Pact. Scathing Mage would also be a good set, but you have to farm Imperial City Prison for that.
