Can we make it so Vampires get a night time cycle buff? And a day time cycle nerf? Lol
So at night they get more sustain of resources and in daytime they just explode in flames and die.
What do you guys think?

Used to exist where they got damage bonuses at night, but was patched out very very early on. Then in Greymoor's rework they patched out the sneak entering buff from being a night only thing to universal.

Really? They had night damage buff?? Wow , was this back in 2014?

The OP request would be great in a one player game. Not sure I'd want it in an mmo. But I haven't touched vampire/werewolf since the rework before Greymoor. For me, the current vampire is too much hassle (I'm lazy).

It would work in an MMO, just take some of their existing weaknesses and make them Daytime only, it would be an outright buff to Vampires by making say the Health recovery nerf only apply in Daytime.

I actually agree with you on that one. Lessening or even outright removing the HP regeneration debuff at night would be very nice. Night time is 2 hours vs daytime's 4 hours so it isn't that long lasting of a buff if people wanna say it's unbalanced.

I have always thought Vampire's should have both benefits and drawbacks at night, but even more drawbacks during the daytime especially with NPC's...it would make them more interesting to play and more uncommon instead of finding one under every rock like you do now.

I just can't help but feel that this being an mmo killed the chances for day/night time buffs for vampires. Going into cyro and dying more or if you go into a trial and you're actively nerfed because its daytime.

I like vampire , and it would be nice if they could rework it so PVE gets some perks and PVP gets some perks , so some buffs will be only in pve and some only in pvp. That may offer a considerable strategy to balance things.
I try to not turn all my toons into vampires lol, cuz for a while I would just make them all vampires and it was many times a role play decision, but so far I think the cons outweigh the pros for most. But they can be great still, they just are a difficult thing to figure out.
Like there was this Imperial Sewer vamp build that xynode gaming made and it was really really nice. Just hard [snip] to make and master I think.
