Change lady thorn monster set

Drakavyn_morelock

So just an idea in the lady thorn castle, the hollow fang dungeon and spindle clutch 2 dungeon there are hemoglobin mobs. What if we had a DD mag set that summoned a hemoglobin pet of some sort. I mean I'd like that for my DD vamps. What do you guys think?

Edit*

So after discussing it I think lady thorn should be changed to something damage based and kind of in keeping with her attack in the dungeon where she fly's at you as you try keep in the moving circle. I propose something like this

1 piece) Adds 833 Spell Critical

2 piece) when you critical strike an enemy summon a hemo-bat to fly towards your target dealing x amount of magic damage to enemy's hit and applying Major Maim for x seconds, decreasing their damage done by x%. This effect can occur once every x seconds.

Just a thought! I think it's better then what they gave us!

While I am not opposed to such an idea per se, if they were going to implement such a set it almost certainly would have come out sometime during the Skyrim chapter. But after an entire year's worth of content focusing heavily on vampires I doubt they get focused on very much again anytime soon. Hallowfang will likely be the closest you're gonna get for the foreseeable future.

Yeah good point, bit gutted the vampire sets that are about now seem to be based around tanking and stam related damage, it makes little sense. I also thought it would fit into the mag night blade aesthetic as well but hey hoo

Why ask for such? Why must all the cool vampiric theme sets involve a stupid little blood ball?

If you want a vampire themed set that summons a pet, why not the blood imps that empower the caster? Or a death hound?

I like your idea, just summoning ANOTHER ball of blood sounds absolutely stupid when there is already so much missing creativity wise when it comes to vamp sets/skills for players.

That's what I was on about the red mobs in the vampire dungeons we have, I didn't mean another blood ball lol I worded it wrong

Drakavyn_morelock

Like the imps or the spirits or spiders or whatever else there was in spindle clutch 2

Oh that's fair then! Sorry, my hatred of vampire sets being reduced to "summon blood ball" irritates me a lot. The lady thorn monster helm should summon a blood knight guardian if anything.

Drakavyn_morelock

I like the death hound idea that would of been sweet. I thought a hemo pet would of fit for a night blades blood magic to tho not just a vampire, cuz we seem to monster sets that fit the play style of sorcs, necros, wardens and DKs but not night blades come to think of it we don't have a set that fits Templar either!

The fact we have just had a year of Vampire themed content, without really getting any specifically Vampire themed sets, seems like a massive missed opportunity to me. It speaks to a lack of imagination.

The very least I would have expected, was a Vampire themed proc set. Do x and spawn a blood fiend/swarm of bats/dire wolf (whatever, a vampire themed proc), to fight by your side for x time with x damage per second, etc. I mean it doesnt even take much imagination to come up with SOMETHING for Vampires.

I probably missed a set or something, feel free to point out any new Vampire themed sets, ta.

To my knowledge the only vampire themed sets we have are crimson twilight (health and bleed dmg), lady thorn (disease dmg and health), hollow fang thirst (mag and healing), vampire lord (mag and vampire stages), vampire cloak (health and dmg mitigation), vampires kiss (health and healing) and you could kinda of count earth gore (mag and healing). After a year of vampire content with out a themed mag dmg set that's a bit gutting considering they've done some stam dmg stuff and vampire is really for mag lol

Yeah I forgot about the monster set and that tanking set, which are new. The others are all old, not particularly Vampiric (just calling it "vampire x" doesnt make it Vampiric) and some of them are awful anyway. Both new sets are nice, ish, if a little underwhelming. Not really what I personally was hoping for, I wanted a proc set, that gave something both visually vampiric and that was dps orientated.

Considering the vampire skill line is purely for mag DPS and not good on healers, tanks, or stam users. The fact that all the new vampire sets are tank themed is very dumb.

Also you're missing Bloodlord, you know, that mythic vampire tanking item.... @Drakavyn_morelock

Aznarb

Yeah dunno, if it's not stupidly in the Tank face 100% of the time hiding from tank player every mechanic like this awful maw of infernal set, why not..

Hound look better as idea imho.

I think they should at least change lady thorn to magic damage tbh

The fact lady thorn isn't magic damage is the most stupidest design choice I've ever seen.

Hopefully they rehash that set to something worth using. Would be cool if they made it a death hound or blood pet summon even a bat swarm would be cool

Drakavyn_morelock

Even making it so you summon a big hemo bat that fly's at the enemy and deals x amount of magic damage would be pretty cool and in keeping with her attack in the dungeon
