Vampire rework

The vampire rework looks awesome love the blood scion the feeding animation looks amazing it’s something I have wanted for years. All I ask for is the slash skill to have a stamina morph it is a melee skill after all and in Skyrim the vampire slash did poison damage I definitely agree that the other skills should be magic and even the other slash morph magic.

    The Bloodscion is literally a Xivkyn Dreadguard with Wings.

    If they were just going to add wings then why even make you look like a *** Xivkyn Dreaguard which is one of the three polymorphs you can get from the Imperial City Sewer? just keep your regular Vampire appearance but with Wings, the size increase is not necessary.

    Or maybe they could turn you into some kind of blood form similar to that VTM:Bloodlines ability of the Tremere Clan , that would of been better at least.

    After seeing all the videos there are some serious inconsistencies in the look of the vampires. The only thing that is consistent is the abilities.

    Like when I watch DawnWhisper's Video the vampire looks normal in the beginning and gets covered in blood as she feeds.
    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HiqRCaG8XVM&t

    Yet when I watch Xynode's Video he never shows off all the vampire stages, but he does go on how the vampire effects work on skins.
    Starts at 5 minutes, 30 seconds.
    https://youtu.be/RiC-fdgDLZQ?t=510

    But then there is Dottz's video which apparently shows all the stages but it feels.... off.
    Shows off the appearances at 10 minutes, 50 seconds.

    The most off thing of all is that vampire ult....it's so yikes.

    Ah yes, I too love re-skinned necro ults with cardboard cutout cosplay wings that do almost the same exact thing. (Bat swarm = ravenous goliath)

    I just genuinely do not understand how you think it can look awesome. You can't even see any detail on the form it's so dark. The wings are big and gross and are randomly shadow-y.

    That’s the point it’s big it’s shadowy black wings looks like something right out of oblivion I personally like it but everyone has there opinions my point though for this post was about us getting a stamina morph the vampire slash skill.

    True, but you did mention in your original thread that you like the blood scion, so technically it isn't off-topic.

    And the point of the big shadow wings is to look like cardboard cut-outs that don't move or do anything and look like cosplay props? I genuinely fail to see how statue-like, big wings that do not move at all, are a bonus in anyway.

    Don't get me wrong, if they moved around and maybe if you ran they lifted you up off of the ground a tiny bit, then yeah they'd be so sick and cool. But as it stands, they're big, annoying, and do not move in the slightest. Not to mention they don't fit what we've come to learn are vampire lord-like wings. (Granted we arent vampire lords specifically, but still)

    Seriously that transformation is beyond sad. What were they thinking slapping that together.

    Actually now that I think of it having our characters becoming imbued with vampiric power and having vampire lord wings coming out of their back sounds WAY cooler than what is being currently showed off.

    Honestly, this transformation is probably the saddest thing I've seen of ESO since launch. Lets hope the footage was from like, a good while ago and the transformation looks way better by the time the PTS comes around.....


    What /were/ they thinking, exactly? I genuinely want to know the discussions that went down for them to be like: "Yeah, that sounds about right."

    I was prepared for losing the regeneration passive, but increased ability cost as well?

    Guess my vampires will get cured, the new vampires seem to be mainly for RP and adding non-NB gank&run builds to PVP.

    Actually agree with you about the wings I was so excited about the vampire rework I wasn’t paying proper attention to the animation. If the wings moved more than that would be amazing I just hope zos is reading all feedback everyone giving them.
