The Vampire Attacks
  • 1 of 4: During various points at night in Chapters Two and Three, you will be attacked by many vampires on the streets.
  • 2 of 4: This especially happens after you've allied yourself with the Shadow Thieves.
  • 3 of 4: Normally you will have the option of avoiding the fight, but not always.
  • 4 of 4: Vampires are pretty tough foes, so be sure to remember to go to a temple to restore any lost levels after fighting them.  Having Negative Plane Protection cast on your main fighter also helps.
