== [[User:Falconeye|Falconeye]]'s Proposal ==
[[ArenaNet talk:Skill feedback/Necromancer/Angorodon's Gaze#Falconeye's issue|Discussion]]
* '''Issue''': Please give [[Smite]], [[Essence Strike]], [[Bitter Chill]] & [[Angorodon's Gaze]] the same treatment Anet did with 4 elemental energy-management spells by tying them to thier respective '''Primary Attributes'''... a reliable alternative source of energy-management.
::'''See [[Glowing Gaze]]'''
::'''See [[Shock Arrow]]'''
::'''See [[Glowstone]]'''
::'''See [[Glowing Ice]]'''
* '''Suggestion''':
:*{{Skill icon|Angorodon's Gaze}} - {{skill data|5|1|8}} - ('''Blood Magic''') - [[Spell]]. Steals {{gr|10|40}} [[Health]]. If you have a [[condition]], you gain 5 [[Energy]] plus 1 Energy for every 2 ranks of [[Soul Reaping]]."
* '''Reason''':
:The change to the 4 elemental e-skills was quite eligent and Brilliant:
:'''1)''' It removed possibility of secondary-abuse.
:'''2)''' It provided free conditional spell regardless of attribute spread.
:'''3)''' Grants superior e-management then old version for each attribute point spent (improved energy-gain vs. points spent).
:Makes the '''Primary Attribute''' more essential
* '''Also See''':

== Fuels degenerate blood spike builds ==

;Issue
:See above

;Suggestion
:Increase cost to 25.

== How to NOT nerf this skill while nerfing spike builds ==

;Issue
:Fuels degenerate spike builds.

;Suggestion
:5e 1s 8r, set the energy gain to 2...8...9, add "If you have a necro enchantment, this activates and recharges twice as slowly."

* The point of this is that you wouldn't START a spike with this skill. It gives back energy, so you would ideally use it at the end of a spike. The new conditional means that if you use Vampiric Spirit before it(as in a spike build) it has a 2 second cast time, making it vulnerable to dshot and invalidating it's use as follow-up damage. Oh, and even if you dont get dshotted it has a 16 second recharge because of the conditional.

[[User_talk:Bathory/Suggestions/Necromancer#Angorodon's_Gaze|Comments & Suggestions Here, Please]]
;Issue
:This has been nerfed and is now unwieldier to use than other Energy management skills in other attributes (mostly non-Necro). Changing the Energy gain to be less dependant on the caster themselves would give them less of a benefit that's under their control. This way the recharge could be brought back in to line with other similar skills, and the blood necromancers have slightly weaker energy management.
;Suggestion
:{{skill data|5|1|8}}
:'''Spell.''' Steals {{gr|10|40}} Health. You gain {{gr|3|5}} Energy if you are suffering from a condition and {{gr|3|5}} Energy if your target is suffering from a condition.

; Issue
*In its current form it fuels Necromancer energy pools far too much, especially with Soul Reaping supporting the Necromancer as well.
*Consider this suggestion versus [[Vampiric Gaze]]. With this suggestion, they would do almost the same thing, but this ability gives you the opportunity to have the spell cost less energy if you meet a condition.
*The condition is easy to satisfy on a Necromancer, so the spell should cost you just under 10 energy with the condition met and a painful 15 energy when it isn't for the PvP version.
*The skill's value in PvE is substantial if you can net a positive energy gain from it, and since enemies have huge life amounts, blood spike is a non-issue.
*I really want there to be a penalty for using this spell when you don't have a condition, so I brought back the earlier 15 energy requirement. I feel that this better separates it from [[Vampiric Gaze]] and other life stealing skills.
; Suggestion
*{{Skill icon|Angorodon's Gaze}} - {{skill data|15|1|8}} - [[Spell]]. Steals {{gr|10|60}} Health. You gain {{gr|7|18}} Energy if you have a [[condition]].
*{{Skill icon|Angorodon's Gaze}} (PvP) - {{skill data|15|1|8}} - (Blood Magic) - [[Spell]]. Steals {{gr|10|60}} Health. You gain 7 Energy if you have a [[condition]].
