This just occurred to me, but will 1.3 buff emperors? The new soft caps are really advantageous to them..

My bad math:

2000 magicka => 3209.5
3000 health => 4193
2000 stamina => 3209.5

100 magicka regen => 172.5
40 health regen => 80
100 stamina regen => 172.5

Now this emperor does not have particularly high stats as a non emp, but these numbers look really big buffed. And the regen will make them almost unendingly sustainable.

A soft capped emperor bat swarm:

2419 magicka => 3628.5
129 spell power

Bat swarm hits: 334 magic damage per tick + 10% for resto staff = 367.4 (551.5 crit)

Now we all know that an emp will always be in swarm if they are a vamp, that's allot of punishing damage to be next to one.

Note: this is assuming that the swarm is not scaling off weapon damage, which means it might well hit much harder if it does. At 190 wep damage 438.9 (638 crit).
