Of course I mean the ones in the Rift that can turn you into a vampire. If so, where was it?

Mordenkaiser✭✭They may have cranked down the spawn rates, vampires are spreading quite fast just through players now as it is. Also I imagine Vampire bite sellers (whom often know where they spawn) are going out of their way to kill them during the magic hours.
As a vampire, I don't sell bites and I don't just give em to people because "I want it!" I expect some degree of actual RPG in my MMORPG's, so I encourage that behavior and reward it. I'm not saying people that want to be vampires are all power gaming munchkins, I'm more disappointed that such a rich RP opportunity has become more of a min-maxing measure.
For those of you thinking it'll make you god on earth, as a max level vampire, I can assure you it will not make you such. Also for those of you thinking "I need to get vampire early so I can max it out soon" I also would say your worries are unfounded, It took me about 8 levels of character progression to max out vampire."Serve me in death, and let Sithis be your shepherd"1 -
2 straight days of WW's being everywhere then a day of nothing. Hoping tonight there is a spawn of Bloodfiends. So tired of this terrible mechanic. Especially the selling of bites and the players scamming one another. It made The Rift a terrible zone to be in. I cant wait to never go back.0

Melian✭✭✭✭I want it mostly because it suits the image I have of one of my three main characters. I definitely won't buy it: I want to get bitten in the "wild", no matter how long that takes. However, I'm getting tired of camping spawn points and seeing nothing: if the spawns have been turned off, I'd rather be leveling.0

Excellent post, couldn't have expressed the sentiment better myself.
