Vampyre dust

Vampire dust is dropped by vampires and is used for summoning vampire bats. To kill vampires, players are recommended to wear a Holy symbol, since it greatly weakens vampires; some players choose higher-powered amulets instead.

One excellent place to obtain vampire dust is by killing vampires east of the Abandoned Mine. Players with access to the bank in Burgh de Rott can bank quickly; partial completing of In Aid of the Myreque is required.

Vampire dust is also a possible drop from Spirit impling.

Some players with combat level 105 or higher prefer the Haunted Woods, since the leeches there are not aggressive to players at these levels. However, the vampires are more spread out in the woods, so more running is involved in hunting them there. The Haunted Woods also has a moderately close bank via Port Phasmatys' western entrance and can be accessed via the Fairy ring network. Partial completion of Ghosts Ahoy is required for access to Port Phasmatys.

Vampires can also be found in various parts of the God Wars Dungeon, but the remoteness and requirements for this dungeon make it less than ideal for dust seekers.

The price of vampire dust has fluctuated greatly over time. Before the advent of summoning, vampire dust have no use and little value. The price shot up over 1,000 coins once summoning was released. When the Soul Wars minigame, was released, the price collapsed to 300 coins. Vampire dust is a possible gamble reward in the game, which lead to increased supplies being put on the market. The price slowly recovered a bit since then. In recent weeks the price soared for unknown reasons, perhaps the results of price manipulation clans or heavy demand from players training summoning but has recently begun to decline rapidly. To date, the price of Vampire Dust is.
