leapinlizrd Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 I'm new to temple trekking, but i was killing juv vamps and wanted to see what this guthix balance potion did. (couldn't find a list of rewards or much information) I got about 4-5 on the encounter and killed 1-2 before i could time it to use the potion (hitting too hard). First two vamps turned human and gave me some lame rewards (noted iron skirt, something mithril). Third vamp i use the potion on turned into a mutated or mutant vampire. Looked like a regular vampire on steroids and it's muscles were probably 2x the size of my guy and a little taller. If I knew how to do screen shots, I would have gotten one. But anyways, all the text i read said was that they turned human or into regular vampires. Anyone else seen these? I'll be doing more trekking. Trying to get lumberjack stuff. Also, would like to know where to do submissions here incase i run into one again. (drop was just vampire dust) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Vampyre Juvinates As you have learnt in In Aid of the Myreque, you need a silver weapon to fight vampyres. To kill or even hit vampyres, you should use the Rod of Ivandis. Attack with this, or a sickle until the vampyre is at half health. When you are at this stage, use the staff's special attack to hold the vampyre. While the vampyre is paralysed, quickly use some Guthix Balance on him. Doing so will either kill him, cure him or make him angry and stronger!Those are your outcomes of using the potion. It's happened to me also, which is frustrating, to say the least. In real life MMO you don't get 99 smithing by making endless bronze daggers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupportMage Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Here's a tip: the full Vampires aren't immune to conventional weapons. It's frustrating to have happen, but if it does just lay waste to him with something big and pointy, and preferably dark red. Still alive, still alive.

Rien Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Guthix Balance potions, when used on bound Juvinates, can either kill them outright, cause them to revert into humans, or "anger" them and make them transform into feral Vampires (this has the effect of increasing their combat levels by 10, but, at the same time, causes for them to lose their immunity to normal weapons). As SupportMage said, you can make quick work of them should you encounter them again. http://tip.it/runescape/index.php?rs2monster_id=659 ^^I believe this is the Vampire in question.

Jammy2222 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Oh stop complaining. Its always worth using the potion. It either: Gets cured (good) Dies (good) Gets fully healed, but loses immunity to non silver weapons (meh). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will H Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 That's the third outcome from giving the potion, but luckily they're far easier to deal with than the original juvinate because they lose their non-silver immunity. Obviously killing them outright or curing them are the better outcomes, but you know how Guthix is. Just think of them as an NPC in normal conditions, and suddenly they're not as troublesome as they would originally have you believe. It's still worth using the whole flail/rod special balance force-feeding ritual thingy instead of making them flee. ~ W ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saradomin_Mage Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 But if they do turn to the Angry Vampire, you're getting nothing as a drop from them. It is worse in this one case.

Jard_Y_Dooku Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 You get Vampire dust. That's SOMETHING. :) Never trust anyone. You are always alone, and betrayal is inevitable.Nothing is safe from the jaws of the decompiler. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leapinlizrd Posted June 21, 2009 Author Share Posted June 21, 2009 Yeah, vamp dust is something... Something to be left on the ground :thumbdown: But thanks for the info. Main reason for asking was it wasn't listed in the monster database. I hope someone will submit what they know about them for an update to it.
