it's creating too much of an imbalance between different mag builds too, certain classes have no passive healing (necro) so they can't sustain it like other classes can without slotting and using a heal. i posted this like first week of PTS but no one listened and now a few classes are way way way ahead of others, magcro is really only welcome for major vuln, otherwise it'd be mostly trash.

you dont need any healing to parse with b4b as a necro or magden. their rotation has so many other things theyre doing that spammables takes a major back seat and they passively regen enough health to use it without heals.

also, you guys are still forgetting that b4b isnt any stronger than any other spammable for trials since healers keep your hp at 100% anyways. the only advantage it gives is muchc easier to sustain rotation, which is a clear indicator that nobody likes having to micromanage their resource in pve

youre all just looking at dummy humpers and screaming bloody murder because of one niche scenario that literally never happens to that degree anywhere else in the game

Correct me if I'm wrong, but swallow soul is priced along the single target spammable budget and bfb has a higher base tooltip than it at full hp.

Slightly. But BfB's main draw really is it being "free".

Yes I'm aware of that, I was just addressing his comment saying that bfb isnt any stronger than other spammable because healers keep you topped off regardless, implying that bfb at 100 percent hp is akin to standard spammables where in truth at max hp it actually does have a higher tooltip. The sustain benefits are the core attraction, but its higher raw tooltip is a cherry on top.

congratulations on getting a skill that wasnt overperforming in real gameplay nerfed. truly the heroes the game deserves

Why should anyone play a pure vampire build when the only ability thats worth anything is blood for blood?

We're just lucky blood for blood isn't also garbage.

[Edited for rude content]

Unfortunately it's about to be garbage as well. Per patch notes from PTS:
Blood for Blood (morph):
Decreased the execute multiplier on this morph to 60%, down from 100%.
This ability now ranks up in 5% execute scaling damage per rank, rather than scaling in 1.1% damage per rank.
After casting this ability, you cannot be healed by allies for 5 seconds.

As for only being able to use vampire skills on a vampire bar because werewolf has that issue, a person has to shift forms to become a werewolf to get those extraordinary (and OP) abilities, and they have to continue eating (and stop using abilities) to keep that form. A vampire is ALWAYS a vampire. It would be ridiculous to allow a werewolf to have ww abilities outside of their form. It would be ridiculous to force a vampire to only be able to use their abilities on a vampire bar. Silly idea.
