Vampire (Spec)

Abilities

Survival as a Vampire

Vampires forgo the need or ability to eat food in exchange for the ability to drink blood. Blood can be obtained by using their special 2 on a target or by drinking out of a Blood Bottle.

In lieu of saturation like normal humans, vampires instead directly consume blood in exchange for regeneration. This means instead of having a buffer between actions and bar reduction is no longer on the table. Consumed blood will translate directly into health, making vampires very thirsty very quickly when injured.

Vampires exposed to direct sunlight without a hat or out of water will incur fire damage. This, however, can be avoided by wearing a hat that blocks the sun. Namely:

• Red Hat
• Kars' Head Wrap
• Pucci's Hat
• Diego's Hat
• Risotto's Hood

All of these hats can be crafted using a leather helmet along with their respective dyes and other materials. They have the same armor points and durability as an iron helmet. It is important to note, that cosplay hats which block the sun cannot be tiered past iron.

Combat

Vampires are very well rounded in combat, with great survivability due to the direct regeneration granted through blood consumption, their passives, and being able to outheal most problems.

A vampire's Beatdown and Space Ripper Stingy Eyes can be very good combo starters. Vampires have exceptional combo game when paired with a stand, due to their grab, heavy, and barrage allowing for insane combo extenders.

NPCs

Vampires can spawn within a Vampire's Lair and have the same hp as a player with the armor of one wearing chainmail. They are the only NPC in the game currently to use the Vampire Spec.
