Suggestion: make Absorb Health enchant bleed damage

VixxVexx

Glyph of Absorb Magicka: Deals X Magic Damage and recovers Y Magicka.
Glyph of Absorb Stamina: Deals X Physical Damage and recovers Y Stamina.
Glyph of Absorb Health: Deals X Magic Bleed Damage and recovers Y Health.

This patch introduces more Bleed sources on skills like Bloodthirst, Carve, Cutting Dive and Twin Slashes.
I believe this is a good direction, as we now have 4 different damage types for Magicka and Martial.
However, bleed damage is still lacking the source that provides the highest change to proc a status effect, namely weapon enchants.
I think it would fit nicely on the Absorb Health enchant, and we would finally have every damage type available.

I like this concept, fits nicely into a concept of stealing life.

Vaoh

This would be really cool to see and would add actual value to the glyph type.

Ishtharo

Agreed here, I think this would be a fantastic change.

Cool idea, bleed damage is the odd one out on glyph damage otherwise.

Second or whatever, yes please.
As a side note I'm pretty pumped to be able to proc the bleed status effect in realistic scenarios now xD

ESO_Nightingale

sure, doesn't sound bad. gets a yes from me!

Marto

I like this idea!

And while we're at it, add the cooldown on the tooltips.

If they add the "Bleed Damage" glyph people will begin to cry.
Why?
Because of the bleed status effect "hemorrhage" that applies "Minor Mangle" reduces your max health by 10 percent.

I mean not in normal PvE but PVP.
Since you can't easily acquire bleed damage, applying the status effect is low as %5 but if we make it a weapon glyph that deals "Bleed" damage that would %20 at the very least and could even further increased by other effects.

So I don't think people love the idea of running around with %10 less HP all the time!
Since the damage enchantment cooldowns are "4 seconds" and the "hemorrhage" effect lasts for 4 seconds people can always proc the status effect as soon as it ends.

Sure, some status effects aren't as strong as hemorrhaging. However, reducing someone's HP from 35k to 31.5k on top of a small dot is comparable to other status effects. I'd say Sundered and Concussion are stronger.

I personally think Minor Mangle is necessary to counter high health builds. No?

You can already apply mangle with impulse.
20% is fair imho and a great counter to high hp builds.
