Unkillable one-bar Nightblade for 2023

[@cobadera]

I've been looking for a solid NB build and you have made it, great video as usual keep'em coming and thanks.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Thanks, will do!

[@davery07]

Great video. Now that I finally have oakensoul I may try this build for my kitty nightblade. Much thanks. :)

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Hope you enjoy it!

[@robertweber1571]

Nice build! Thank you, please keep them coming!

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Thanks I will...have 4 scripts in the works right now!! Appreciate the view.

[@robertweber1571]

@@ExplorationGamingESO Great, looking forward to seeing them

[@arokiingaming8847]

Like and Subbed my man, thanks for the relaxing style of video

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Thanks for the sub! I really appreciate it.

[@judsdragon]

slimecraw gives u a higher crit stat for its 1 piece bonus than iceheart btw but its not game breaking as i use a zaan helm on one of my heavy attack builds as i didnt have the transmutes at the time, during the red cp u said boundless vitality gave 14 thousand health instead of 14 hundred lol i wish forgot to send this comment earlier for some reason doh anyhow been running around playing this build for the last few hrs and other than switching out crippling grasp for elemental susceptibility and certain red cp nodes i prefer this is working very very nicely so cheers for the vid and the bob ross voice lol

[@Gtfdsrfhjuytrfjjigfrr]

Nice! I used to have fun with Hexos, Mother's Sorrow, Slimecraw on a magplar.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

oh you have to try this Bahraha set then...its very interesting.

[@Gtfdsrfhjuytrfjjigfrr]

I'll definitely check it out. It looks cool.

[@Gtfdsrfhjuytrfjjigfrr]

I goofed around with combining Hexos and Hatchling's Shell at one point. Not much on the damage side, but hella shields lol

[@IamSonoma]

Great video. I am on break from ESO but would love to see a version of this for sorc, warden and dk. BC is a good set and I used it for a while when starting out for tougher areas. I liked it so much I had it golded out just to push more damage Never thought of pairing it with hexos ward. Good combo. The 4th on the BC set is most likely due to the traps in part of Hews Bane. It does not seem that great for traps anywhere else. A year ago these sets may have not of worked well do to low DPS but with oaken soul and heavy attacks sounds neat. BC come in 3 weights. Which did you go with? Also, why can you not deconstruct the sets?

[@BeKind1Love]

Thank you, this helped a lot. I forgot about hexos ward

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Glad it helped!

[@marstonia]

Good Job on the video! I'm a little late to the party watching this, but I'm hoping it is still a viable build. Gonna try it out later today. Question: So what exactly is your "rotation"? I was trying to decipher it from watching your video.

[@dannyc3954]

Still working on bharahas curse but I am going to make this night blade I even bought another armory slot just for it

[@ocabear]

I find this build very interesting. I have been running a Stam version 2 handed 1 bar that does well. I may try this to see if it works better for me. I really do like this build and have wanted to get into magical a bit more. Very enjoyable vid.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Go for it! Let me know how you like it!

[@allanthomson4639]

thanks Marko

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

my plasure.

[@BoardAbove]

Nightblade is my least played class but this is very approachable! Thank you for the video. Are you still running a guild for your channel? Tried to find it in game but the guild finder leaves much to be desired.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

yeah, the guild finder leaves MUCH to be desired. Look for my character in game and I'll add you to the guild. @jakeweston645

[@alunert8693]

sorry for the google translate ^^. Thank you very much for making my quests nothing simpler with your build. Just a question, the jewels you put them in what trait please ? .

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

bloodthirsty is best, but arcane is fine.

[@Filthypunkrocker]

Awesome 👍

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

thanks for watching!

[@LifeBeforeDeath1]

slimecraw is a better 1 piece crit bonus for monster

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

I often use slimecraw...iceheart is a great set especially for the folks who don't have oakensoul and want to use a 2 piece monster set.

[@prophetmgs]

@@ExplorationGamingESObut slime craw1 piece gives better crit than iceheart

[@bentmercer]

I run mother's and orders wrath, slimecraw, thief, precise lightning staff, have 78 percent crit. One bar magblade with oakensoul. With food around 34k magika, 26k health. Group dungeons are a joke. I use Hexos sometimes for even more survivability, but it's not really needed. My group and single target spammables both heal me. I only use nightblade abilities.

[@williamgrant7391]

How are you getting 2 different armor set 5 bonus and useing oaksoul? Are you running a 2h weapon and does it goes as 2 pcs?

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

all builds can use 2 different 5 piece sets, 1 mythic (oakensoul) and 1 piece monster set (usually I pick slimecraw helm. And yes, any 2-handed weapon counts for 2 pieces.

[@TheSantiago001]

I am using this same build with NB vampire. with the mist is the best .

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

good to hear it works well with vamps. I did some werewolf builds, but vamps are difficult to manage for me.

[@ClownetteZombie]

Maybe im blind. But what armour class should i use? Light or medium? Really liked the video, and I want to try this out!

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

the answer to that question is almost always light because of the passives...

[@WylieWolfenstein]

I'm just curious as to what your dps is. I do 55k using relequen, pillar, 1 slimecraw, thunderous volley(maelstrom bow) and pale order. But without damage shields I was unable to complete veteran maelstrom. Maybe I should try this considering I already have bahraha jewelry and hexos ward armor.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

DPS on this was over 55K

[@barsyarar341]

Can you solo veteran fang lair with this? Pale order is a must it seems :)

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

I'd use ROPO..but i rarely solo on vet

[@kristinakamarauskas8691]

What passive and skills should I use for a High Elf? Ty.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

always invest in ALL your racial passives. They are a must.

[@kristinakamarauskas8691]

I have my passive maxed. I wanted to know which attacks I should use on my skills bar. Are they same for all knightblades regardless of race?. Ty.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

@@kristinakamarauskas8691 use the exact ones in the video, race makes no difference. Good work on the passives...don't forget your champion points.

[@savior76gd]

Is there a written guide for this? I know you said any five pieces will do, but it seems to me that most guides intentionally go for specific pieces when doing two, five-piece sets. I've only been playing since October, so the nuances still haven't set in with me yet.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

No written guide for this build because both sets can be bought on guild traders...my suggestion is to play in The Deadlands and see which Hexos' Ward pieces you can collect...when you have 5...then go and purchase Bahrahas on guild traders...or go to Hew's bane and try for those missing slots.

[@savior76gd]

@@ExplorationGamingESO Thanks for responding. I've pretty much been living in The Deadlands for the last couple of days. Initially, I was getting a lot of Hexos'. Seems to have dried up, but I do have 5 pieces now. Already had the Bahrahas set before this video and I got the Oakensoul a few days ago. I'm in a good place atm.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

@@savior76gd you are ready to rumble!! Let me know how you like it...for the monster piece Slimecraw or Iceheart are both great!

[@savior76gd]

@@ExplorationGamingESO It's gonna be a minute before I can actually test it out as I am also working on a Vampire build as well, which I started before seeing this build.

[@14mcdonk]

Could hear u very well. Turn up the mic volume.

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

new audio software. Volume will be higher in future!

[@gstoner8432]

Crippling Grasp is a Siphoning skill line

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

yep, I didn't say it wasn't...and I mention the siphon skill line in necessary passives. Thanks for watching.

[@dannyroe1697]

Can you mix prayer shawl with hexos and get both shields up?

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

I believe they will stack, so yes.

[@dannyc3954]

Hey Bob we missed ya

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

good to be back in the game.

[@jacobjohns9091]

this pure pve? or works in pvp too?

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

it would need some tweaking to work well in pvp.

[@AmT-yd-]

@@ExplorationGamingESOwhat would you change for a heavy attack pvp build? I have a friend whose older and loves pvp but can’t do all the button mashing

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

@@AmT-yd- it's a whole build because PvP is all about an overpowered first strike. it can be done with heavy attacks though.

[@erikdandurand3124]

Your voice is very hard to hear on this one, I had to turn up the volume to max, just giving you a heads up

[@ExplorationGamingESO]

Sorry about that
