Instructions
When scrolling through the Factions campaign skills and some of the GuildWiki builds I came up with the idea of a Forest Vampire with Julenal. Originally we ment the FV build to be used in GvG or Hero's Ascent, but later I decided to test it in regular PvE. It turned out to be a success as 1-2 FVs can easily complete any mission and bonus, sometimes utilizing henchmen.

The build is very easy to master. Close in using one of the speed boosts if needed and start spamming Vampiric Bite and Touch on your target. If the target starts running away, switch target or use a speed boost. When you have spent ~20 energy, use Offering of Blood unless your health is low and continue spamming the touch skills. Use OoB again whenever it recharges, but make sure that you do not kill yourself with it. If you take a lot of damage from warriors and rangers use Whirling Defense and retreat if you run out of energy while you do not have enough health to use OoB.

See User:Gem/Builds/Team:Forest Vampires for the PvP team build.
