Weapons like Shiro's Blades and Shiro's Sword give -1 regen to health. However it would be good if outside combat after hero reach full hitpoints it continue regen itself so I don't lose all to time HP and they still work excatly same way in combat. Vampiric etc weapons also got same thing.

Basically -1 health regen is same with -1 mana regen and not currently that -1 health regen outside combat take my hit points all to time. It still work in combat same way but outside combat like -1 mana regen does. Basically no need swap weapon every 5 second because I'm outside fight but when I'm in fight weapon downside work like now.

Outside combat: no lose health from -1 health regen (Just like -1 energy regen not make you lose energy to zero because you gain mana outside combat too).
IN COMBAT: lose health from -1 health regen.

Oh and if somebody get stuck. Just make those guys /kill command to respawn with small delay.

Yes, it does seem unfair that a weapon with -1 to health regeneration slowly kills a character, while something with -1 to energy regeneration just slows down the rate at which energy, er, regenerates. Surely outside combat a character ought to automatically regenerate health, and more than compensate for a vampiric weapon.

It would make those vampiric bows and swords rather more valuable, for sure!

Well Clord is saying that "/kill" would cover that eventuality. I assume that it doesn't yet work, but adding such an emote (or "/suicide") would be a sensible idea, it is greatly annoying when one does get stuck, usually in Urgoz's Warren where there seem to be a number of dodgy places.

As long as you are holding a vampiric weapon you should loose health over time in my oppinion, not that hard to switch to a non-vampiric weapon

Just swap weapons, as easy as a click or a button press.

How about the game warns you, "Red Warrior Is Losing Health and Needs Food!"

I didn't expected that many see big picture but oh well. At least I voiced my opinion in forum. You guys try to make excuse that it is not signed because bridge bug when simple command can do that it add you automatic leech what kill you in few seconds after used eg "/suicide".

This is an absolutly retarded idea. Learn to switch weapons. If you can't switch weapons, please uninstall Guild Wars.

This would (almost) completely nullify the negative effects of the vampiric mod, therefore causing an imbalance. There are many other reasons why this is a flawed idea, but alone or together, they lead to just one thing…

I think its one of those balance issues. After all, there is a price for your choice of using a vampiric weapon(even though there is an easy way out by switching weapons). Just like there is a price to pay for using certain skills(like exhaustion for ele's), there is a price to pay for using certain weapons, be it energy regen or health degen.
Also, you can make use of the Blessing you can get from Grenth's avatar, though the life stealing isn't as strong.
But thats just my two cents

If vamperic weapons shouldn't have a drawback outside of combat, why shouldn't zealous weapons?

/me sides with the majority and doesn't sign

If you don't want the drawback, equip something else in another slot and switch around.
