Vampire...too weak in Extended
Even Mu can easily get all runes(http://lazy-life.ddo.jp:8080/morgue/rad ... 025628.txt), but Vp without kiku have a very hard time.
If you play vampire, you have 3 options.
(1) full, alive
There is no reason to play alive vampire.
It is sure that alive vampire have a boost to regen, but it's very very small. And vampiric bite is not strong.
If you want to play stabber, you should not select alive vampire. Should select small races or VS.
If you want to play UC/magic and stealthy hybrid, you should not select alive vampire. Should select Mf, Na, VS. Even Gh, Mi or Tr are correct choice.
(2) Near Bloodless
You have rN+++, but regenerate slowly.
rN+++ is very good for torment, but not enough.
You still take 35% dmg. It is a big dmg, so you want more regeneration.
But regenerate slowly.
If you choose Gh or Mu, you have a complete immunity to torment, and regenerate normally.
(3) Bloodless
You have a complete immunity to torment, but stop regeneration.
Torment immunity is great at extended, but stop regeneration is always BAD BAD BAD BAD.
Some people say Bloodless vampire of Makhleb have a easy time at extended because of full resistance and passive healing.
But I lose Bloodless vampire even at Abyss(http://lazy-life.ddo.jp:8080/morgue/rad ... 063453.txt).
So I concluded that Bloodless vampire of Makhleb is not easy.
Vampire IS NOT Deep Dwarf.
Vampire do not have a dmg reduction(But have a torment immunity), wand of heal wounds, and good HP.
Again. If you choose Gh or Mu, you have a complete immunity to torment, and regenerate normally.
