DRK QOL changes for 5.4

[ADVSS]

Having said all of this, I still want Delirium completely out of the game, or as WhyAmIHere said, yet another expansion-tradition of redesigning the ability completely.

The other thing that irks me about Delirium is just the namesake. Back in HW as an int-reducing combo finisher it made a degree of sense, but in my field of study I think of it more like agitation/restlessness, hallucinations, slowed/heavier movement, that sort of thing. If anything, that sounds like a buff we should put up as a prerequisite for summoning Living Shadow and turning delusions into a reality through dark arts than it does "I'm gonna become an actual acrobat and pull off a million front flips", though maybe they took the "agitation" part a little too much into account.

Can't agree more, I feel like delirium is just the cursed ability that gets changed entirely every expansion myself lol. And I agree I dont mind bloodspiller in small doses, but spamming it is increadibly terrible visually and audibly, wish there was a finisher for the burst at the least.
I agree delirium makes more sense as the ability that could summon fray while living shadow could be changed to be as enkindle, or a big nuke in that phase.

Edit: I dont mind blood weapon existing, but its hardly that great when comparing it to the speed increase it had. I keep thinking about atonement, how it sort of works, and i almost wonder if giving a stack of Dark Arts after a couple successful Soul Eater combo's, while decoupling it from the TBN pop would ruin DRK game play or not.Comparing the damage of Atonement to BS might be the simple way of looking at it, but to me it actually feels closer to a stack of DA - Free damage with mp gain, vs free damage proc that prevents massive mp use. Might be super unpopular, but it would let you use TBN more often without worrying about it getting popped. Problem I guess could be that MP management would be even easier.
