As this week’s approaching Campfire Chat promises a discussion regarding the resurgence Vampiric Powers, players are looking forward to reuniting with their favorite seasonal features from Season of Blood. With so many powers to choose from, though, which will make the cut? We've taken a look at all the Vampiric Powers from Season 2 in Diablo 4, and picked our Top 5 that we'd like to see return to the game.

Regardless of how Vampiric Powers return, we know which ones we would really like to see (other than ).
Editor's Note: was the obvious fan favorite Vampiric Power from Season 2 due to its impact on mobility and damage output, so we’ll be freeing up a spot on the list by leaving this one out — otherwise, this list would just be " and Four Other Powers".
