✭✭✭✭✭OtherAt the moment for 3 reasons: It was an easy way to unlock a black dye early on, to check out the story/lore (how you can be a vampire whilst fighting Molag Bal) and to try out the skills.
My only vampire is my generic evil alt (for doing all kinds of things my other characters won't do) but I may turn other characters in future.PC EU player | She/her/hers | PAWS (Positively Against Wrip-off Stuff) - Say No to Crown Crates!

Rebirthment✭✭✭✭For the passives (More regain and such)I only use it for the dark stalker passive on my Stamblade bow ganker for pvp. Besides that, I don't like how ugly it makes your character and the 10% extra recovery is nothing to write home about.0 -
LaRoseNoire✭✭✭For the passives (More regain and such)Healer and DPS = Stage 2, more regen.
Tank = Stage 3, less damage received at less HP.
Ganker PvP, DB and TG quests = Stage 4, more speed at stealth.Amo la caricia de la noche y el susurro del viento sobre mi cuchilla helada.
J'aime la caresse de la nuit et le frémissemet du vent sur ma dague froide.
I love the touch of the night and the whisper of the wind on my cold dagger.La Rose Noire (Khajit Stamblade): Melee DPS PvE, Ganker PvP.
La Rose Rouge (Dunmer MagDK): Melee DPS PvE, OffTank PvP, Duelist PvP.
La Rose de Sang (Breton Magblade): Healer PvE, Healer PvP.
La Rose Sacreé (Argonian Magplar): Healer PvE, OffTank PvP.
La Rose Toxique (Redguard StamDK): Melee DPS PvE, Tank PvE, OffTank PvP, Duelist PvP.
La Rose en Glace (Breton MagWarden): Tank PvE, CCTank PvP.

✭For the passives (More regain and such)Most of my vamps are dps or will be dps many. So it's for the passives. One healer of mine is a vamp and it's just for the fun of having a vampire argonian templar, as ime the passives don't do much for healers. You should already be managing your mag fine without vamp's regen boost and if my healers die it's 90% of the time because they got one-shotted while I wasn't paying attention to the mechanics or the mobs around me.PC-NA since 2015. Tired and unimpressed.0 -

duendology✭✭✭✭✭OtherOther:
For RP reasons (2 characters) and for the passives (a few more)
Also, I do like the weird ugly looks of vampire in ESO.PC/NA
- Redguard StamBlade dps ["bowtard" crafty girl who likes spinning with daggers too.]
- Breton SorcMag dps [She's got an identity crisis, but I believe in her.]
- Dunmer Templar dps/healer [she's a healer, then again she likes inferno staff too...]
And..
- High Elf SorcMag dps [It's quite possible his daddy was a Nord.]

Slowly, slowly, slowly getting faster!0 -
KRBMMO✭✭✭✭For the lookDefinitely Dark Stalker. I like being able to run around in stealth at all times. Especially for Imperial city and Cyrodil in general.
But I also use Dark stalker in PvE to get through Delves faster.
Edit: oh yeah, and as someone mentioned the Dailies in DB. or when you have a huge bounty and still want to go into town.
Also if you have the CP you can mitigate the fire damage and get a powerful heal on your low level character early even if your class doesn't let you unlock one early on.
So I'll even do vampire on a stam sorc or stamblade.
Then there's the BloodBlade Tank build which I personally find to be pretty cool.Edited by KRBMMO on April 7, 2018 5:54PM0 -
