Corrupting Bloody Mara Overlooked! ~Gives Stage 4 Vamp AND gives HEALTH RECOVERY~

Cirka

So when vamps were changed, it seems the drink item Corrupting Bloody Mara was over looked. It gives you stage 4 vampire, but also gives you health recovery, yet you can not benefit from health recovery as a stage 4 vampire. Really want to use this item on my vampire, and would LOVE for it to be updated by changing the Health Recovery to something else so it doesn't seem pointless (Because lets be 100% honest here, this IS a vampire drink).

Corrupting Bloody Mara:

Increase Max Magicka by 4620, Max Health by 5051 and Health Recovery by 505 for 2 hours. If you are a vampire, the tainted blood in this drink will corrupt you, increasing your Stage to 4. These effects are scaled based on your level. (6s cooldown)

Now the Vampire skill, FEED.

Allows you to feed on an unsuspecting target, killing them and increasing your Vampire Stage. Higher Stages make you a stronger Vampire at the cost of your humanity. Stages decrease over long periods of time.

Stage 1/2/3/4

Health Recovery: -10%/-30%/-60%/-100%
Flame Damage Taken: +5%/+8%/+13%/+20%
Regular Ability Costs: +3%/+5%/+8%/+12%
Vampire Ability Costs: -6%/-10%/-16%/-24%


Not asking for a crazy vamp change or anything, just a simple fix to something that was most likely over looked (and understandably so).

Thanks for reading and hope this being brought to your attention will cause a change for the betterment of us Vamps!

BiS bistat food if you're using Bright-Throat's Boast. With or without vampirism. It's not just a vampire stage manager.

The -100% less health recovery could be applied somewhere else in the equation.
In ESO thus far there was always a way to build around a limitation, this is not the case anymore.

The -100% is final, might as well stated "drops your health recovery to 0" or "you no longer have any health recovery" no matter how many health recovery multipliers or bonuses you apply.

For example, you can mitigate some of the flame damage taken - racial bonuses, CP, Flame resist glyph.
Here, there's no possible workaround and I personally don't like that design.

The health recovery was added to it to help vampires be at stage 4 and fight back against the health recovery debuff. Why the drink also requires dragon's blood in the ingredients as it was supposed to "super charge" you.

The issue is the fact the drink's health recovery buff is effected by the -100% stage 4 health recovery debuff. If for some reason it was not effected by the stage 4 health recovery debuff or the debuff was set to something like -90% it'd fix the problem this drink has.

I was the crazy person when Greymoor was on the PTS that felt they did that to push us to buy the vampire fountain, but that makes no sense because that means ZOS never intended stage 4 vampirisim to be used.

Doesn't change the fact that its clearly meant to be a vampire drink, of course other builds will/can use it... Same with the WW version, it can be used by anyone clearly, but its still was made for WW's primarily in mind lol.

The juke food that's actually good if you cure your vamp, even ZOS knows vamp is bottom tier.
