Vampirism has very limited uses, so I am agreeing with the last 2 posters (107 healer myself). I have been told by some other players that it will work ok with bomb/rico offensive spells, the more targets the better it works because it sucks HPs from each successful target.... HOWEVER I have not bothered to test this as I am mostly grouped as a healer and shouldnt need the extra hassle. Plus at higher levels having multiple targets is not a good idea. I suspect it might be good for offensive mages.
And just to squash myths about vampirism before they start, the stanza USED to be GREAT back in beta. If you see an old post saying how great it was, well all that was changed in the live game.
i believe there should also be a sap vamperism as mages have to regen for 10 mins after each kill unless they team wheras if you had a good sap/hp vamperisim we may actually be able to solo after 140 without sitting down half the day
would be nice for vampirism to work on double casts too

While the nukers who picked up healing are going to say
"wtf? Why would I want a more expensive nuke like that"... the healers who hate having no offenses or defenses, unless they keep elemental matched close to healing, will say
"Yay! it checks healing for resists, uses healing skills, and awards healing exp!!!!11!".... We could always hope that
something like this really does move over onto the live servers.
Edit for those who didn't get it
obvious
