Taste of Vitae timing

Hi Methuselahs, Recently Tom posted to this group concerning the timing of Pulled Fangs, and stated that they can not be played until after additional strikes have been resolved. Has this issue ever been discussed for Taste of Vitae? The first line clearly states that it is usable only after strike resolution, the next line states that the vampire recieves an amount of blood equal to the (errata - Damage) lost by the other vampire. It concludes with "Not usable by a vampire going to torpor." Does this enable you to play a taste of vitae after the first strike resolution, thus giving you more blood to survive the additional strikes of some Brujah blender? Or do you have to wait until after all strike resolutions (aka Pulled Fangs)? Before the Pulled Fangs rulling (clarification?) I would have said it clearly could be used before additional strikes, but now I am not so certain. Scott, has this been ruled on / clarified? Tom, does it need to be?

It can be used after *any* strike resolution set (but not between first strike and normal strike resolution). If used before additional strikes, it will not continue to 'gain' blood lost in those additional strikes. Ref: <4b1ofq$9...@darkstar.UCSC.EDU> -- L.
