One Bar Heavy Attack Nightblade DPS - Nachtklinge Baue PvE - ESO

One Bar Heavy Attack Nightblade DPS Build for ESO Update 50. This is a Heavy Attack Blade setup where Lightning Staff Heavy Attacks do the main work, with the Nightblade Class Masteries An Eye for Exploitation and Above and Beyond adding a lot of damage to those Heavy Attacks.

The Oakensoul setup is the practical version because it is less reliant on teammates. The No Oakensoul (with Rakkhat ) setup is stronger, but it requires more from your team to perform well.

The Oakensoul setup does 131.9k DPS. With Rakkhat setup, parsed 139.8k DPS on the 21 million HP Iron Atronach trial dummy.

SKILLS

• Unstable Wall of Elements - A ground DoT which explodes at the end, which can be triggered early by recasting the ability, making it a decent AoE spammable. Concussed enemies standing inside of it will be debuffed with Off Balance which increases their damage taken from Heavy Attacks by 70%, and they'll be Concussed thanks to the Shock enchant on your weapon.
• Inner Light - an ability that will passively increase your Max Magicka by 7%. 5% from the ability itself and 2% from the Magicka Controller passive
• Merciless Resolve - an ability that will cause your Light and Heavy Attacks to generate stacks. You can spend 5 stacks to fire a powerful arrow that also heals you if you're in Melee range. It also grants you Major Savagery and Major Prophecy
• Healthy Offering - a single target heal. You need a Siphoning ability in this slot to trigger the Magicka Flood passive. This is an extremely minimal DPS loss compared to a DoT like Debilitate , because the rotation is too busy and you wouldn't be able to cast Debilitate very often anyway.
• Shadowy Disguise - an ability that will increase your damage done by 15% for 10 seconds after being cast. It also triggers Strike from the Shadows
• Soul Harvest - a cheap ultimate that increases target's damage taken from you by 20%. Having it slotted will also cause you to regain 10 Ultimate whenever you deal a final blow against an enemy

SITUATIONAL SKILLS                            

If you need to slot something situational, replace Inner Light first, then Healthy Offering

• Debilitate - another Siphoning skill which also triggers Magicka Flood , and can replace Healthy Offering . A 0.5% DPS gain compared to Healthy Offering .
• Elemental Susceptibility - use it as your source of Major Breach whenever you're assigned to mechanics that separate you from your group, like for example portal in the Nahviintaas fight, Reef Hearts in the Reef Guardian fight, bridge in the Taleria fight, etc.
• Resolving Vigor - a self-heal you'll need for some fights

ROTATION                            

• 1. Unstable Wall of Elements
• 2. Soul Harvest whenever it's ready
• 3. Shadowy Disguise
• 4. Merciless Resolve if you have at least 5 stacks
• 5. Debilitate (if slotted instead of Healthy Offering )
