Cure for Vampirism?
I went out of my way to get bitten by a Vampire & recieved a message in the chat window about having 7 days to visit the Church of Arosa or I become a Vampire. I let it happen, read the skills and then I saw my Stamina + Mana draining during the day & wanted to nope out of that. Unfortunately my reloaded save leaves me with 4 or 5 days till transformation & no one at the Church of Arosa seems to offer any cure & I am wondering if anyone knows how I fix this? I would prefer not to play as a Vampire or start a new character.

There is a castle in Hills of Delvenaugh with a lone coffin. For me a level 1 vampire popped out & bit me. There is a 25% chance to infect you with Vampirism which takes 7 days to take effect. You might just get a sore throat instead though, coughing up blood & draining your HP over time. The cough can be cured by sleeping in a bed for a couple days.

Did you try going and talking to the bishop in that first town you got sent to, forget the name but it starts with an E. His is up on a balcony of a castle. Not sure if he can help but worth a try.

If ya DO end up vampiring though, worth noting that standing in a shadow stops the debuff. Its only direct sunlight that gets ya.

Nope. I made a new character. The gains absolutely did not out way the downsides. Equal exchange means that if I'm going to feel like a ♥♥♥♥♥ in the sunlight, I need to be godlike in the dark. Vamp skills were kinda meh & it didn't feel like Health, Magic or Stamina were any better at night. At least not as much better at night as they are worse in daylight.

I can't believe steam censored the official term for a female dog. Christ censorship is stupid..!!

Every time you Feed you get 3 minutes of immunity to sunlight and its effects. I generally have a constant 20 minutes to 30 minutes of immunity as I play because I Feed aas much as I can. If you can ragdoll an enemy, Feeding kills it which is pretty fun.

Only on your end, I can see the word fine.

I had filtering turned off & yet it was censored. I enter it into words to always include and now I can see it. That's so stupid. Guess I will have to manually add every word I can think of that might be censored as alot of things come up censored for me, even though I have filtering off.


Needing to constantly feed in order to avoid daylight consequences is abit odd. Give in to your beastly craving and avoid negative side effects, but ignore the hunger, trying to keep your humanity & suffer the daylight. Firstly I think it would be better the other way round, where by not feeding has you be more human, with less vamp side effects, but less benefits & powers. Then the more you feed the more powerful you become in the night, but weaker in the day. Equivalent exchange would be good. So if my Magic, Stamina or Health has no regen or drains at say 5 units a second in the day, then I expect it to regen at 5 units a second at night. The same as if sunlight could kill me I would expect darkness to make me almost invincible. If I am -20 to agility, strength, or whatever weaker in daylight, I want +20 of the same better at night. Equal exchange. I like the idea that being a vampire gains some basic pro's & cons, but is almost no different than being human, unless you feed. Then the more you feed, the more monstrous you become, but the more your thirst grows to maintain your power.

As for now the way vampirism currently works, I don't really like it. That's fine, not everything needs to be tailored to me, I just won't play a vampire. I never liked Elder Scrolls vampires either. The vamps in Legacy of Kain are some of the coolest & some vamps in my fav vamp movies/shows are alright, (Bram Stoker's Dracula, Interview with a Vampire, Blade, Hellsing Ultimate, Underworld, Dracula Untold, The Originals, and Castlevania) but most games don't make them how I like them.

For now I would just like to see the option for curing vampirism at the church to be finished. Either I'm blind, or it hasn't been implemented yet. I had to start a new character, but it would be nice if I could reload my original after the cure is implemented (unless I feel being a vampire is made way cooler).

Same here, I always just thought people were weird and were too ♥♥♥♥♥ to actually type the swear word but still wanted some kind of effect out of the emotes.

As for the vampirism not something I would play but who knows as you seemed to get it as a random encounter. Having said that there is a lot of neat features in this game that the dev (single person as far as I know) hopefully builds on as the development progresses.

This game has been a breath of fresh air to me though, was so bored of the same games over and over with just a new "skin" slapped on. Video games are mostly stagnant just like hollywood. For example, I love that you can run through town in this game and knock people over, find it so hilarious. Love to give them the "clothesline from hell".

Like most games, being a vampire is supposed to have some serious downsides. That being said, the main benefit here is oneshotting tough enemies by using the ragdoll skills.

Like everythign else in the game, theres just a glimpse of what should be here to let you know the Dev wants to expand on it eventually. Unfortunately, one dev can't do much by himself, even with buying community assets- theres sooo much and the optimization becomes awful anyhow. likely it will be community feedback dictating what milo does as the game simply can't be EVERYTHING like he wants.

As for vamps, I'd say just add move speed and regen while not in direct sunlight.
