It’s funny that you don’t get the 6th vapirism rune though… that 6 piece bonus is just such garbage that it’s better to just get additional stats.

The fact alone that you can use your toolbelt heal while in mist form (as of a month ago when I used them last, post Elixir s nerf) makes it far from garbage.

The main problem with 6 piece Vamparism is the unreliability of them triggering. I’ve always suspected that could be helped by stacking vitality to raise the 10% trigger point, but I never tested it because I like my toughness too much.

The class which I have trouble against are condi necros.6th vampirism rune will just help them lock you out IMHO.

Ah, I was pretty close on the build. Got the last 10 trait points wrong though. Thanks for posting it.

On that note though, did you ever consider taking rifle mod instead of protection injection? The additional defence is undoubtedly very beneficial, but an extra 10% damage on attacks you regularly use is also quite significant. I guess maybe it might be better if you’re in a zerg with a frontline to take the brunt of the attacks while you hang back and shoot stuff, whereas the protection is more worth it for roaming since you never know when you’ll get sneak attacked.

I was expecting it to have more toughness, but I guess the life stealing is what gives it the sustain it demonstrates in the video.

protection injection is too nice to give up for just 10% of rifle damage imo. As it is , I really need the extra defence with my low toughness and it allows some room for error when fighting cc warriors and chain fearing necros or and heavy cc users.
And yes, 6th vampirism rune is horrible.
