Description
Kunoichi is a Stamina Nightblade Gank PVP Build, perfect for open world gameplay in Cyrodiil and the Imperial City.
This is a Stamina Nightblade Melee Gank PVP Build that is focusing on boosting your damage in order to execute your target fast.
Kunoichi is not a build for prolonged, “fair” fights. Pick your targets, finish them and escape.
If you are looking for a Bow Gank Build take a look at Arbalest.
For a strong, brawler type, Stamina Nightblade PVP Build take a look at my Elusive Warrior.
If you are a new player, you can take a look at my Nightblade Beginner Guide.
You can find more Builds in the Nightblade Builds page.
