    I definitely agree that DRK needs a better focus on resource management and juggling/swapping of MP and Blackblood.
    The general mechanics of using TBN to get Blackblood and using Quietus to get MP are fun and I would like to see this resource trading mechanic expanded and done more with.

My first thought was something along the lines of having DA persist for multiple attacks (similar to DA's original bug effect at launch), but that would leave you without a way to properly dump MP. Some other possibilities would be to have DA potency effects increase under Delirium, or to have DA generate blood and blood usage generate MP. Either way, it's too finicky and offers too little net benefit for the cost at the moment.
    This made me think of an idea, perhaps a bit crazy but I think would definitely be fun.

    First, they combine the Blackblood and Enhanced Blackblood traits into one single trait because really there is no need for them to be split into two.
    This then opens up a trait slot where they could give us the following new trait.

    Darker Arts
    lvl.66
    Allows for the storing of multiple Dark Arts usages up to a maximum of 3. Each Dark Arts stored resets the duration of all the stored Dark Arts usages to 10s.

    The levels that Quietus, Bloodspiller and Delerium are acquired would need to get shuffled around with Quietus at 62, Bloodspiller at 66 and Delerium to 68.

    Then change Delerium to the following.

    Delerium
    lvl.68
    Ability - Instant - 120s.
    Restores MP.
    Additional Effect: Every time Dark Arts is activated it provides two usages instead of one.
    Duration: 20s.

    Similar to Inner Release but hopefully different enough to make it not feel the same.
