Exsanguinate(Dagger?)
The theme is well thought out and presented. However, the studio has never shown realistic bleeding or blood. Perhaps life force instead of blood? I am not sure how life force would be visualized.

Thanks. That’s pretty good for me since I’m half asleep. XD
As for blood. Well, it doesn’t have to be like crimson red or anything. It could be a red glow in the vines moving into your arm. And its not like GW2 has no blood. It does have a bit, some necromancer animations as well as skills that cause bleeding have been shown to have a bit of a red blood animation to them. It is a Teen game so they could get away with it without a problem. I wouldn’t expect them to make a blood fountain.
Life force generally takes the appearance of green floating orbs. That aside i do like the concept. I’ve been waiting for AN to come out with a dark/necro themed scepter but an idea like this might make me craft a dagger too. Time will tell. I could see a slight red blood mist around the wrists and blood puddles when walking.
lol, for half asleep nice word choice. +1 there you do not exsanguinate often.
I like your idea, but also have reservations that ANet would probably shy away from something too graphic. Your concept of it meddling into the player itself could be conceptualized in some form to represent that its feeding off the player that is using it though.

I would be all for a darker themed serious Dagger such as this idea.
Leeches could be used to reference blood without showing blood. The dagger’s handle could be an open leech’s mouth that the player puts their hand inside, the mouth closing over the hand. Leeches could even slither up the arm and attach themselves. Excuse me, I have to go shudder.

Um…no, no, no no, not the same image at all lol. You, stay away from Legendary designs.

I can’t. They’re delicious.
Smaller leeches could emerge from the player instead of, or with, the leeches emerging from the dagger. I don’t think stepping blood would work well . That would be a lot of blood to show and if your weapon is a colony of leeches, I would train them to be tidy eaters. Blood demanded by magic would rise in drops from the player, looking like a slow rain.
The dagger could be a beating heart instead. I would give the arteries and veins teeth and barbs.

There already is one of these. It’s a focus, the “Bloodseeker.” It’s kind of a small Bloodstone Shard, similar to the ones at the end of Arah P4.

that’s not even remotely the same thing.
