How to Play Nightblade: Full Class Guide | Gameplay Tips & Strategy | The Elder Scrolls: BotSE
This is an early-access video for Patreon members as a way of saying thank you, so you can watch it here first. This video will be made public on YouTube at a later date.
In this video, I walk through how to play the Nightblade in The Elder Scrolls: Betrayal of the Second Era, covering class abilities, how to upgrade to master, stat allocation, racial synergy, starting and additional skill lines, and practical gameplay strategy. I also share how I approach Nightblade in solo Expert campaigns, including positioning, Stealth management, and more. This isn’t meant to be the only way to build the class, but rather a guide to help you understand how Nightblade functions and what makes it effective at the table.

Hey Daniel, love your Videos! I just recently found you and I'm obsessed :D. Waiting for BotSE to release in German soon, your videos make the waiting game easier!
Hi Pascal, thank you for joining in, really appreciate the support! 😊 Could you try refreshing and checking again? I keep early-access videos as “Unlisted”, and sometimes YouTube glitches a bit. I’ve checked on my end and it should be working now!
You always make it look so easy. I’d be toast in 2 turns! Any equipment you’d recommend for the build?
Haha, no worries! 😃 I’d say specific item synergies depend on the race. For Breton, you’d really want to prioritise weapons for their Overtax effects, like Mahogany Restoration Staff, Oak Lightning Staff, or Quicksilver Dagger. For any race that isn’t Wood Elf, anything that gives Stealth can be a nice backup option, like Imitation Elf Ears. Potion of Heroism can also help in the early game to compensate for the lack of direct damage. But overall, I’d still say this build is relatively item-independent
