Nightblade talent calculator, you can find bellow, will help you find the best build to match your playstyle as this, mostly, DPS class. Nightblade is the only class that has a vanish skill that lets you get out of sticky situation or prepare your most devastating attacks. Assassination Nightblades will be all about dealing damage (or buffing themselves to do the most damage). Shadow is the skill line you want to follow if you want to get utility abilities that will make you vanish and do the most damage while surprising your enemies. Siphoning is more about DOTs and leaching health. Great for weakening mobs while staying alive. Whether you use a bow, daggers or other means of dealing damage to your enemies, Nightblade’s skill will help you dispose of them the fastest. Pick and choose skills bellow and save them so others can see your preferred playstyle.

WardenMastering Assassination (insane single target burst)
This build combines everything that makes the Nightblade good:
- insane burst damage
- huge variety of stuns, fears, snares, etc.
- easy kills with assassinations
This build is based on increasing your dmg, decreasing your enemies armor/spell resistance and stunning him followed by insane burst damage and a quick finisher.
(sneak -> ambush -> shadowy disguise -> surprise attack -> blinding flurry)
If your HP is lower than the enemy's use your Ultimate to stun him -> (Ambush) -> blinding flurry -> finish with impale.
In PvP I use Impale over the other morph to make sure that the enemy can't escape.
You might want to remorph this if you want to use this build in PvE.
Switch into the second actionbar for a more defensive stance.
Use shield assault to keep up with ranged-only builds and mass hysteria to keep pesky melees at a distance.
Usual Rotation: Pierce Armor -> swallow soul + heavy attacks until low HP and finish off with impale.
Race:
I highly recommend using Khajiit. Crit chance + Crit damage is something you dont want to miss while playing this build.
Dual Wield Weapons: Dagger+Dagger / Sword+Dagger; again for increased DPS and crit chance.
Armor:
5x Light, 2x Medium for maximum DMG + Crit Chance.
5x Medium, 2x Light for a balanced setup.
