Why do CI builds get free Blood Rage?

Why does Blood Rage work with CI?

With CI you don't have any drawback using Blood Rage. The whole idea of "tacking chaos damage but higher life leech" is gone.
The result is that very few people seem to use it as a life based character and it gives free frenzy charges + free life leech to CI. This makes no sense!

Furthermore, the name Blood Rage belongs to life based marauder smash in your face strenght builds and not to int based "clever" witch ES builds. CI users don't even have enough Blood (1) left, to rage...

Suggestions: Blood Rage can not be used as CI. Could be phrased like: Degen effect must do damage to keep the buff active.

Sorry if this was suggested already, i couldn't find a topic about it.

2 things to note.

1) when ci and its horrid state were introduced at ob, chris made it very clear blood rage was a ci benefit.

2) as long as it works for melee, I don't really care what you suggest.

why the hell not

Blood Dance boots + Frenzy = free blood rage.
No need to be CI
And don't say nobody doest that - I do.

I was under the impression that BR is only useful with CI, otherwise I would die pretty fast just through BR because I never have any noticable Chaos resistance in PoE. ^^"" BR would be a nice skill but chaos damage is just to strong to use it outside of CI and/or special builds/Uniques.

Because BM is a big drawback, either you don't have mana for % auras, or you fill a slot + 200% mana mult of your skill or you use a crappy helmet.

It was a bad example but i wanted to say all have its pros and cons
