Werebear and Vampire Lord skill lines in Skyrim
-
Thevampirenight✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭Yes to Werebears.
Vampire lord can live without that but more vampire abilties added. I would not mind having it either but given how rare it is compared to werebears I'd settle for just werebears.
I did make a thread about this several days or more ago.

Please add Fangs to Vampires. -
TheShadowScout✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Fus No DahI don't see any use in adding "new" skill lines that bring nothing new.
Werebears would have to be very different from werewolves to rate a new skill line... and I don't see how they could be.
If anything, I would want to see them as new flavor for the same skill line! As in, merely cosmetic, much like a certain skin for the warden bear... though they -could- make it a bit more involved as activating an cosmetic unlock, like havbing a seperate infection site and making it the same "lycantropy" skill line in a different animal flavor (ursantropy?) - which of course could be used for a few more options... which then could be added to other DLC regions for people to find... like a weretiger location somewhere in elsweyr, or whatever... but in the end, all of that would be the same skill line with the same "animal attack" skills (well, maaaybe a different transformation ultimate, with different morphs...), just with another set of visuals.
...
Vampire lords are for one kinda already in the game, just not for "our" bloodline... (remember the old vamp in eastmarch?), for another they already covered the "transforming to battle form" shtick with werewolves, and I see little use in doubling it for ESO vampires!
But vampires -could- really use some rework, as I said before:TheShadowScout wrote: »Yeah, there is a lot that could and perhaps should be done to revamp those bloodsucking fiends!
Foremost is the justice system interactions... Necromancing is illegal so we have a mechanic for this... it would only make sense is simply being a vampire would also get the guards riled up, yes? So, make all vampire skills a "criminal act" and also add a "vampire detection chance" per stage, say, 20% at 1, 40% at 2, 80% at 3 and auto at 4, with a "kill on sight" bounty if they find out you're a bloodsucking fiend as the guards come after you with stake and torch, cannot use vendors who would just screech and cower in fear at the "monster" (remember how people reacted to vampires in those rivenspire questings!), etc...
...but also add a "masquerade" skill to toggle that will lower your appearance and thus detection chance by one stage while active - at the cost of one skill slot (meaning, zero chance and completely mortal looking when using that one at stage 1) - just like Count Verandis Ravenwatch obviously is using during the first meeting in Shornhelm!
And also, I would love to see a lot more of the good old vampire clichés brought into ESO vampirism, to make these characters more feel like the classics rather then "just another PC with an extra skill line"...
I would love to see vampires also have a chance of auto-attacking innocents when on stage four. Just a "overwhelming bloodthirst" thing if blood-starved... makes sense, yes? Or perhaps add a "stage five" where this happens, as sign that your vampire has their blood thirst drow for too long and is actually starving now, perhaps with some hefty penalties as well to make it impossible for people to just "park their vampire at S-4" to gain the game benefits without some effort to keep them there or risk sliding into the "bad end" stage...
I would love to see some reason for vampires to shy away from "running water" - it could be a annoyingly reduced swimming speed, or a steady, massive magica drain while swimming... hey, it IS a classic, is it not?
I would love to see a "charm" skill or passive, to allow them to nibble at civilians without it being all crime-ish (as long as noone else sees it, of course). That one -could- also be useful as CC in combat to momentarily daze opponents (although, in most myths this "dominating gaze" only really works if the victim looks deep into the vampires eyes, not exactly something combat-useful...)
I would love to see the vampire feeding to not just -stun- but also damage! In days of blade of woe, it could at least suck away half their victims HP, right? Also, while talking about that... is it not annoying that those two are on the same trigger, and sometimes you use the wrong one if the mob you target moves half a step at the wrong time? Why not combine them both into a "Bite of Woe" that counts for both feedings and assassinations?
I would love to see player vampires use the same skills like common bloodfiends! That shadowy teleport! Definitely should be added to their arsenal, wouldn't you think? Also, bloodfiends... why are those lowly creatures attacking their vampiric superiors? Should they not know their place and realize that this is not a meal, but another undead, and maybe all be "yellow" non-aggro towards player vamps?
I would love to see vampires get a special mount that is -only- useable by characters that are vampires, with some sort of "bat swarm transformation" visuals...
I would love to see vampires stop geting food buff benefits... I mean, should they not be incapable of those, yet get "recently fed" buffs instead? And possibly have the option of making special "vampire" drink recipes with -actual blood- as part of the recipe that gives vampires only special buffs?
I would love to see vampires get a way to store blood in alchemically treated vials for "later use" when feeding at "full" (to sip later for better stage control, or to use in the aforementioned recipes)?
I would love to see vampires have an "vampire sanctuary" where they can gather and sociualize with other vampy players, have vampire-themed gear & furniture vendors, and vampire-themed crafting stations, vampire-themed daily quests (like, "sneak into this nobles home and put the bite towards their nubile daughter to teach them not to mess with the rulers of the night..." or "go into that dwelve and ambush the vampire hunter somewhere in it" or "bring this gift to the vampire lord that lives in this place..." - randomly selected and all over the maps!) and pomme-se-sang NPCs to snack on... they -could- redo and expand the map for the initiation quest for that one, could they not? -
Noxavian✭✭✭✭✭
✭Yes Ro DahSimple question. Would you like to see these two skill lines added to ESO when Skyrim drops. Yes or no?
The people saying no to this have clearly no idea that a vampire/dawnguard/werewolf expansion would sell like hot cakes. They also apparently don't understand that focusing on this lore for a time isn't a bad thing, as it's bound to happen eventually.
Using common sense you'd think these people would want to get this out of the way so people like me stop screeching for it. Because whether you like it or not, vampires and werewolves are a selling point to some people. As this is mainly the only MMO in existence where you can become such as a player. -
Vanos444✭✭✭✭Yes Ro DahThis is what I really want...
New Vampire skill lines.
Note: These skills are only available in Vampire lord form. ( Also, this is just some of mine fanmade ideas that might come to life, if the Devs are not interested to not make another copy paste expansion with generic ideas, and try creating something spicy like below, then it would be great)
Active abilities:
* Mega life drain ( Ult, AoE, Does X damage and healing to the targets in that area )
* 1. Blood corpse explosion ( Available corpse explode for X damage)
* 2. Mind control (disorient them PvP, Control a mob PvE for X sec)
* 3. Devils eyes ( see hidden targets PvP and cannot be stunned when active )
* 4. Vampire Grip ( Grab a mob/player from X distance, stuns them for X sec and drains their resources.)
* 5. Bats ( Able to port out of dangerous situations)
* 6. Hell fire ( A slow moving missile that gradually becomes larger for each or X distance travelled and burns targets with hellfire dot )
* 7. Venom Claw ( Slash a target or targets and infect them with dangerous toxins in their blood vessels, Heal for X amount based on damage done.)
* 8. Blood Dragon Mists ( Form a blood colored mist around you and become invisible for X sec)
* 9. Dark Thunder ( AoE lighting bolt the kills all targets below 5% health)
* 10. Evil rebirth ( Bring a Minion to life from a dead corpse, the minion will follow you till death and assist you, can be used as a sacrifice to regain all resources)
Passive abilities:
*Work in Progress*
Vampire lord are extremely weak against fire and holy spells. Also, during night time their resources regenerates faster and their healing taken is increased based on the targets they kill ( only in the night)
-by mistake, I posted on another thread... -
Ysbriel✭✭✭✭✭Yes Ro DahThey could actually just change the werewolf skill line and add two more transformation options to choose from since Lycanthropy in TES lore isn’t limited to wolves.
When it comes to Vampire Lord, maybe that is something that is limited to the Volkihar Clan, if your read Immortal Blood
https://elderscrolls.fandom.com/wiki/Immortal_Blood you will see that different vampire clans have different abilities and it doesn’t seem we are part of the Volkihar Clan in ESOEdited by Ysbriel on January 14, 2020 10:57AM -
Tommy_The_Gun✭✭✭✭✭
✭✭✭✭✭Werebear could be nice, but only if you could have both ww & wb skill lines unlocked on one character, or switch from ww to wb via daily quest or something.
I posibly do not want to "hunt" for special wb mob that can infect. It is way to much hustle... By the time I do it, WB is already nerfed to the ground.... Also it is paid content so I can not imagine for it to be gated by rng mobs... It would be simple inaccaptable. -
Michaelkeir✭✭✭✭Fus No DahNo to Vampire Lord or Werebear.
Vampire needs to stay different from having a transformation tied to it like werewolf. That's what makes werewolves unique. Vampire should do something else than stealing from the werewolves uniqueness. But I do believe that the Vampire skill line could use a slight change. More active abilities would be nice. In PvE only vampire skill I see used regularly is the drain...and that's mostly on low levels or people who are new to the game and the passives. In PvP it's mostly used for mistform and the stealth movement.
Werebears are nothing more than werewolves but with a different skin. Just allow us access to changing our WW skin in an option or through achievements (no crown store BS) and you have your Werebear. Then you could also change it to the gray or white version of the other werewolf morph skins. Why not even add a reddish or brown fur color too as well as a scared/damaged version. -
Skullstachio✭✭✭✭✭With Vampire Lords, The current Vampire Skill tree Could use a major revamp, and I am certain there is something to be said for additional skills that could only be used at certain vampire stages.Xbox LIVE: Skullstachio

- Post in the Appropriate Area: Please do your best to post threads in the correct area of the forums.

- Report Violations: If you notice that another community member is violating our Code of Conduct, please report the post and leave it at that. Do not reply, try to correct their behavior yourself, or tell them that you reported them. We understand that our community members are generally just trying to be helpful when they do these things, but they only serve to exacerbate the issue more often than not.
- Share Constructive Criticism: We want to hear your thoughts and feedback on The Elder Scrolls Online, negative and positive alike. Please consider how you are posting criticism. If you want to share suggestions or constructive criticism about The Elder Scrolls Online, please tell us about it. It is possible to be negative, respectful, and constructive at the same time.

Eso Forum Community Rules. (Adhere to it at all times.)Below is a brief explanation of the community rules and expectations for specific topics and situations. If you have any questions about the Community Code of Conduct, please email The Elder Scrolls Online Team at [email protected]
Abusive Language and Disruptive Behavior: Zenimax do not tolerate abusive language or disruptive behavior on our forums. This goes for abusive and disruptive comments and behavior that are directed at a ZeniMax Online employee and ESO community members alike. Please remember to be respectful and constructive at all times on the forums, and help Zenimax maintain a friendly and welcoming atmosphere for all.- Advertising: We do not allow advertising on our forums. This includes, but is not limited to advertisements and promotions for the following:
- Outside businesses and services.
- Other games.
- Any venture that results in monetary profit.
- Bashing and Slanderous Comments: We do not permit the bashing of individuals (including ZeniMax employees), groups, or other companies on our forums. We believe that doing so is neither constructive nor in spirit of our game and community.
- Conspiracy Theories and Misinformation: We do not tolerate the deliberate and malicious spreading of false info or conspiracy theories about ZeniMax Online Studios, its game(s), or its employees. This does not include honest mistakes; rather, this rule pertains to those who go out of their way to spread harmful or malicious rumors about ZeniMax Online Studios and its employees, or The Elder Scrolls Online.
- Copyright Infringement: Names and Material: We do not allow copyright-protected names on our forums. Copyright-protected names are typically from well-known original characters in books, games, and movies. We also do not permit discussion about the illegal distribution or use of copyrighted material, such as private game servers or pirated movies, music, and games.
- Cursing and Profanity: Purposefully circumventing our forum profanity filter or otherwise cursing or using profanity is not permitted on our forums. Our forums have a profanity filter in place for the purpose of keeping profanity off our forums — please help us keep the ESO community constructive and profanity-free by respecting that filter.
- Demands and Threats: We encourage you to share feedback, suggestion, and requests with us, but we expect all of our community members to refrain from resorting to demands or threats. We believe that demands and threats are not constructive. Threats of real-life violence, in particular, are something we take very seriously and do not tolerate in the ESO community.
- Deliberately Disobeying a ZeniMax Online Employee: Deliberately disobeying a request or action by a member of the ZeniMax Online Studios/ESO Team is not permitted at any time. As an example, if we close a thread you created and leave an explanation stating why it was closed, you may not re-create the thread.
- Discussing Disciplinary Actions: If you ever have questions or concerns about a disciplinary action or decision we have made on the ESO forums, or wish to appeal a forum warning or infraction you’ve received, we ask that you please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to do so (please specify that you are contacting about a forum-related inquiry or appeal). We are happy to discuss and review specific moderation-related actions with you, but we do not allow discussion of any moderation actions or decisions on our forums. If you have questions or concerns about an in-game disciplinary action, please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to ask about a suspension or ban, and any other support-related feedback. We cannot assist with in-game violations on the forums.
- Flaming: It’s okay to disagree and debate on the official ESO forums, but we do ask that you keep all disagreements civil, constructive, and on-topic. If a discussion gets heated and turns into a debate, remember that you should stick to debating the post and/or thread topic. It is never appropriate to resort to personal comments or jabs about those participating in the thread discussion.
- Goodbye/Quitting Threads: We understand that sometimes people will leave the ESO community, and want to post a “goodbye” or “quitting” thread. Generally, we have found that “goodbye” and “quitting” threads have a tendency to go downhill fast. It is our policy to read the feedback in “goodbye” and “quitting” threads and close them, regardless of whether they are constructive or not.
- Hate Speech: We take the use of hate speech very seriously in the official ESO community, and have a zero tolerance policy. Our definition of hate speech is prejudice or hateful comments, slurs, or statements that promote violence or intolerance toward others because of the following:
- Race.
- Creed.
- Color.
- National Origin.
- Gender.
- Age.
- Disability.
- Sexual Orientation.
- Lifestyle.
- Any other personally identifying factors.
- Impersonation: We do not tolerate impersonation of any kind in the official ESO community, and take impersonation attempts very seriously when they do occur. Impersonation includes using a display name, photos, posts, or any other material with the intent to fool people into believing you are a ZeniMax Online Studios employee, another community member, a celebrity, or anyone else you are not.
- Inappropriate Content and Language: Certain topics and subjects are deemed inappropriate and not permitted on the official ESO forums. Things that we consider inappropriate are usually illegal, extremely volatile or violent, obscene, vulgar, or simply inappropriate for an official game forum such as ours. Inappropriate content on the ESO forums includes, but is not limited to the following:
- Extreme violence
- Illegal substances and activities
- Pirated copyright-protected material
- Pornography and other sexually explicit topics
- Real-world religion and politics
- Tasteless, vulgar, or obscene material
- Malicious Links: We do not tolerate the posting of malicious links on our forums, for any reason. This includes links to pornographic material, key-loggers, and browser hijackers, but also includes links to private game server sites, phishing scams, and sites that sell in-game currencies and power-leveling services.
We greatly appreciate when our community members wish to report a harmful or misleading ESO-related site to us, but please do not do so on the official ESO forums. If you discover a site you want to report to us, please report them at https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/. - Names in Thread Titles: Please refrain from placing the names of ZeniMax Online Studios employees or ESO community members in your thread titles. Directing a thread at a specific individual, or otherwise using a thread to call someone out, is not considered constructive. If you need to get a hold of a specific community member, please send them a private message.
- Naming-and-Shaming: We do not allow posts or threads that are created for the purpose of “naming-and-shaming” other community member(s). “Naming-and-shaming” is the act of creating a post to call out an individual or group by name, and making them the subject of public accusation, ridicule and/or shaming. Generally, naming-and-shaming involves an in-game situation and/or Terms of Service violation, which the ESO Community Team is unable to assist with. A certain amount of rivalry and competitive razzing is healthy for any game community, especially one with PVP elements, but naming-and-shaming goes well beyond that. It typically elevates to a point where the subject feels legitimately harassed. We believe that naming-and-shaming posts and threads can be abused and are very harmful to the community. We also don't feel that publicly calling out or accusing others by name on our forums is in spirit of the game or our community. If you genuinely believe someone has violated our Terms of Service, you should report them in-game via the support interface — do not bring the situation onto the official ESO community forums.
- Personal Information: For the sake of your own identity protection and personal privacy, we ask that you please do not share any personal information in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. This also goes for sharing another community member’s personal information — doing so is not only considered malicious behavior, but it is a violation of our Terms of Service and something we take very seriously.
- Petitions and Protests: We do not allow petitions or protests on our forums. Due to the fact that both promote the use of demands and replies that consist of “/signed” or little else, we feel that neither encourage nor allow for meaningful and constructive discussion. Instead of using a petition or protest, we recommend presenting your thoughts as a request or suggestion so everyone in the community can discuss it.
- Role-Play/Fan Fiction God Modding: We support the fan fiction and role-playing communities on the ESO forum, and ask that you please respect your fellow writers and role-players by not “god modding.” God modding is the act of forcing another community member’s character into a situation they have not agreed to. If you wish to involve another person's character in a story or role-play scenario, please respect that individual’s wishes and get their permission first. Failure to do so is considered “god modding,” and is not allowed on the ESO forums.
- Rude and Insulting Comments/Commentary: We understand that sometimes tempers rise, but it is never acceptable to resort to rude comments and insults. This goes for rude comments and insults directed at other community members, and ZeniMax Online Studios employees alike.
- Selling, Trading, and Sharing Game Accounts: The act of selling, trading, or sharing your ESO account is a violation of our Terms of Service. As such, we also do not allow discussion about selling, trading, or sharing game accounts on our forums.
- Spamming: Please do not post spam on the official The Elder Scrolls Online forums. Below are a few examples of what we define as spamming:
- Posting the same message more than once.
- Posting messages that are nonsensical or have no real content.
- Posting messages or images large enough to disrupt the normal flow of conversation.
- Reposting material that has been removed by a member of the ESO Team.
- Thread Bumping: Please refrain from replying to discussion threads for the sole purpose of “bumping” them. This is considered to be a form of spam because it does not add to the discussion in a constructive or meaningful way. We understand that everyone would like to keep their discussion active and visible, but we encourage you to strive for meaningful and constructive posts instead of posts that consist of nothing more than “Bump!”
- Trolling or Baiting: The act of trolling is defined as something that is created for the intent to provoke conflict, shock others, or to elicit a strong negative or emotional reaction. It’s okay and very normal to disagree with others, and even to debate, but provoking conflict, baiting, inciting, mocking, etc. is never acceptable in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. If you do not have something constructive or meaningful to add to a discussion, we strongly recommend you refrain from posting in that thread, and find another discussion to participate in instead. It is also not constructive or helpful to publicly call out others and accuse them of trolling, or call them a troll—please refrain from doing so. If you genuinely believe someone is trolling, please report the post or thread to the ESO Team, and leave it at that.

We also do not permit discussion about the illegal distribution or use of copyrighted material, such as private game servers or pirated movies, music, and games.
- Cursing and Profanity: Purposefully circumventing our forum profanity filter or otherwise cursing or using profanity is not permitted on our forums. Our forums have a profanity filter in place for the purpose of keeping profanity off our forums — please help us keep the ESO community constructive and profanity-free by respecting that filter.
- Demands and Threats: We encourage you to share feedback, suggestion, and requests with us, but we expect all of our community members to refrain from resorting to demands or threats. We believe that demands and threats are not constructive. Threats of real-life violence, in particular, are something we take very seriously and do not tolerate in the ESO community.
- Deliberately Disobeying a ZeniMax Online Employee: Deliberately disobeying a request or action by a member of the ZeniMax Online Studios/ESO Team is not permitted at any time. As an example, if we close a thread you created and leave an explanation stating why it was closed, you may not re-create the thread.
- Discussing Disciplinary Actions: If you ever have questions or concerns about a disciplinary action or decision we have made on the ESO forums, or wish to appeal a forum warning or infraction you’ve received, we ask that you please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to do so (please specify that you are contacting about a forum-related inquiry or appeal). We are happy to discuss and review specific moderation-related actions with you, but we do not allow discussion of any moderation actions or decisions on our forums. If you have questions or concerns about an in-game disciplinary action, please contact https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/ to ask about a suspension or ban, and any other support-related feedback. We cannot assist with in-game violations on the forums.
- Flaming: It’s okay to disagree and debate on the official ESO forums, but we do ask that you keep all disagreements civil, constructive, and on-topic. If a discussion gets heated and turns into a debate, remember that you should stick to debating the post and/or thread topic. It is never appropriate to resort to personal comments or jabs about those participating in the thread discussion.
- Goodbye/Quitting Threads: We understand that sometimes people will leave the ESO community, and want to post a “goodbye” or “quitting” thread. Generally, we have found that “goodbye” and “quitting” threads have a tendency to go downhill fast. It is our policy to read the feedback in “goodbye” and “quitting” threads and close them, regardless of whether they are constructive or not.
- Hate Speech: We take the use of hate speech very seriously in the official ESO community, and have a zero tolerance policy. Our definition of hate speech is prejudice or hateful comments, slurs, or statements that promote violence or intolerance toward others because of the following:
- Race.
- Creed.
- Color.
- National Origin.
- Gender.
- Age.
- Disability.
- Sexual Orientation.
- Lifestyle.
- Any other personally identifying factors.
- Impersonation: We do not tolerate impersonation of any kind in the official ESO community, and take impersonation attempts very seriously when they do occur. Impersonation includes using a display name, photos, posts, or any other material with the intent to fool people into believing you are a ZeniMax Online Studios employee, another community member, a celebrity, or anyone else you are not.
- Inappropriate Content and Language: Certain topics and subjects are deemed inappropriate and not permitted on the official ESO forums. Things that we consider inappropriate are usually illegal, extremely volatile or violent, obscene, vulgar, or simply inappropriate for an official game forum such as ours. Inappropriate content on the ESO forums includes, but is not limited to the following:
- Extreme violence
- Illegal substances and activities
- Pirated copyright-protected material
- Pornography and other sexually explicit topics
- Real-world religion and politics
- Tasteless, vulgar, or obscene material
- Malicious Links: We do not tolerate the posting of malicious links on our forums, for any reason. This includes links to pornographic material, key-loggers, and browser hijackers, but also includes links to private game server sites, phishing scams, and sites that sell in-game currencies and power-leveling services.
We greatly appreciate when our community members wish to report a harmful or misleading ESO-related site to us, but please do not do so on the official ESO forums. If you discover a site you want to report to us, please report them at https://help.elderscrollsonline.com/. - Names in Thread Titles: Please refrain from placing the names of ZeniMax Online Studios employees or ESO community members in your thread titles. Directing a thread at a specific individual, or otherwise using a thread to call someone out, is not considered constructive. If you need to get a hold of a specific community member, please send them a private message.
- Naming-and-Shaming: We do not allow posts or threads that are created for the purpose of “naming-and-shaming” other community member(s). “Naming-and-shaming” is the act of creating a post to call out an individual or group by name, and making them the subject of public accusation, ridicule and/or shaming. Generally, naming-and-shaming involves an in-game situation and/or Terms of Service violation, which the ESO Community Team is unable to assist with. A certain amount of rivalry and competitive razzing is healthy for any game community, especially one with PVP elements, but naming-and-shaming goes well beyond that. It typically elevates to a point where the subject feels legitimately harassed. We believe that naming-and-shaming posts and threads can be abused and are very harmful to the community. We also don't feel that publicly calling out or accusing others by name on our forums is in spirit of the game or our community. If you genuinely believe someone has violated our Terms of Service, you should report them in-game via the support interface — do not bring the situation onto the official ESO community forums.
- Personal Information: For the sake of your own identity protection and personal privacy, we ask that you please do not share any personal information in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. This also goes for sharing another community member’s personal information — doing so is not only considered malicious behavior, but it is a violation of our Terms of Service and something we take very seriously.
- Petitions and Protests: We do not allow petitions or protests on our forums. Due to the fact that both promote the use of demands and replies that consist of “/signed” or little else, we feel that neither encourage nor allow for meaningful and constructive discussion. Instead of using a petition or protest, we recommend presenting your thoughts as a request or suggestion so everyone in the community can discuss it.
- Role-Play/Fan Fiction God Modding: We support the fan fiction and role-playing communities on the ESO forum, and ask that you please respect your fellow writers and role-players by not “god modding.” God modding is the act of forcing another community member’s character into a situation they have not agreed to. If you wish to involve another person's character in a story or role-play scenario, please respect that individual’s wishes and get their permission first. Failure to do so is considered “god modding,” and is not allowed on the ESO forums.
- Rude and Insulting Comments/Commentary: We understand that sometimes tempers rise, but it is never acceptable to resort to rude comments and insults. This goes for rude comments and insults directed at other community members, and ZeniMax Online Studios employees alike.
- Selling, Trading, and Sharing Game Accounts: The act of selling, trading, or sharing your ESO account is a violation of our Terms of Service. As such, we also do not allow discussion about selling, trading, or sharing game accounts on our forums.
- Spamming: Please do not post spam on the official The Elder Scrolls Online forums. Below are a few examples of what we define as spamming:
- Posting the same message more than once.
- Posting messages that are nonsensical or have no real content.
- Posting messages or images large enough to disrupt the normal flow of conversation.
- Reposting material that has been removed by a member of the ESO Team.
- Thread Bumping: Please refrain from replying to discussion threads for the sole purpose of “bumping” them. This is considered to be a form of spam because it does not add to the discussion in a constructive or meaningful way. We understand that everyone would like to keep their discussion active and visible, but we encourage you to strive for meaningful and constructive posts instead of posts that consist of nothing more than “Bump!”
- Trolling or Baiting: The act of trolling is defined as something that is created for the intent to provoke conflict, shock others, or to elicit a strong negative or emotional reaction. It’s okay and very normal to disagree with others, and even to debate, but provoking conflict, baiting, inciting, mocking, etc. is never acceptable in the official The Elder Scrolls Online community. If you do not have something constructive or meaningful to add to a discussion, we strongly recommend you refrain from posting in that thread, and find another discussion to participate in instead. It is also not constructive or helpful to publicly call out others and accuse them of trolling, or call them a troll—please refrain from doing so. If you genuinely believe someone is trolling, please report the post or thread to the ESO Team, and leave it at that.

Rampeal✭✭✭✭Yes Ro DahWell the process of becoming a pure blood is being drained of all your blood and being turned by a pure blood.
Since Lamae Bal is the first and strongest vampire and turned us this is no reason why the player characters can't be a vampire lord, Since Harkon who is much weaker and weak against the sun(Lamae is not) turns the player in skyrim and he can use Vampire lord with no issues or blessing from molag bal -

No.
Currently werewolf and vamps are very weak... better trying to balance themSarcasm is something too serious to be taken lightly

Chrysa1is✭✭✭✭✭Vampires don't need any new skills or passives. Just change vampires appearance to make then look like vampire.
If a skill needs to be changed, then it needs to be the ult. The ult should turn you into a vampire lord AND do bat swarm. Being a vampire lord gives you increased mag recovery etc. Similar to ww.Edited by Chrysa1is on January 14, 2020 3:13PMBlade of the Dark Moon - Imperial Nightblade

✭✭Fus No DahI wouldn't mind them updating/adding to the current vampire and werewolf lines, but not at the expense of some other potential skill lines. As already posted, new Vampire Lord or Werebear doesn't add anything new. Tweaking the current skill lines would be fine.
I'd rather see a new skill line, such as perhaps a bard. I dunno what else, unless we could learn a few basic shouts - nothing overpowering, but on the level of what Ulfric was able to attain. Or perhaps something associated with the Mages College in Winterhold, but we already have the Psijic skill line. -

You seemed to of forgotten how you get the blessing in Skyrim. A vampire lord can make another a vampire lord, it doesn't need the consent or blessing straight from Molag Bal. So nope, players can still become vampire lords. Try again. (: -

No other MMOs does vampires/werewolves like this.
So how about you go play another game if you don't like vampires/werewolves/hunter groups being a pretty big part of ES lore. -
Matthew_Galvanus✭✭✭✭✭Fus No Dahwerebears should be an alternate skin for lycanthropy, not its own line.
Vampires just need a rework so they are used for more than a minor Magicka regen buff, but vampire lord is not necessary, unless it replaced the current vampire ult as a transformation that empowered all your abilities and passives.
