Casting raise dead breaks blooddrinker’s channel. Is this intended?
In raid my opener is
pre-pot
dnd
death’s caress
reaper’s mark
blooddrinker
macro [DRW + RD]
Macro Raise Dead into Heart Strike instead. DRW CD is way shorter than 90 seconds due to our bones popping from Tombstone and Bonestorm.
What are you using Blood Drinker for? Consumption increases the tick speed of all diseases on the target from our Blood Boil, which is extra healing, and with the talent in Deathbringer (Wither Away I think) that’s a huge chunk of damage and healing from Blood Plague. Consumption also gives 2 runes back.
But I would assume Raise Dead doesn’t work because it isn’t a Defensive Ability and those are the only buttons able to be pressed while channeling Blood Drinker.
I was trying out blooddrinker in raid, seeing how it plays single target. I run consumption for m+.
The increased Blood Plague tick rate makes Consumption better than Blood Drinker even in Single Target, which is unfortunate. If taking it for Defensive purposes it’s at least better than Rune Tap, but damage wise it’s inferior to Consumption.
