Bloodmage - time to un-nerf?

What do people think? I'm partial to number 3 myself, although I don't even know if it's possible without help from OWNX. I just feel like with the new races, Bloodmage in its current state is basically unusable. Siphon mana steals almost no money at all, and damage reduction seems like it's less than draenei.

A full restore to its original would be a good balance vs dren etc.

I completely agree, I hardly seen people use blood mage besides the same group of people I noticed. Personally, it would be my last pick of race to use lol. :roll:

I have only played with BM since it was changed so I do not know what it use to be like. I like playing with BM for the Blind enemy that it has, also fun to watch people burn :D

Bloodmage banish skill doesn't blind enemy, by the way. It SEEMS that way, but it actually teleports them into a black box outside the map. From their perspective, the screen looks black, but for everyone else, that person simply disappears.

Before all the new races, BM was by far the most dominant. It steals money (at max level you could get 16k a round), and has a passive dmg reduction skill. A level 25 bloodmage needs about 150-180 dmg to kill - and that's WITHOUT mask or periapt.

I think if we restore BM to full power it would just barely edge out Draenei as the most OP tank, but right now both those skills are almost useless. I think going back to about 75% of money steal and dmg reduction would be a good compromise.
