[Feedback] Blood wave should consume blood lances/corpses to explode

Blood wave is not the greatest when compared to bone storm and doesn’t do that much for a blood themed build.

My suggestion is that blood wave should have an aspect or something that will allow it to consume blood lance stacks on targets to trigger overpower explosions. This could also consume corpses to empower the blood wave to deal more damage and basically be a street cleaner.

For blood builds this turns into two strategies:

  1. Blood Lance- build up as many stacks as possible, use blood wave to trigger explosions, hopefully get enough blood orbs to drastically lower blood wave for next pack.
  2. Cleans up corpses providing damage increase to the ult, maybe even counts as consuming corpse for essence gain/other perks.

Side note: give necro some movement speed please. Necro feels like a grandparent using a walker compared to the other classes on segways or straight up track stars jumping across the screen.

As a Blood Surge player, I would not care about blood lance interaction but I would love to play with Blood wave. I forced myself a lot to play with it but it’s really really weak. The cleanse corpses to stack damage is a good idea. They really need to up the overpower damage of blood wave anyway and fix the Rathma’s Vigor bug with Bloothbath node. Actually I’m dealing way more damage with 1 OP blood surge compared to 3 OP blood wave which is dumb lol

I like this “street cleaner” Blood Wave idea lol.

What I wouldn’t give for an aspect to make blood mist a movement skill similar to Sorc’s teleport. Similar to the Blood Mage bat teleport they do.
