Did someone at ZOS forget that by making undeath active at all times that Vampires would no longer have a Stage 3 passive, what is the point of being stage 3 now?
That is rather inconsistent, it would be nice if Stage 3 did something.

About time ZOS released a survival system to the game that only effects Non-Vampires, if Vampires have to drink blood why don't mortals need to drink water? that would be a much needed buff for Vampires don't you think, would only seem fair.Edited by TX12001rwb17_ESO on July 8, 2024 9:54PM2 -

✭Feels like a buff to non hp or shield stackers really. Now I don't need to go stage 3. I get hp regen, less flame damage, less cost all at stage 2.
Eviscerate still does magic damage and not bleed for some insane reason. Let alone the rest of the blood suckers skills.Here $15, goat mount please. Not gambling or paying 45 : lol :
20% base speed for high ping players.
Streak moves you faster then speed cap.
Khajiit has the best damage passive in the game, lol 12%. Insane.1 -

Surely you realize that decision was specifically made for player convenience, just like they also decided to change the vampire blood drinking mechanic from lowering vampirism, to increasing it instead, which also went against the established lore at the time.
I just found it somewhat funny how you used the vampire blood drinking mechanic as an argument for implementing an inconvenience mechanic for non-vamps, as a reaction to a well deserved nerf that was long overdue.

We are still Vampires of the original and strongest bloodline, why do you assume they would be weak to sunlight like lesser clans?0 -

I have to absolutely agree with some of this. The most glaring thing lore wise is how do bloodfiends even happen? as we drink blood it should reduce our stages causing us to look normal so we can blend in with sociality and those who dont drink blood end up looking more like monsters and in time would turn into bloodfiends. thats how the process is suppose to go for vampires. @ZOS_Kevin could you please ring up the developers about this extremely important lore bit?Guild master of Darkness of Sanguinaris.

Blackrim✭✭✭Everything past Stage 1 needs a scaling buff much like how the negatives debuffs scale to stage 4.2

You mean Oblivion Vampires where they got a +20 buff in many of their physical stats?1 -

✭✭✭✭✭Be nice if the passive did something in order to make stage 3 worth it.... maybe.... a damage boost to vampire abilities? Nothing too strong, but maybe like a 5% damage boost to vampire abilities?
A healing received buff might also be handy because I know it'll buff Blood Mist and Vampiric Drain slightly. Vampires playing into the kit already can't be healed by outside sources so the healing received would mostly be coming from them.
Tie the buff on the passive to stage 3 so it requires taking the penalties of stage 3 or 4 to take advantage of.Edited by Vevvev on July 9, 2024 1:15AMPC NA - Ceyanna Ashton - Breton Vampire MagDK1
