How about a VAMPIRE HUNTER? (PvP)

In the PvP community there is very little reason to not be a Vampire, to some degree even on Stam based characters. An argument can be made the benefits outweigh the negatives in every category.

I thought a Vampire Hunter would be a great idea. Make it set or a skill line which is a real threat to Vampires damage wise. or even Daedric Glyphs again. The game is best when it is a game of choices, not one Meta that everyone copies. I would even say give it a glow like Imperial Physique.... but I think something like that with the old Sheild Breaker mentality (you know, you sell out to be effective against one meta) would be a really great challenge for the PvP Community

    A vampire hunter set is something they could add in, maybe doing some type of extra damage or a proc that causes you to do extra damage to vampires. As a skill line maybe not since they are not doing a rehash of Dawnguard. But they could do set based on hunting vampires. Which would be just as good so I do support the idea.

    They could even add a werewolf Hunting Set that allows players to deal extra damage to werewolves in humaniod form or werewolf or even add the Call of Hircine Proc forcing player werewolves to transform even if their ultimate is not all the way up or on skill bar to cause them to become vulnerable to an unexpected transformation or in some cases even the set causing that to back fire as they use their wolf form to slay you. So you might even regret using the set. But that is just a idea which would be pretty rad if they could do it and maybe some players might even be more willing to take up Lycanthropy just so they can be effected by the set because they might find it to be a neat feature.

    But for Vampire Hunter. For sure a Set would be the best method there and would be the most friendly way of adding such a thing to the game. It doesn't need to be a skill line.

    Right now unless you are a ganker who needs the sneak bonus or you need mistform there is no reason to be a vampire.

    I'm fairly certain prismatic glyphs of onslaught work on player vampires along with flame damage glyphs and the passives already found in the fighters guild line

    Dawn breakers, and silver bolts both do tons of damage to vampires, if people don't slot them, nothing zos' can do about that.

    As others have said, the Fighters Guild skill line was the vampire/werewolf Hunter skill line. Keyword "Was". Back in the day those skills hit like a truck if you were flagged as a vampire/werewolf. But like always, people complained about being killed often with those skills and felt that their play style should not be punished for playing a monster. So after enough crying Zos in their infinity wisdom nerfed that skill line into the dirt.

    So I don't they'll do another because they wouldn't want to punish a certain play style.

    Ha, punish. Vampires are all reward with easily ignored risk.

    Nah ! The la WW with bleeds and massive heals had its day. It will be interesting that people will just get nom nommmed and die, whether you’re a vamp or not.

    A full fledged plague of the gothic critters would be welcomed for something new to enjoy. >:)
