Why is it so hard Get vampirism in this game? If you dont wait for nothing to spawn on a new moon then they do spawn and scarcity squads hit them so hard no one can even get a chance. then when you ask for someone to help you out and bite you they scam you and your screwed once again. I understand trolling. Hell i like trolling. But this is flat out ruining this game for me. Bethesda needs to fix this or i'm done with esotu. And if i do get it i'll give my entire guild a bite then we will give them out for free to everyone who asks. so that way the trolls get trolled.

Thanks for listening to my rant.

    If someone scams you I'd consider reporting them for it.

    Vampire and Werewolf are designed to be pretty rare at first. The skill lines are nice, but I've always felt they weren't really necessary until I'm swimming in extra skill points.

    Because ZOS doesn't like to learn form the past developments. This was the reason for much drama and frustration near the PC launch and they could have easily fixed it . They chose not to so you can now enjoy the same.

    Anyway the truth is that in the present state both WW and Vamp are kind of lame,dumb, worthless and mostly unnecessary No one should fret about them and should just be patient and wait.When they launched it on PC vamp was kind a big deal that influenced a lot of the PVP now it is not like that at all.

    Same thing happens on PC. It's the meta. It wasn't unheard of people spending upwards of 10k for a vamp/werewolf bite in the earlier days.

    Now if someone tells you they'll bite you and you pay before you receive, that's your own fault. Yet against the TOS so a report would be in order. As a former Eve player I am all for that kind of deceit, but ZoS is not.

    you know that most people will bite you for free, right? On PC at least. You consolers are probably going to have the problem we did a long time ago if it hasn't happened yet already :P

    Just go to area where you can get the bite during regular play and you don't need to ask anyone.

    You guys know it really isn't a big deal right?

    Yea. It was meant to be super hard to get on your own, kind of a forwArd thinking strategy on player interaction and spread.
    I tried getting a werewolf to bite me during PC launch and absolutely no luck for weeks, until someone in Chat literally offered a free bite.

    No one on console would do that trust me. As a former Master Race member let me say the pc community is alot better than console. Console is infested with ignorant inmature trolls. that if they do have if they scam you and if they dont they scam you anyways. If i gotta go buy a new computer for the first time in 4 years just so i can play want i will. but i'm hoping i dont gotta.

    and plus going to the area is useless. Kill squads and high levels prevent anyone they dont want to have it from gettiung it. So this [snip] about "go there and wait" isn't gonna work.

    Yeah people would try and stop people from getting bites but I can tell you it is still easy to get. Just have to have a little initiative. People want everything NOW, want it to be EASY, so glad am old now. Hate to see how this generation hates to work just a little to get what they want.

    Really people play the game have fun and get the bite, believe me it will feel so much better getting it the way the game designed it. At least it did for me.

    Problem is that it wont stop and trust me I understand your views on this gen. But in all honesty i got my frustrations out and i've decide i'm done. People are kill squading it and asking for psn cash now and i know how this goes. I dealt with it on wow and alot of other games. Its no different than Gold sellers on FF14. So i'm done with this game. If they wanna ruin it for everyone its fine with me. But I'm a father of two so i aint got the time to rage about this all the time.

    you are full right, if i was involved in development, i would push to put vampirism and wherewolf in character creation, becouse let me say... this is an rpg and a customers need a way to enjoy what he like; instead more i know the game, more i find out how strange decision was made by the developers.

    This is the exact same thing that happens in the PC game. It was much worse when the game launched. There were kill squads camping the spawns on their appearance night and killing them so they could keep the price of selling a bite to other players high.

    Over time, enough vampire/werewolf only guilds were created and offering new members free bites and made mandates to give a free bite to any other player asking for one, and advertise free bites any time they saw someone else looking to sell theirs. Eventually the price of bites went down and more and more people were offering them for free.

    A long time ago, about a month or a little more after PC released, a bunch of us asked ZOS to make the spawn immortal so they couldn't be killed, but they didn't want to do it.. so blame ZOS.

    It should be rare, same with Werewolf. These are game changing/defining decisions that strongly impact your character. I would hate this to become a "everyone can do this SUPER EASILY" thing.

    I like that these are somewhat difficult to get right now, and I hope it stays that way.

    ...and before anyone thinks I might be trying to raise the price in bites, I am not infected by neither (vamp or wolf) and eventually I will want both on alts. I still think it should remain rare, despite the fact that I might struggle to get infected when I choose to do so.

    If you are right i'll apologize on here publicly. But it wont change trust me. I've seen this other forums where they are charging psn cash in upwards of 40$ for one bite. They are working it like a auction. And people are buying it. LoL

    Yeh this sounds too familiar.
    Not sure how accurate these maps are, but there are multiple spawn points for ww/vamp. Hopefully they don't have them All covered. Something to try at any rate. I think there's actually more but I'd have to be able to put stuff from Destinations addon here lol.

    Find one. Ask. I tryed all day after the kill squads dominated the new moon today. None said yes and the ones who did wanted to be payed when you contacted them on psn. I even had one say that he would only do it for 20$ psn and i had to pay him first(scammer).

    I suggest if you see those threads, to make a screenshot of them and send an email to customer support with the website url, and the screen shot and the game username the player is using so they can investigate. If that person is selling a bite for real money, it is against the TOS and they will get banned for it when they are caught.
