Vampire Feeding should give Drink Buff

So, I really like where ZoS is going with the vampire changes of requiring certain stages to get the passive buffs. But I'm afraid most people will just stay in their desired stage all the time and forget about the debuffs. Why not give an incentive to feed to make things interesting? My suggestion is to give you a 30 minute Blue level Drink Buff that scales with your level/CP when you feed. This will make you have to make interesting choices between staying in your desired stage and maintaining your drink buff. For those who don't care to make that choice, they can just use regular Blue drinks to maintain a drink buff since you won't be able to have both at the same time. This fits the theme of a vampire where they have to balance their thirst with the level of power they desire.

camilla_noctis✭✭✭Doesn't feeding already make the fire damage not so bad?
I'm really tired of fire damage being the go-to to ignore all vampire stage balance issues. Not that many class abilities use fire, and going up in stage literally only weakens your character EXCEPT in very specific situations like certain dungeons. Even then, powering through with heals is usually sufficient. The incredibly specific situations where the fire vulnerability is a do-or-die thing is not enough to justify the (new) state of the stages.

It's only a buff because it will save you from having to use a blue level drink. Everyone has access to blue level drinks by either crafting it in provisioning or buying it. Heck, make the buff a green level drink then, doesn't change the intent of the suggestion.

But then you lose power as you go back to Stage 1 by making your vampire skills cost more and losing passive skills. Again, the point of the change is to force to you make interesting choices.Edited by Lokryn on May 31, 2016 1:21AM0 -
Lokryn✭✭✭✭this world be a nerf not a buff...
How is it a nerf? You can always eat your own blue or purple drink. Just make the drink buff from feeding not overwrite your current drink.
The goal of the suggestion it not to buff or nerf vampires, it's to make managing the different stages more interesting.Edited by Lokryn on May 31, 2016 1:19AM0
