While I do agree that it's way too easy to find out if someone is a vampire simply by watching any heals recieved (I've accidentally exposed several vampires in PVE parties when I was playing as a healer; it's easy to see when someone with over 800 HP heals less than 100 from a Malmelo that heals someone with 500 for over 100) I think a bunch of these effects need a re-look before we edit their vampire interactions.
Tenacity, especially, is a big one. It's literally a punchline to a bad joke. "Want to hear a bad SL2 joke?" "Okay." "Tenacity." Even at level 1, you're taking somewhere in their neighborhood of 20 damage per hit; the heck is 3 HP per turn, only starting on what's potentially the 3rd round (Back Attack and Round 0 have no regen effects at all) going to do? It's literally garbage. Not worth the SP at all. Even if you want to stack HP regen to hell and back (Glykin, Terrasque Shell, etc) you're better off using other classes because Tenacity is one hundred percent terrible. Pre-GR it at least made low level grinding easier since it wasn't hard to get your damage taken quite low if you upgraded your armor, but... AND IT'S STILL BETTER THAN THE BLOOD JEWEL.
I think that before we decide to make these kinds of effects work with vamps, we need to make them work with everyone else, first. Because a lot of them just don't.
