Ah thanks man! I didn't know about the overall cap like most others, I was indeed mainly referring to the Draw Essence nerf, it's one of my key spells in my build, but I switched to Sea of Flames and I think I'll be just fine, I'm usually only hitting 2-3 people at a time anyway which is just fine for a continuous ult.

As far as devouring swarm goes, absolutely. The sustain is ridiculous (until a sorc wises up and nullifies you). The killing power is there too, more-so over clouding swarm as the ults (correct me of I'm wrong) stack on each other within the 5 second window as many as you can spam, usually I only hit 2, maybe 3 if I'm down in the middle of a huge zerg, where I think devouring swarm tanks usually are at about a 4 swarm upkeep I'd say assuming the enemy is clueless (which most are) and just attempt to melee you down lol. Typically for me it's just one though, which is why you see me chasing down healers etc in my videos, then invis rolling to a small group of people and building another ult, then going and single targeting someone else down.

I played devouring swarm and it was a blast, but just not my play style. I'm all about the surprise ^^

edit** also yeah i knew about the feeding but it's the 1.5 hour wait that is frustrating :P spoiled vamp is spoiled ^^;
