VR vs Chant of vampire

I want to roll a VR buff bot, and i was wondering how good is the Chant of vampir from Warcryer compared to VR 1,2,3 of the SE ?

I would love to play an orc but if VR is better than chant of vampire i will roll a dirty dark elf :p

As far as i know there is only Chant of vampire lvl 1 ? And i will only have it at lvl 44, while the SE got the first VR at lvl 30.

VR and chant of vamp is the same thing but:
At lvl 30 (SO) you will have VR1.. which is nice. You need second class transfer to get it on WC.
At lvl 44 and 56 (SE) you will have vr2, vr3. At lvl 58(!) you will have CoV2... VR2 is good enough. BUT
w/ WC you get a lot more melee buffs namely:
haste2 (56),agility3(56, irrc),CoR62 (chant of revege, not so hot) (if you are DA you have it anyways).
W/ wc you lack WW and mana recharge but if you start a buff bot you won't have mana recharge untill you play it as main for some time (or you sub).
WC buffs costs a lot and cancel might trick you.
...
All in all I'd take WC any time.

Buff bots are single buffers, being a WC would be a huge mp waste because if something were to happen you got a while to wait before re-buff. SE on auto follow with VR and pop GSAP's is the best idea.

Finally i recalled which buff i missed before: chant of flame (Magic barrier). It's a nice thing that can save your butt in case of magic crit.

Thanks guys.

Well i already have a prophet for the other buff, even if the WC got some that the prophet dont have.

So i will roll an SE, since it will be OnLy for buffing.

Thanks again.

if you 3box it's no brainer. Agility is not that big.
VR1 is enough on top of prophet buffs.

i will roll a dirty dark elf :p

Thems FIGHTIN' words, pardner! :mad:
