Unlocking Vampire?

[Kill Me For Loot]

Any tips on unlocking Vampire? I've gotten that quest only once and wasn't able to get all my vampires. I've gone through the game completely at least 7 times now on Cake Walk and I'm getting really tired of trying to farm for that quest. Is it only on the 3rd floor (the place where I had it before)?

there is a talent that lets you turn enemies into vampires when they escape

On Cakewalk:

1) Unlock the Library as fast as you can and keep upgrading it as fast as you can, to maximize the amount of experience Iratus gets.

2) When having a choice between experience for minions and Iratus on the map, take experience for Iratus.

3) Unlock Blood Curse (Iratus' Magic skill) as fast as possible.

4) Bride of Iratus has the stress attack that can be upgraded to make enemies more likely to flee. Banshee makes enemies more likely to flee as her Feature. Some items also make enemies more likely to flee.

5) Use Blood Curse on enemies who are trying to flee and let them flee. That way you should be able to get a Vampire. Getting 5 Vampires should unlock the Vampire's schematic.

There's also a few enemies that are guaranteed to flee if they're the last one standing, because they can only provide buffs to allies and can't harm your minions. The dwarf oracle in the second area and the bard with the lute in the third area.

Make a double lost soul, wraith & dark knight stress based party and upgrade your wraith to add a 25% chance for enemy to flee on ult (needs to be level 5), pop it as fast and often as possible, as soon as you see one getting the retreat flag, pop a blood curse on it and then avoid getting their stress to 0.

Could someone please detail how to increase the chances of making someone flee? I do not have Lost Soul yet and have gotten enemies stress bar fully empty several turns an nothing flees so far. Is it random should I just skip turns and wait for a single enemy to flee?

[Wendek]

Only the last enemy has a chance to flee depending on their sanity, so if you want to make someone flee you should send them away - that's where the Bride's skill is very useful since it moves the target back on top of increasing their flee chance.
One of the possible Insanity effects is "Cowardice" which also increases the chance to flee, but that's random so you can't really rely on it.

I use Dark Knight + Banshee and spam the banshee's AOE stress attack while allowing the dark knight to sit in his stance that allows him to stress attack any enemy that receives a debuff (requires spending an upgrade to change to triggering off debuffs). I see dozens of people fleeing combat this way.
