ESO PvP: StamBlade High CRIT BURST 1vX Build Tutorial (Necrom) | "The BURST Blade"

[@SomethingOriginalFPV]

Just tried this out tonight and I gotta say 👌 I don't currently hit crit dmg cap for lack of race against time, but I replaced the slot with lotus fan for the 10% dmg increase and I honestly really enjoyed having a gap closer but I'll be grinding psijic tomorrow. I also changed a few things, like dropped markyn for wild hunt infused wepdmg (I'm a hunt addict I run it on almost everything) and swapped balorg for roksa (mostly just to see how ridiculous I could make the sustain). I'm going to give it a go with bloodspawn tomorrow just to see how the extra resist feels, though it's already tough a nails. Had two stamblades try to jump me, got smacked to 10% health, burst heal to full and proceeded to make them regret their choices. Excellent work dude. Hits like a ganker, fights like Mike Tyson.

[@alles404]

Thanks, another great vid from Hex. I really really like your builds. They works very well! Keep it up!

[@Hexapug]

Thank you for the support much appreciated! I definitely will!

[@runkorko]

Good on papper and vs plebs.. There are bash builds / not affected from wep/spell dmg. Also classes like arcanist/dk/warden run HP based heals, so you wont reduce their healing. Crit builds are great until you face the right ppl :P

[@Hexapug]

I know not all builds in PvP heals would be reduced but most players that do damage would be reduced because the universal heal Vigor would definitely be reduced, DK’s Coag morph the one every non Tank build runs and the Arcanist Runemend heal would be reduced

[@willywonka00]

Exactly this build is useless against good players.

[@josephsanchez9994]

@@willywonka00what build would you suggest?

[@NobushigeAzai]

I put together a janky version of this build (because I don't have markyn) and it's legit even with that piece missing. I prefer my current build because it's less dependent on crit but this build is FIRE! Mind you, I'm not not a vamp, nor am I a khajiit. I play a Bosmer and this still worked like a charm. I never even knew that mass hysteria gave opponents major cowardice! You could really see a huge decrease in your enemy's output on damage and healing when you get power extraction and mass hysteria going!! I haven't ran it in Cyrodiil, but it smacked in battlegrounds!!!

[@differentcontrast7997]

Cool, howd you get so much pen though? im only getting like 7k with the same set up pretty much

[@symonym730]

Hey nice Video, appreciate the Content :) Where do you get your 30% crit from?

[@littlepinkdot2916]

Hello, just found your channel. Im preparing my old stamblade for the next patch. Im wondering if you can critique her build a bit. Shes a cute wood elf. She's using Orders Wrath and mechanical acuity with Zaan set. Her crit damage is only 55% I can't get it as high as yours. But will the extra crit chance make up for it? Shes using a sharpened great sword (2Hander) I guess it's possible to switch to a nirnhoned great axe. I don't have enough magicka to depend only on the guaranteed crit from Shadowy disguise. She brawls it out alot. Shes bow back bar for major expedition so she can bombard in battleground from behind my team. Hoping my bombard crits. When the new patch comes out I will be able to drop Camo hunter and put relentless focus on front bar. Freeing up a spot for reapers mark on back bar for a source of major breach. I have 2 bloodthirsty traits on my jewelry because it's cheaper. But she doesn't use an execute so I figured it would help her. I chose Ambush instead because I find it easier to get to people, and she doesn't use a stun/fear. The minor vulnerability is a bonus. I use forward momentum front bar for major brutality and cc immunity. Channeled acceleration back bar because the minor force lasts longer. I mostly play battlegrounds, but for CP I use celebrity, dualist rebuff, deadly aim, and the CP that reduces damage from Dots by 6%. What are your thoughts?

[@nathanee4425]

I love your nightblade builds its been a while since you made a new one. Glad to finally see you be a kitty cat too lol about time

[@maliceblades9129]

Get a buddy to share quest get more chances took me few days

[@ashton6785]

The secret is there are more dailys then just the ones behind that counter. I didn’t realize there were any other daily’s besides those two bosses. I did the boss daily’s for prob 2 months in total without getting the drop and (not joking) the very first time I did the other daily (that I never heard of) it dropped. The very first one.

[@dauernutzung2381]

I love this build although I wonder why you did not put the15% more damage from nirnhoned trait on the offhand for the dual wield passive "dual wield expert"?

[@Hexapug]

Aye I’m glad you enjoyed the build! The reason for no Nirn on the off hand is that it only gets 1/3 of the potency from it so it basically gets like +5% more, so it’s best to put a different trait to maximize damage

[@Jinx_TG]

I run pretty much the same skill except I run camo Hunter instead of elemental susceptibility, should I swap camo Hunter out?

[@Hexapug]

You should definitely try out Ele Sus imo it’s better than Camo Hunter, because you get nearly 6k armor shred on the target and Minor Vuln and Minor Brittle, but Camo Hunter can pull NightBlades out of cloak, just try it I definitely think you’ll like it, plus it shreds armor so your teammates will also hit harder on the target

[@josephsanchez9994]

Do you think this would work well with 2h instead of dual wield?

[@Hexapug]

Yes this build would most definitely work with 2H, it’s just 2W just does way more damage, if you do want 2H run a Sharpened Axe with an Absorb Stam enchant

[@MightyMaul796]

😂😂 you beat me up 😂 0:24

[@beerdrinkingbear912]

Like the build a lot but I just can't beat this master/vateshran dot combo on arcanists or wardens. I lose so much health and can't keep up spamming heals while they take literally 0 dmg. Spamming shields + blocking it's just a nightmare. Eso PvP isn’t fun nowadays unless you play the same meta crap as everyone else 😞

I’m a Khajiit, and yes my potions are popped, are you using Power Extraction on an enemy that gives a lot of weapon and spell damage and also use your Merciless Resolve and light attack 5 times that will grant you an extra 300 weapon and spell damage, also I casted an Ulti at 500 to get Balorgh’s full proc

[@812ReP]

I don’t think I fully understood your weapon enchants. Are you saying that an absorb stam enchant will proc minor breach?

[@Hexapug]

So doing any form of Physical Damage that isn’t a Light or Heavy Attack has a chance to proc the Sundered Status Effect, which does very small initial damage but also applies Minor Breach for 4 seconds, and enchant damage has the highest chance to proc a Status Effect at 20% base

[@812ReP]

@@Hexapug Thanks! always learnin somethin new

[@Dacore_DE]

@@Hexapug But the stamina morph of the nb spammable will proc Sundered to 100% ? Its seems a bit redundant. Fire Enchant will do more damage, especially against Vampires, which are overused in PvP.

[@Hexapug]

@Dacore_DE Yes great notice the thing about PvP it’s a very dynamic beast, sometimes you only have time for 2 skills to try and burst someone so if we Incap Bow someone we still have a chance to have Minor Breach on a target for the burst, because they might roll dodge the Surprise Attack or you’ll get CC’d before the 3rd skill, that’s just my preference though you are open to whatever enchantment you prefer

[@moodi3340]

What are they changing spectral bow?

[@Hexapug]

It looks like next patch you no longer have to active the skill to build stacks, you are able to build stacks at all times and at 5 stacks you can cast the skill, a great change because your bow will no longer drop right before your combo!

[@moodi3340]

@@Hexapug whhhats they are buffing something that’s already op😂

[@Hexapug]

Haha I know and the one that gets me next patch is that Cloak is going to give the Major 12% Crit (Major Savagery/Prophecy) for both bars for just having cloak slotted on 1 bar… It’s going to be dark times in PvP

[@repo683]

can i replace the balorgh with anything bac i don't have the dlc or eso ?

[@Hexapug]

Sorry about the delay, a great alternative I very much like is Bloodspawn the Incap spam is so much fun! Selene’s is also another good setting

[@hussleforlove7179]

So this is meta? So 3 pieces of each ? Orders wrath and wretched with heavy monster set ? Im 1160 cp so max, so where it says critical damage % un characters menu, mine is only 37% , im missng some wepon damage enchants on some jewelery - neck is a green and ring is blue - i dont have gold to get spell enchanments , ill fix my champion points and see the results

[@Hexapug]

So having 3 pieces of 2 sets active on the body is the Meta setup, as you will proc the 5 piece on the front bar for one set and the other 5 piece on the back bar when needed, that will allow you to slot a powerful Mythic with 1 Trainee and 2 Monster sets, as for armor weights the only thing that truly matters is the Chest is heavy and the other 2 pieces can either be heavy Head, Shoulders, Legs or Feet as they have all the same armor resists and swap them for medium if that makes sense This build is an older build and definitely is viable still, but I have new NightBlade build that definitely is easier to play but requires grinding of sets

Yes, for only 1 attack from Stealth or Invisibility, then it completely falls off

[@laxing1480]

@@Hexapug Doesn't completely fall off then you still have the 8% comparable to orders wrath lol. And idk bout you but i can use cloak several times during a fight aswell as hitting them from the side and it still counts as "attacking from behind"

[@Hexapug]

@laxing1480 I’m sorry I didn’t fully explain my self, the set has a POTENTIAL to hit for 24% more crit damage for 1 direct damage ability from Stealth or Invisibility which isn’t as great because a Light/Heavy attack would consume the 24% damage which is lackluster because hitting a Heavy or even Light attack would make up the extra damage, as for the set it doesn’t proc off the enemies flank ONLY from hitting from Stealth or Invis, as for the falling off Order’s Wrath will still do 8% more crit damage as much as Archer’s but Order’s does have that 4.5% crit chance to which is very powerful, and Gourmand’s has 5% more flat damage at all times

Same bro this game is trash, what I learned is people like this pick clips which anyone can do, then act liek this is the majority of what the build does. Which just isn't true. I've played for 8 years. This build is trash and way to conditional, and it takes too long to meet that condition, so you end up dying. This build is trash

[@Hexapug]

@willywonka00 Right let me guess you sound like the type of very “skilled” player that likes to run over 3 proc sets on a carry class that does all the damage for you while Zerging someone because you don’t have the simple knowledge of “Target Selection” or “Kiting” or “Being able to set up a simple combo”

[@willywonka00]

@Hexapug Actually I've played night blade since beta. The reason this build sucks is because of those builds. You can't use a build like this because the healing is low, your movement speed is low, you have to spend too much time trying to set up the combo, that half the time won't kill anyone. So it's useless. It's the state of the game. Which is why I started with this game sucks now. If you try fighting two or more people you will be stunned and killed before you cna get any combo off at all. Live stream this build and you going off on it and I'll believe you. Or post live video of you not dying every 5 minutes of combat . Not 10 second kill clips

Power extract, killer blade are better morph and are stam, merciless last longer, it provide "less" but its actually negligeable, thi next patch it wont need to be cast, just slotted and use when you got all stack.
