the synergy of new sword and blood artifact i think is similar to krak aegis and krak artifact (one damaging proc and another buffs related but reversed). personally i'm fine with things as they are now but "maybe" a little adjustment is needed to make them better
see when talking about buffs, most people classify them into 3 major points which is damage, defense and speed. as its most recent blood weapon release, clearly the damage path being most highlighted so no further commentary towards that. for defense there already exist an enormous survivability boost from 7/6 sb, krak/blood belt, or kraken artifact plus you guys mentioned about wanting players to have more than 1 play style rather than generalize everything into 1 while retaining those released from previous expansion for some time extent right?
all that is left unclear is speed which currently has krak sword + belt combo to serve as the only viable option. not asking for equal footing or higher but can the blood sword at least amped some speed? 25-30% i think is enough
the context is obviously within pve as a warrior, can't say for mage or rogue plus on pvp maybe someone will argue about the defensively lacking (as you can't switch set freely when taking damage or under some control) trait. i'm no pvp player so i'll stop here
