Maintenance for the week of April 6:
• PC/Mac: No maintenance – April 6

Hey ESO DEVS, did we really need a set that works only with two-ish skills?

There are only 3 vampire skills in the game right now:

Elusive mist used as escape/mobility option mostly.
Drain essence: Hard CC + ulti gen/speed.
Bats: Ulti that deals damage and heals.

So we have a new set that adds 400 spell power for 2 skills? YAYYYYY what a good idea.
But not one that adds 400 spell power for raw magicka damage like the automaton set does for physical damage?

Can we have someone over there that even plays magicka builds OR vampires?

    Kinda hoping it means they intend to add more abilities to the vampire skill line in the future. Not holding my breath though.

    As long as we have gap closer snares, elusive mist will be basically useless considering current meta is stamina. While Drain Essence is great for ulti regen its distance is pretty short making it really risky. Bat swarm being the only useful skill in the tree and I personally wouldnt use a whole set for 1 ultimate.
    If you want me to reply to your comment type @Ankael07 in it.

    I guess you could build some kind of minmax batswarm damage build? Does that cost reduction apply to the ultimate cost? If it does apply to ultimate cost, how does it stack with the Sorc passive power stone? You could end up with a really cheap hard hitting batswarm.

    There are two sets right now that reduce any ulti cost by much more AND can be combined.

    All ulti reductions stack, afaik. Alteration Mastery, Dragonguard, etc.

    We had really cheap, hard hitting batswarms in the past. Pls don't want back.

    You think that's bad? Look at Oblivion's Foe, which boosts the damage of only Soul Trap and its morphs.

    That 5% reduction isnt bring anything back, I can assure you of that

    Best Zenimax troll ever.

    They actually changed it to that quite recently because not enough people were using the old version. It's not like it's 1 trait to craft either and it doesn't effect Soul Strike xD

    It's like the just accepted every idea that came to mind no matter how OP or Worthless it was.

    How about increase casters spell damage by 388 for a 4-6 seconds upon activation of Vamp line skill. If you only get to use it when your ult is up or after spending SO much for mist then even that seem under powered.

    Would be nice if it increase resistance to Fire and/or Fighters Guild skills. Dawn Breaker hurts.

    I dunno old school days of infonite batswarm was exactly what you said you wouldn't do god they'd stack bastion of the dragon and final stage vamp for limitless spammage now add in vamp lord and could be sick as hell on a sorc ultimate cost reduction + bastion + vampire lort have mercy lol

    I'm done with this game because of ZOS pushing us into Vengeance, because they don't know how to fix Cyrodiil.
