    People that where using vampire for mist form only where not using vamps has intended, never use mist form myself save for in pvp so that wont be changing less I missed somehtiung. Mist form is a good solid retreat from some players, I mainly use vampire drain when tanking somethings and stage four when sneaking around.

    For all classes in solo PvP, in my bad opinion if you're not running Stage 4 you need to work on your build. The combination of passives is worth several 5 piece sets.

    I run stage four all the time in pvp, all the time oddly, only solo pvp so yeah.

    60%+ says no
    also a lot of players says vampires still have their nich both in PvP and PvE.

    Probably the first time i would be glad to see public poll instead of private.

    Once they removed Mist Form from PvE content (all because of the Trial players) there is no point in being a Vampire outside cosmetic use.

    I just came back to the game again and bought Necromancer while making him a vamp..Will i really be gimping myself going full magicka vamp?

    Yeah. I wouldn't go so far as to say, "gimping," but vampirism isn't doing you many favors.

    I have vampirism because I like the idea of it, the theme, the lore, but play wise it is appalling for PvE. I wouldn't know about PvP.

    It was ruined with Greymoor. The good thing about the Armory coming, I will be able to remove it when I actually want to do battle, and put it back on when I just want to strut about being all gothy.

    What do you mean next patch?

    Don't tell me they are nerfing Vampire again...

    Yes. There have been several nerfs to vampire ever since the Greymoor (supposed vampire chapter) when at launch the community's consensus that vampire was in a very poor state compared to werewolf. Yet the majority of nerfs so far have gone to vampire when compared to werewolf.

    To be fair some players didn't even use Mist Form before, in my case I use Blood for Blood, Sated Fury and Swarming Scion, this "nerf" to mist form changes absolutely nothing, people fail to see that the true strength of Vampirism is offering near limitless sustain afforded by that spammable and no I do not use Pale Order either, there is a perk which does basically the same thing without the drawbacks, the ability to outright ignore mobs who you do not want to waste time dealing with and one of the most powerful ultimate in ESO, I have been saved from gankers countless times because I was able to activate my Ultimate just as they tried to gank me, also no sneak speed penalty is pretty good as well.

    Are you copying me?!? Or just came to the same conclusion those three abilities are great? :lol:

    I had Elusive Mist on my bar for the super rare times in PvE I needed to get out of something bad. Like the lava floor in vVH, the spiders in vMA, navigating the Rink of Frozen Blood, getting to a pool to cleanse the poison in vMA, etc. ZOS said it trivialized such content, but while using it I was taking a ton of damage and hoping I got to safety in time. I've died in it and been saved by it so to see it go is heart breaking.

    I voted no, even though I don't agree with the "after next patch" part of your question.

    As someone who loves healing and loves vampires, sadly vampires stopped being worth the cost to me immediately after the revamp (pun intended) and they slowly having been getting EVEN worse each patch and tweak.

    I agree definitely getting worst over time. They are practically a joke now
