Blood Mage
Vampire Subclass · Unlocks at Level 20
Overview & Playstyle
Stack INT and life steal. Open PvP with Crimson Barrier + Sanguine Ward to absorb burst, then win via drain. In PvE, chain AoE skills for dungeon-clearing speed. The Blood Charge mechanic rewards consistent attacking — never skip an attack even when using defensive turns.
Strengths
- Highest sustained AoE damage in PvE
- Layered shield defense
- Life steal sustain
- Blood Charge passive bonus damage
Weaknesses
- Low STR/DEF — glass cannon in PvP
- Complex rotation vs. pure burst builds
- Poor vs Berserker rage spike
