    Oh man, Sorcs bragging about Nightblades. As a DK or Templar I'd wish to have the nerfed Streak because it is still better than everything my class has.

    Sorcerers and Nightblades are the two classes that really should not complain about anything in that regard.
    @Seraphayel

    Friend please go play 100 hours solo on a MagSorc. You will quickly learn that EVERY STAMINA CLASS has better mobility. Forward momentum + sprint outshines MagSorc's class-defining "escape" mechanism by miles.

    Here's an idea...since you spend so much time explaining why Nightblades are so OP why don't you just go make one and dominate Cyrodiil?

    Maybe, just maybe he wants to see more than just one class in battlegrounds and Cyrodiil?

    This is about buffing streak, not changing cloak. Ironically, and oh so sadly ironically, nightblades complain about Sorcs the most.

    So every class should have an escape tool, then? Then what's the point of having different classes? Streak made it so sorcs could literally just run away and reset a fight at will. Nightblades can cloak but you can still counter that with detect pots and other detect skills. Most people complain about stam blades, well let me tell you, stam blades run out of magicka pretty quickly if they are spamming cloak. Not to mention when they cloak they don't go very far, unlike streak.

    And streak doesn't has any counters or what? But to ignore gap closers and snares seem to suit your argument better.

    I blame a certain player who did streak from Aleswell to Faregyl in the long past. Coincidentally he also was accused of running third party tools.

    I did enjoy how Streak was in its unnerfed state. Good times. Alas these are past. Gap closer spam is a thing ever since ZOS introduced the mini snare to make sure they connect. Streak has never recovered from these changes.

    I rarely slot Streak in PVP.
    It is pretty useless nowadays.
