what do you think they will be?

Nice video, I haven't seen that one. Aside from the stage 4 Vampires not being attacked on sight, I think the only other addition we can expect is the glowy eyes Harkon has.

I would love the glowy eyes as well as maybe an extra vampire exclusive power or two for their base form.

Give. Us. Fangs.

...and sparkles.

I would be very interested in some additional powers in human form, maybe they'll allow some ofth VL abilities to stransfer over, IE still be able to use flock of bat form.

Extra jumping height would be nice........ Sigh

Better absorb health spell, make it ACTUALLY USEFUL.

Anyways...
I like how we can bite people who are not sleeping, looked awesome in the trailer.

Fangs could work. What with the whole bite animation.

Apparently we already have fangs. My Dunmer would clench his teeth when fighting, and they were visible. My Nord doesn't do that though, so I can never see them.

Well if this is regular in-game video...you can have a crossbow as a vampire, so it won't be just for dawnguard

That was a good video, thanks for that. I think I'll try vampire lord on my first go.

I hope their actually different and not just an eye color switch that im expecting.

The whole people not attacking you at level 4 thing doesn't really matter to me seeing as how it never progresses that far before i find someone to eat.

Would love to see new powers or make the ones we do have actually usefull. That life drain has to be the weakest spell in the game.

This clears up so many questions. Swwweeeeeeeeet

I am wondering if some of the powers shown in the Trailer, like biting people while they are awake, are going to be Lord exclusive or if all vampires can do it as soon as we get the expansion...

in the dawngaurd trailer it shows regular vampires feed on awakened enemies and turn into swarm of bats,im pretty sure those are some of the additions in the overhaul.

Well from the looks of it, all types of vampires can do that...since outside of Lord form, I'm pretty sure, you are just a normal vampire

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 8:42 pm

That is the question though. If you are a Vampire Lord, do you get special powers when in normal form? Or is that for every new vampire regardless of whether or not you have started the Vampire questline.

We have no idea about that yet. We'll have to wait and see. During E3 it seemed the main focus was the vampire lord, and not the normal vampires and what was being expanded onto them. I wish at least one journalist asked about this.

You might just get glowing eyes in normal form...bethesda doesn't seem to like to give you "outside" powers from these things. Werewolf gave nothing outside of being a werewolf, so I wouldn't be surprised if vampire lord doesn't do anything either

» Fri Jun 15, 2012 4:26 pm

This really messes me up though, even though I'm glad to see it, I just finished my Dawnguard character which is at level 10, and I am about to start building my vampire character and I cant make up my mind as to which build to make. Which is only harder when I dont know the new powers and abilities/ armor/ & weapons.

Or how the new look for vampires, looks like...

They have already made it clear regular vampires are being re-done and will have new abilities.

I know, I was talking about what being a Vampire Lord does, outside of being in Lord form

FYI, the speculation that vampires are losing their fangs in Dawnguard is based off the fact that Harkon doesn't have fangs in the trailer, though it might not mean anything.
