Vampyre Juvinate


 * See also: Vampyre Juvinate (disambiguation)

Vampyre Juvinates are monsters only found in east of Burgh de Rott, and are very similar to Vampires. Vampyre Juvinates cannot be killed by normal weapons. Instead, they can only be harmed by weak silver weapons (such as Silverlight, silver sickle(b), silver bolts, a blessed hatchet, or a Wolfbane dagger). When they get to half health or less, it is possible to use the special attack of the Rod of Ivandis or Ivandis flail to hold the Vampyre in place thus making a "Held Vampyre Juvinate". After this, a Guthix balance potion can be used for one of three outcomes:
 * The vampyre dies instantly, earning 100 prayer experience;
 * Becomes human again for a reward;
 * The Vampyre gets angry. When angry, its level increases (and therefore it's combat skills), but can be hurt by any weapon. If this happens, players are recommended to switch to their normal melee weapon, as the Rod of Ivandis' and Ivandis flail's attack bonuses are weak.

If a Guthix balance potion is not used, then the Juvinate will say "Ha ha, time to disappear and re-juvinate!", turn into a cloud of mist and float away when it reaches approximately 0 health. No drops will be received when this happens.

Vampyre juvinates seem weaker to the Rod of Ivandis and the Ivandis flail. Compared to a Wolfbane dagger, a rod seems to have a higher average hit on Juvinates, despite the lower strength and attack bonuses. The slightly slower speed, however, tends to make Wolfbane a more favourable choice. If a player has increased the attack strength of the Ivandis flail they are recommended to use it against the vampyre Juvinate.

Trivia

 * When Guthix balance potion makes Vampyres angry, they turn into a form which closely resembles Vampires, species closely related to Vampyres. They also lose their immunity to normal weapons. If killed then (and only then), they will count toward a vampire Slayer task.
 * There are Juvinate guards in the Sanguinesti Region that appear to have once been Vyrewatch but seem to have their wings removed or torn off.
 * Deflect curses seem to inflict damage on them. This may be a bug.
