Vampirisim 4 and Blade of Woe problem!

Hi everyone!

I have been getting this problem since i got the Blade of Woe from the brotherhood, i can't keep my dame Vampirisim at level 4 at all. The problem is that both share the same Senergy button which means if the NPC moves or i get lag then the senergy turns in the vampire blood sucking and i lose the vampirisim level, it is happening the whole time and iam so freaking tired of it.

Is there any just ANY way to seperate them?, and if not then Zenimax PLEASE PLEASE either seperate them or just lower the time between Vampirisim 3 and 4 to less than 6 hours...

    It can be annoying every now and then, but it isn't a huge issue. Just don't push the button if you aren't right up next to them. The feed has a minimum distance.

    I agree they need to work on this but not make it less. I stay in Vampirism 3 due to taking less fire damage.

    Oh that wouldn't be a problem if you don't lag at all and if they are still but sadly manytimes that is not the case, i thought the same way but it seems no matter what i do it doesn't work because sometimes even the skill "Blade of Woe " doesn't activate as it should....

    I wouldn't complain if it was my fault and the game was perfect but sadly its not...

    Just need to pay attention. Am vamp on almost all my characters and bed rarely is this an issue when using BoW which has use often.

    There is an icon that shows up indicating if your going to feed or use the BoW and distance is a factor as well as being above the level of the victim so it's easy to avoid once one gets used to it.

    There is an addon that disables this.

    Yes, the way vampirism works currently, there is no reason to be in any stage other than 4. I would never deliberately choose to feed on any NPC. Which tbh is a bit strange for the concept of playing a vampire, but overall this is a fantastic skill line.

    You know you can just spam elusive mist for a bit to get back to stage 4, right?

    Wiat, so the mist lowers the timer or what?

    All vampire abilities reduce the timer by 30 minutes. Including the ultimate.

    The reason why you use mist is because ultimates need charging and vampiric drain requires a target that will eventually die from having their life ripped out of them. Another thing is mist form goes away if you open up your inventory, character panel, map, etc.. allowing you to spam it.

    It's a pain, I still do it occasionally by accident, get closer to use the blade of woe instead of feeding, and check the screen prompt before you click. I noticed that if the NPC isn't on the same level as you, on a slope for example, it will tend to feed even when close, so get on level ground before you move in to blade em.

    Just spam mist for like 20 seconds and you will go from stage 3 to stage 4

    Another addon that may have been mentioned is "Innocent Blade Of Woe". I use it with all my Vamps.

    You can actually cut time off the six hours by using vamp abilities. Every cast removes 30min.

    How often do you lag outside of pvp when not at a crowded dolmen or by busy trader spots during peak hours?

    I kill people all the time using the blade on 2 vamps and never accidentally fed...in fact I find it harder to feed instead of using the blade when I want to keep 1 vamp at stage 2.

    It's not an ideal setup but easily avoided if you pay attention to the button prompts...there's even a sound when either prompt appears so it's hard to miss.
