Poison mist change for Vampire

BloodStorm · April 2015

I am thinking possibly a Blood\Sanguine Mist morph to replace it. A fun alternative would be you take 75% reduced damage and receive no healing like the elusive mist morph but now Sanguine mist heals 2 nearby allies for 5-10%% health instantly. Another option could be Sanguine mist heals you 75% of your health over 3.5 seconds and drains 40% of your magicka and stamina. Any other Ideas would be interesting to hear.

Both interesting. It's hard to think of many changes for it a healing mist is the only other option, mist can only do so much heh :P

How useful actually is poison mist? Personally I've only ever used elusive mist.

Would be nice if they changed it back so we can sprint in mist form not sure why they ever removed that, you can sprint with all the other movement skills.

Healing 75% of your own health? How about... no?

Since I'm no vampire, what ability or morph are you actually trying to replace? I.e. what are the current stats?

Cool ideas, but imo all i needs is to actually do damage.
Some sort of poison build would be cool, so maybe it could also allow certain skills, a little like the sorc overload bar.
It could be a stamina morph that does poison aoe and also boosts your weapon attacks with poison damage.

@Balael it does almost no damage, and all the while all you can do is stand there. It's very close to useless.

Ya the damage is horrible, haha. I would love a damage version of it. I have wanted to make a pure Vampire build since beta. I love invigorating drain but I really want another useful Vampire ability for damage or healing. If poison mist did around same damage as other AoEs in the game that would make it really fun. The damage reduction could be reduced in mist form down to 35% or so. You cannot heal in mist form so it seems like a good balance. Honestly a Vampire passive that boosted magicka, health, damage or something for more Vampire abilites on a skill bar would be nice also. I like elusive mist but want more reason to keep mist forms on bars for purist Vampire builds , haha .
