• Disciples of Khaine fuel their abilities through direct melee combat so there's no more sitting back and being bored healing.
• Since they power their healing abilities through melee combat, they have a higher chance of survival when in the thick of combat
• Disciples of Khaine are equally at home in both solo PvE and RvR play.
  

• Disciples of Khaine have to get up close and personal in order to heal. While this presents better opportunities for aggresive playstyle while still being a healer, you're still a healer and being smack dab in the middle of combat isn't usually the healthiest place for a healer to be.
  
• Disciples have few ranged attacks compared to other healers.
  
• Disciples of Khaine fuel their power through attacking. If you're not attacking anyone, then you run out of Blood points quickly and lose your healing abilities.

“Few are the select chosen that survive the reveries of the Death Night. Fewer still are those who leave the Cauldron with eyes of molten brass, burning with the hatred of our Dark god. These true chosen are taken into the cult and trained in the most secret of rites, emerging as masters of death second only to Khaine himself.”
- Haridar of Har Ganeth

The chosen dark priests of the bloody handed god, The Disciples of Khaine, can be found on the frontline of any Druchii assault. Using wicked ritual blades, a Disciple harvests the essence of their enemy and offers it to Khaine in exchange for fell blessings and dark powers. These dark gifts allow the Disciple to tend to the needs of the Dark Elf host, mending bones, suppressing pain, and even raising critically injured warriors to fight again. The Disciple of Khaine is the shepherd of war, ensuring the bloody slaughter can continue in the name of their dark god.

Disciples of Khaine are wicked in RvR combat. Since they do a decent amount of melee damage and can heal well during combat, it's rare that you'll find a class that can stand up to them one on one. If you get two Disciples working in tandem, that can be a sight to behold as they cut through just about anything you have to offer. On the average, it will usually take at least two people to take down a well played Disciple of Khaine.

Melee combat is your friend. If you get caught out in the open with no one to cut on and attacked at range? You're a goner. While you have 250 blood points to burn through, it does you no good if you can't replenish them. As a Disciple of Khaine, as long as you have people to cut, you'll have blood points to spend in healing and if you can keep the heals going, you can outlast even the most dedicated Melee DPS class.
