There's no need to go full energy when bacchanalia gives you energy factor damage.

Did you read the stats? It's clearly for bloodzon.
Life drain to help activate Bacchanalia <50% hp bonuses, lif after kill to sustain the drain, fire/magic spell dmg. flat dr is really nice too. Just no one really plays bloodzon. I think it's just an underrated class vs underrated item.

Idea is there, but really balancing heal on kill vs constant slow drain, doens't work in practise. You will just constantly lose that buff.
Not that it is unplayable without it, but obviously much weaker. It is even more so to the loss of bloodstorm range or magic missile splash than the damage, because as it was mentioned above, it is same as EF spell power, so if you go for energy (and you sort of have to to not run oom), you already have decent portion of that bonus from energy/ef, even if you don't focus your build around it.
I get that you don't want to make all casters the same, I share that sentiment. Just telling you my experience of leveling and trying to progress with this build. Not unplabale, not even straight up bad (but there are stronger casters with similar gear level). Just really annoying to deal with that passive in the lategame, thats it.
It is sort of like trying to play low life build in poe without life reservation by auras mechanics.
