Solo Ganking

Reavan · March 2014

Who else plans to do alot of this in the Alliance war? :disagree:
In other games surprising people 1vX has always been my favorite thing to do.

I'm a nightblade, going to try vampire to see how it is later on going for a sort of high damage stamina build with 2h and bow.
Will see how it works out

just watch for fighters guild members with silver bolts.

Well even with fighters guild members, you should mostly fear them if its 2 of them vs 1.

As a nightblade having invisibility, teleporting strikes, there is little need for vampirism or anything else if you plan on ganking only, also vampires get a huge damage spike from anything with fire in it.... so a fighters guild DK will probably tear you a new one.

Me and my girlfriend will probably be roaming Cyrodiil in a "dynamic duo". Beware all ye distracted folks muahahha

I've created a small guild of just Nightblade's. Prepare yourself Dawnbreaker.

My playstyle usually involves avoiding damage altogether and that can work in this game theres a few tools to completely avoid it skillfully rather than tanking it with your hp and resistance numbers.
I like the idea of being an evil vampire anyway.

Vampire have the passive damage mitigation and also the spell mitigation so I believe it will work, i hope people keep believing it won't though don't want lots of copies!

4 NBs with bows and siphon, 2 Sorc./ healers vs 15-20 pubbers, N.P. takes less than 5 mins to get 20 kills often.

You don't necessarily need to be a Nightblade. Every class can stealth. I killed a lot of single reinforcements in the beta as a Dragon Knight in Heavy Armor. It can work very well for any class.

True, first strike is more important than anything else. If you surprize someone and can kill them in about 3 seconds...they better think really fast. I have had most trouble with dual wield sin types NB and some sorc/caster builds, in 1v1s. They can kill me so fast is no time to react, the ranger NB is more versatile but not quite as fast at ganking from stealth
1v1.

For a solo PVP roamer, what is the best class? I am thinking Sorcerer has the best escape with "Bolt Escape". I do not think "Shadow Cloak" is that great because if other Nightblades mark you with "Mark Target" they can still see you while invisible and charge you.

There really isn't a pbest class for solo pvp......I roll with my brother, a NS and I'm a Templar Archer. It's all about getting the right combination.

Its true bolt escape is awesome for soloing but at the start of the game id not pick a class for their op skills as these thing will be in line for the inevitable nerfs which will come.
