    in what situation?

    using vampire feed on an NPC?
    biting another player at a shrine?

    i believe other players can see the animation play out in both cases

    NPCs can also see players doing a vampire feed as well (which will cause a bounty in this case)

    i have my main house (grand topal hideaway) listed in the housing tours, it has multiple target dummies, scribing altar, and grandmaster stations (in progress being filled out), as well as almost every antiquity furnishing on display to preview them

    feel free to stop by and use the facilities

    Hi Necrotech_Master

    using vampire feed on an NPC? I'm aware that other NPC's can see what is happening. But I'm not sure that other players can also see it. Mainly because I've never seen it happen. And unlike a player stabbing an NPC, a vampire could be some distance away. This question also stands in the case of an assassin throwing 'The Blade of Woe'. I've done both but never have I seen anyone else do it?

    in that case im pretty sure its possible to see another player do that, since you can see other players use the blade of woe

    at the same time though, its easy to break the animation of that at the same time (the person doing the blade of woe or feed can interact with the dead npc early to kind of animation cancel the rest of it)

    No, you misunderstand me, I'm not saying I can see them. what I said was...

    This question also stands in the case of an assassin throwing 'The Blade of Woe'.

    Meaning the original question...

    'can anyone else see them?'

    As I have never seen anyone either throwing the Blade of Woe or feeding.

    As for...(its easy to break the animation etc) I'm afraid that you have lost me here.

    yes, you can definitely see other players use blade of woe or vampire feed on an NPC

    the animation is short though so very easy to miss, and for me personally i usually only hit the NPCs that are extremely isolated, as in theres not even other players nearby

    as for the animation canceling, if you blade of woe or vampire feed an enemy and they have a lootable corpse, if you loot the body while still in the animation it will cancel the rest of the animation (allowing you to move sooner after using the blade of woe or vamp feed instead of being locked into the animation)
