Part 4 of the 8-day seroes on detailed class changes. Today I'm covering the Blood Mage and the Shaman, and again any old spell changes are going to be striked through and any new changes are going to be bold.
Blood Mage
The Blood Mage hasn't changed too much, given that his idea before lines up with how I want him to actually be. I took away Hemorrhage's damage component since I felt it was too similar to Bleed Out, and now made it a risk-reward ability with increased Spell Damage Dealt at the cost of Maximum Health. To counter this Health loss, Bleed Out grants bonus Maximum Health when it Kills, and he gets some natural tankiness from Augmentation (which was originally the opposite, granting Damage Dealt a chance to switch).

Shaman
The Shaman also hasn't changed much, since his whole idea was a slow-burning Healer. His idea is that he's relatively weak in the early game, but can get extremely powerful in the late game. Mass Heal is a strong healing spell on its own when it's upgraded, but his new Passives allow it to really shine. Also he's still the only unit with a Reviving Active Spell, so that has immense value all in its own.
