If there was a skin that makes it looks more like skyrim's strain of vampirism, I would consider making more of my characters vampires. Currently I don't want to make my redguard a vampire as his beautiful dark skin becomes a skooma addicts color

Who you callin a skooma addict, I mean sure I have one or tw... Ok I'm a skooma addict.

I love everything about being a vamp! The lore is interesting, the passives are great, and I really, really wanted that dye! Mist form is great for my templar vamp when she is thiev....er, acquiring stuff and needs a quick/safe get-a-way!

There are no drawbacks in PvE.

I hate the way vampire is handled in ESO. I would never want to be vampire and the fact that you're forced to be by this game's rules is stupid.

Still, I don't have any vampires and never will, don't care if I'm gimping myself by doing that.

I did not choose to make my main character a vampire. The game made that choice for me.

My khajhit NB has a backstory about her succumbing to the curse while inlisted in the AD scouting regiment during the war in Cyrodiil.

Roll Dunmer MagDK, dodge dawnbreaker, don’t stand in red, heal through the rest. Teabag the dummy depending on Proc sets to proc. Sit pretty fulla win!

Most people don't like the look. It's just that the passives are so insanely strong that you can't pass them up.

Vampirism in ESO is just bad RPG game design. You're effectively forced into it, removing any choice element.

vHoF last boss has plenty of fire. Outside of dark elfs most reduce their vamp level for that fight. vDSA has some fire where vamps have to step carefully through. Similar for vAS but not as bad. So there is a cost in PvE as well.

Run mist form in vAS, no damage from fire AOE

Never had a desire to go Vamp in this game, doubt I ever will. Well, maybe one day, but 4 years in and have not got the bite yet.

Yes. As I said, it is not as bad in vAS.

I absolutely hate how ESO vamps look i never will use it even if it means i can't do PvP or dungeons..

ArchMikem · May 2018

The better question is "Why didn't you?", considering how common Vampires are.

SugaComa · May 2018

I was curious about all the fuss ... I died more as a vamp so I'm still not convinced it's great.

Lysette · May 2018

Hm, about half do not want to be a vampire but are feeling forced to due to passives - pretty bad design, I would say.

Personal RP. 2 Tanks an Argonian Nightblade and a "Death Knight" Ice Warden. 2 Stamina and 3 Magicka characters are Vampires. 2 Stamina and 2 Tanks are Werewolves. My Templars and a Nature loving Magicka Warden are pure, they do not partake in daedric powers. If there were a Vigilant of Stendarr skill tree (barring Fighter's Guild) my Templars would do that.

I really wish they would have done that. As it stands I find it strikingly odd that the Psijic Order would accept filthy vampire scum in their ranks. Vampirism is by its very nature antithetical to the Order. Even within the Mages Guild it isn't something they would like apart from some of the more dark necromantic elements within the Guild.
