Talk:Ravenous Gaze

WHY is this elite? -Thomas 13:29, 22 September 2006 (CDT)
 * It can potentally do about 120 life steal with Blood at 16. Think of it like a conditonal Grenth's Balance. It's going to make Blood Necromancers that much harder to kill and that much more deadly. Think about it. Wait till you're inches from death and lash out with it.

 * Even so... It's only about twice as good as Vampiric Gaze, with conditional aspects tied to it.  For regular use, I think this is crap.  However, for spiking, it's potentially VERY lethal.  A 1 second, armour + prot spirit ignoring spike that is strong enough to kill with just 4 people on most targets?  THAT is scary.  And while you have to be a little below 50% of your max health, Blood Magic DOES house Demonic Flesh to make that amount of health not as risky to be at.  Perhaps this will make a replacement for Feast of Corruption in Blood Spike. Merengue 23:27, 22 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Can't forget Blood Renewal. Yeah, it's good. --Crazytreeboy 23:52, 22 September 2006 (CDT)
 * It's not good in my books. If you try to wait till you're lower than 50%, you'd be spikebait long time before. ~LightningHell
 * I sitll support it, considering it's the only non-hex Life Steal Blood Elite. We've been looooong over-due for one. Alt F Four 03:12, 24 September 2006 (CDT)
 * So, is there a reliable way to sac 75% of your life in a sec or 2? --Midnight08 08:54, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
 * No, but is there a quick and reliable way for a Necromancer to get back a large chunk of his health at 25% life in Blood Magic? Here's a hint, it's not Blood Renewal. Alt F Four 01:19, 28 September 2006 (CDT)

Illusion of weakness at high levels SHOULD work (I use that for my grenth balance spiker).-Onlyashadow 08:56, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
 * also being blood this can actually get upto 20 with Awaken, Altar, and +1/20. at the current progression rate thats 35 + 115 for a possible 144 (w/o the +1/20%) - 150 life steal. --Midnight08  08:58, 25 September 2006 (CDT)

Ummm Yea...I can't see this being useful in any aspect of guildwars, it's just too crappy.-Onlyashadow 10:32, 25 September 2006 (CDT)
 * I second that, it is too cumbersome to use and does not offer that much. --Long 07:13, 29 September 2006 (CDT)
 * Too cumbersome to ue? At 16 blood and 1 curses, Awaken the Blood followed by Rip Enchantment gets you to low enough health from 455 that Ravenous will steal the max at 18. After this you can either follow up with more life steal to get your health full before recasting this, or a 21% or more sacrifice (before AtB) will get you to the right level to have Ravenous trigger again. --Khoross 12:35, 29 September 2006 (CDT)

It's another, easier way to kill 55's Assassinman 22:41, 27 September 2006 (CDT)
