Vampirism on magsorc

For those who run vampire for accelerating drain what stage do you use? Never played as vampire but that skill looks interesting. Thanks

Vampire Stage increases naturally over time but also every time you use a Vampire ability, so if you're using Drain you'll always be at stage 4; unless you're constantly consuming Double Bloody Mara's to reset your stage to stage 2 which could get very expensive or you're constantly feeding off NPCs which I just remembered.

Regardless in theory you always want to be at Stage 2 so you get your good passives while minimizing your negative passives which increase in Stages 3 and 4.

That's the cheapest consumable to lower the stages?

It's the only one. If it's too expensive for you, you can also feed on NPCs.

Pogues

it's not too expensive but its for pvp and every 12 casts i need to chug another... just getting the facts thank you

why vamp drain on a sorc? Where are you getting the bar space?

Just trying different things. Front bar meteor, curse, crushing, frags, pet, drain. Back bar temporal, dark conversion, boundless, hardened ward, pet, ball of lightning.... I'm no expert obviously

Just change ball to streak and use that as your cc frontbar, it goes through block and it aoe.
