DK Dragon blood change

Dragon blood now heals based on 33% of missing magicka instead of health? What? How is this beneficial at all?

So if your at full magicka, and a night blade gank you from stealth you can't heal because your magicka is still full.... wow... lol what a fix... *rolls eyes*

    The crit possibility isnt good because 99% of solo/smallscale magicka dk's need to wear heavy armor, resulting in low crit... yay

    So let's look at the math here. Let's say you're running 45k magika and have 5k mag left. That's 40k missing magika or 13,333 in healing before battle spirit. With battle spirit we're talking about a 6700 heal.

    While that's enough, now that it can crit, it requires putting yourself into pretty dire circumstances. I think Tava's will be more popular now since it lets you run less overall regen since you're relying on battle roar.

    The fact that it crits and is now based off a larger resource pool (Magicka instead of HP) may make it a viable heal, one that can be used after a while in combat when you've spent most of your magicka

    I assume it is the magicka before the cast of CDB. Is that the case? Obviously, after would be more awesome.

    Unless it uses the post-cast magicka.

    Otherwise, cast something else first.

    Why couldnt they just make dragon blood heal for a certain amount instead of just changing the resource it comes off of, i hope this isnt put into the live server because its not helping dks healing whatsoever. The idea of it being able to crit is a good idea but making it heal 33% of your missing magicka is stupid.
