This guide explains a powerful combo in The Blood of Dawnwalker built around Hastened Corruption, allowing you to overheal beyond your normal maximum Health while gaining a major damage buff at the same time.
What This Combo Does
- Provides excellent survivability through constant Health regeneration
- Grants a powerful damage buff while you are healing
- Easily compensates for one of the biggest weaknesses of Vampiric form: its unreliable access to Health recovery
Required Skills
Essential Skills
- Hastened Corruption (Level 2) — Allows you to restore Health beyond your normal maximum when drinking blood
- Scarlet Shield — Restores Health when blocking
- Crimson Rush — Increases the damage dealt by Active Abilities based on your current Health
Recommended Skills
- Voracious Bite — An active way to restore Health during combat
- Closing Wounds — Automatically regenerates Health while in Vampiric form
How the Combo Works
The foundation of this combo is Hastened Corruption Level 2, which allows you to recover Health beyond your normal maximum.
Judging from the skill description alone, it appears that this overhealing effect only applies when drinking blood. In practice, however, Health restored by Scarlet Shield when blocking and by Voracious Bite during combat can also trigger the overheal effect.
As a result, simply blocking attacks and using Voracious Bite whenever you get an opening makes it remarkably easy to maintain your Health at maximum + extra, giving you extremely high survivability during nighttime combat.
Then Crimson Rush, which increases the damage of Active Abilities based on how much Health you currently have, turns all of that extra survivability into additional offensive power as well.
The result is a ridiculously durable, hard-hitting super-Vrakhiri that combines both survivability and damage output.
One thing to keep in mind is that while Closing Wounds is extremely useful for passive Health regeneration, it does not trigger overhealing.
