Hi i have only just started playing with a vampire team and have had the good fortune of rolling a double with a vampire who already has pro. What would you get next? Thanks |

Hard one. SF is always good. NoS perhaps, if you like that sort of thing. Jump Up? |

so many good possibilities.
in the end I'd probably take frenzy. |

Frenzy perhaps, or ignore the double and give him block. |

One frenzy vampire is nice just for making crowdpushing more viable. Jump Up is great too. Stand Firm is nice, but it would be nicer if not for the easy availability of Side Step. I'd lean towards Frenzy or Jump Up. |

In my experience, i'd highly favor stand firm. Stand firm is a solid skill, and it lets vamps try to dodge freely, which really helps in making fancy hippy gaze plays. Ag 4 stand firm lets you try some fun things safely. Side step just doesn't cut it, while nice defensively, the ability to safe dodge with ag4 is just too good.

You HAVE TO get a FRENZY.
On others doubles, STANDFIRM is a really good choice has the player have 4St (which is eyesome with SF) and keep you from rerollings dodges, and best of it tie the players that want to block him.
But it's capital to get a frenzy vampire. at least to hit your opponent as hard as he hit you ... and last but not the least, it let's you make holes in the defence. |

ok stand firm is good if you use hypnotic gaze as well, but i dont see why everyone likes it so much, i havent used it once, how do you use it so effectively? and if not stand frim then frenzy? |

Frenzy would be dangerous though, if he hasn't got block yet. |

frenzy says to me - block yourself into trouble.
where as stand firm says - yey! crazy dodges! |

give him block or stand firm.... without block he's already in danger.... with frenzy you increase just the probability he dies |
