What do you think about vampires in Cyrodiil as of after patch 1.07?
If you comment, say whether you are a vampire or not and how you voted. I'm not a vamp (yet). Voted no opinion.

It pigeon holes classes that are forced to become vampires or werewolves.
While that does not really help anyways, since noticing a vamp is not easy in the first place... so why would a person use a silver bolt on someone they are not sure is a vamp or not in the heat of battle?
So if a vamps weakness is silver bolt and they are difficult to identify, then its better to be a vamp... but ofc, that is pigeon holing, and should be addressed.
I prefer a more balanced system that allows people to choose different viable options, then have actual viable counters as well.

I play a Temp healer for my guild in PvP, so I don't know much about it from a combat point of view. I try to stay back and heal. But I do know that VR10 all vamp gank squads can be tough to deal with.
I brought it up because a bunch of my guild were complaining about vamps being OP the other night before the patch. We only have a couple of vamps in our guild, but that number will grow, probably.
It seems like you would kind of be gimped having to slot silver bullet and maybe evil hunter for those cases when you come up against vamps, instead of your other skills which are more useful against non-vamps.
Anyone test whether Devouring Swarm still heals you while in Mist Form?
My main is a vamp but only for the self heal and passives. I may toss Mist and Bats on my ranged bar for evac purposes but I'm very happy about the changes so far.
All in all I'm finding that maintaining Stage 1 Vampirism is a pretty big pain in the ass. If they want us to maintain stage 1 they should either a) Lengthen the time that you need to feed in stage 1 to an hour or two, or b) let us feed on animals and such.
Even Lestat ate rats from time to time...
The above is my personal opinion. Anyone displaying a view contrary to my opinion is obviously WRONG and should STHU. (neener neener)
