Vampire Bonuses/Penalties Combined with Vampire Lord Set

MJ202

Having not played a vampire in ESO before, I created a character with which to experiment and to gain a better understanding of how it works.

The bonuses and penalties for vampirism are:

Stage 1/2/3/4
Reduced Health Recovery: 10%/30%/60%/100%
Additional Flame Damage Taken: 5%/8%/13%/20%
Increased Regular Ability Cost: 6%/10%/16%/24%
Reduced Vampire Ability Cost: 3%/5%/8%/12%

The bonuses and penalties for the Vampire Lord set are:

Stage 1/2/3/4
Additional Flame Damage Taken: 1%/2%/4%/6%
Increased Regular Ability Cost: 1%/2%/4%/6%
Reduced Vampire Ability Cost: 5%/10%/15%/20%

Do the two sets of statistic stack with each other giving the following?

Reduced Health Recovery: 10%/30%/60%/100%
Additional Flame Damage Taken: 6%/10%/17%/26%
Increased Regular Ability Cost: 7%/12%/20%/30%
Reduced Vampire Ability Cost: 8%/15%/23%/32%

If they don’t stack, then how do they combine, or does one take precedence over the other?

These are independent multipliers

Also you have some values wrong for the Feed passive. It's:
Increased Regular Ability Cost: 3%/5%/8%/12%
Reduced Vampire Ability Cost: 6%/10%/16%/24%

With Vampire Lord equipped it would be
Increased Regular Ability Cost: 1%/2%/4%/6%
Reduced Vampire Ability Cost: 5%/10%/15%/20%

As an example here is Perfect Scion IV -
272 ult with stage 0 (?)
256 ult with stage 1
207 ult with stage 4
165 ult with stage 4 + vampire lord 5 pc

I think you were thinking it would be 24% + 20% = 44% which would be 152 ult with stage 4 and the 5 pc set, but this is not the case.

It's a set pretty much intended for roleplay.

The increased cost on non-vampire skills and increased flame damage hinder you more than it helps as you get into anything slightly harder than overland/delves. The cost reduction on vamp skills can be obtained via other cost reductions or regen if that ever was a problem in the first place. Imo Vampire Lord is probably one of the hardest contenders for the absolute worst set in the game unfortunately. You'd be better off using Shapeshifter's Chain even if that is still not the best option if you plan to use the ultimate.

What was done to vampire lord was one of the biggest set assassinations in the history of the game.

Greetings,

After further review we have decided to move this thread to a category we think is more appropriate for this topic.

Thank you for your understanding.
