Vampire Wars Facebook Guide

Vampire Wars is a Facebook game that includes rich artwork, many missions to complete, an exciting combat system, and a variety of fun features that make the game truly unique. If you want to build a strong character and advance through the game successfully, there are several things that
you need to know.
Combat

Above all else, Vampire Wars is a combat game. After creating a character, you can be attacked by other players. You can even be attacked if you close the game and remain logged into Facebook. The more you play and level up, the more often you will be attacked. This can be bothersome, as attacks from other players cause you to you lose blood, skill points, health and even lives. So how does one deal with the combat system while maintaining an enjoyable gaming experience? Here are some tips and tricks to help you through the game:

Give your character a strong foundation

When you begin Vampire Wars, you will start with 10 energy, 3 rage, 100 health and 6,000 blood. Your attack will be 1 and your defense will be 1. As you complete missions and level up, you will be awarded skill points. These skill points can be allocated to your attack, defense, energy, rage and health.

In the beginning, it is best to allocate points to your energy, which will allow you to earn blood and purchase abilities and minions. As you advance, you’re your character against other players and add to your attack and defense accordingly. If you want to fight immediately, allocate skill points to your rage, attack and defense.

Grow your clan as fast as you can!

The more clan members you have, the more abilities you can fight and defend with. You can fight and defend with up to 501 clan members, including yourself. Growing a large clan as quickly as you can is very beneficial because it will give you an edge over players with smaller clans. You will also have more clan members to assist you with missions, item bonuses, voting and more.

There are countless Facebook groups devoted to growing clans quickly. Join these groups and add as many clan members as you want. The process may be slow at first, but once you get the ball rolling, the friend requests will come streaming in.

Getting minions

Every minion that you dominate will increase your income. Invest in minions early to prepare yourself for buying higher level abilities, special limited edition abilities, items from the avatar shop and gaining magic power-ups from Mandy.

Every time you buy a minion, the new price for that minion will increase. It is best to buy minions in groups of 5 or 10, but preferably 10. This will save you great amounts of blood as you progress through the game.

Using zombie mode

When a player is under 20 health, they are in “zombie mode”. A player under 20 health cannot be attacked, so use zombie mode to your advantage.

One technique for remaining unbothered while doing missions is to log into the game and immediately fight until you are under 20 health. When your health rises above 20, fight yourself under 20 again.

Another zombie mode technique can aid you in combat. Release a string of attacks, with your last attack leaving your health under 20. This takes some practice, and requires you to have an abundant supply of rage, so remember to allocate sufficient skill points to rage. Those who wish to attack you back or put you on the hitlist will not be able to do so, unless they can catch you when you are out of zombie mode.

Avoid leveling up too quickly

Those who focus on leveling up quickly can find themselves vulnerable among players with more powerful abilities and larger clans. The game can be very exciting, especially with the element of interactivity associated with Facebook, but try to progress slowly by exploring the other aspects of the game. Invest in minions, gamble with Mandy,

Don’t forget to bank your blood

Make it a point to deposit your blood earnings in the blood bank, and do this very frequently. When you bank your blood, 10% of that blood will be burned off and lost, but once this blood is banked, it cannot be taken away when you are attacked.

Have no mercy!

Ok, I know there is a lot of good guide to combat out there. So I am mostly going to offer links to those guides.

Here is one I like since it breaks down the math very well: http://forums.zynga.com/showthread.php?t=130047.

But if that is too much math, I will try to explain very simply.

You use different abilities to fight then you do to defend. The abilities used are the ones with the highest attack number when you fight, and the highest defense when you defend.

Now, what is the quickest way to see what you use when you fight? Look at you stats page and what you see highlighted in red, and that is what is being used in fights.

What is the quickest way to know what you are using in defense? Have a clan mate look at your stat page and tell you which ones are highlighted in red.

To help players figure out I will start a discussion board with this topic.

I have help clanmates in the past and I will look at their stats page and take a screen shot with the firefox add-on Aviary. Here is a link to their software: http://aviary.com/. This helps since they can always look back to see which abilities they are using, and I find it quicker then listing everything out.
