From fighting vampires in game personally, and seeing them play I would say they do not need buffs at all, but rather maybe a few tweaks/nerfs. They are incredibly fast and have CC as well as good damage output, i will say that yeah, they can be hard to play sometimes, but, when a competent player gets into its shoes they do incredibly well. I don't really see the reason for these buffs, I'd rather tweak vampire to be easier to play for the average player and then nerf its capabilities similar to what we did to warriors. |
Compared to other T2s vamp lurker cant really 1 shot marines into crit . And this change is mostly about the aim assist which is to make it a little easier to play. |

# About the pull request This PR corrects an erroneous change in `apply_strain` because only modifiers can be set here. The change to lower the damage tier would be undone when `recalculate_damage` would apply the lurker caste's values for the upper and lower damage values. Ultimately I'm not certain it does need the damage reduction - but as of #5625 it does more with direct tail stabs so between the two this should be a minor nerf. # Explain why it's good for the game Corrects an intended reduction in damage for taking the strain. # Testing Photographs and Procedure <details> <summary>Screenshots & Videos</summary> Put screenshots and videos here with an empty line between the screenshots and the `<details>` tags. </details> # Changelog :cl: Drathek balance: Corrected vampire lurker damage values (Effectively reduction by 5 damage for most attacks) /:cl:

-Using Tail stab on the same tile a enemey is standing will automatically target tailstab to the enemy.
-Sprite clicking and enemy with Tail stab now provides a Bonus 15 Dmg
Explain why it's good for the game
after the reversal of the vamp lurker rework it was left in a very weak state . only a handfull of players being able to play it decently. this PR aims to make it a little easier for players to use vamp lurker.
