Thanks for checking out this collection of Magicka Nightblade PVE Builds for the Flames of Ambition DLC, for The Elder Scrolls Online.
Here, with the help of Saligia, we showcase two strong Magicka Nightblade Builds. There is a mix of ranged and melee, and with a rotation that works perfectly with Mechanical Acuity, and equally well with other setups too.

Setup 1 - 5x Acuity (Inferno Front Bar), 5x Siroria, 2x Zaan, Maelstrom Inferno Staff
CMX Parse - imgur.com/a/WIq9Da3
CMX Build - imgur.com/a/a4ZErHX
Top 4 Blue CP Slottables - Deadly Aim, Thaumaturge, Fighting Finesse, Backstabber
Static Rotation (slot inner light instead of degeneration for this):
Static rotation
Start:
- Dark Shades - Siphoning Attacks
- Merciless Resolve
- Barbed Trap
Repeat:
- Unstable Wall of Elements - Twisting Path - Shade/Trap
- Crippling Grasp - Spam/Incap - Bow Proc (Ideally you'll want Acuity to proc on this line every other rotation)
- Spam x5 - Bow Proc
Spam = Elemental Weapon (Alternative Spammables include the Vampire Spammable, Swallow Soul, or Concealed Weapon).
Maintain skills at 25% health (or ensure they're up one last time in shorter fights) - Barbed Trap, Twisting Path, Unstable Wall of Elements, Dark Shades. Spam Impale
If you want to use degeneration, then cast it after crippling grasp, and delay the incap by one.

![ESO - [MC] - vHOF Pinnacle Factotum - 2:03 Fight - LikΕya - Magblade - Wolfhunter](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/s3wLEDoezcY/mqdefault.jpg "ESO - [MC] - vHOF Pinnacle Factotum - 2:03 Fight - LikΕya - Magblade - Wolfhunter
A fight from 2nd Boss in vHOF, sort of close to perfect but not quite, from a team perspective. Since I was the only Magicka DD that stayed downstairs the whole time, it was my role to kill the conduits (with a little help from others). Pretty bad conduit RNG in this fight, sometimes it spawns right underneath the boss, sometimes on the other side of the map (it was the case every time in this fight).
Id imagine the top groups will soon change the way they do this boss during this patch.
I didnt manage to save this exact parse, but I have a Combat Metrics Parse from a different fight where I do the same role (60.4k/53.3k) - https://i.imgur.com/itkVVoL.png
Build for this fight (Note: I swapped between Shock and Absorb Magicka Glyph on Backbar) https://i.imgur.com/dwO6qI7.png
