For those who haven't completed the Golden Pursuit of feeding as vampire yet, a tip:

Hey, for those who don’t want to bother with the feeding animation, here’s a little trick:

If you go to ESC -> Settings -> Camera -> Kill/Assassination Camera -> Off, you can disable the animation with the block.

If you quickly right-click when the feeding starts, you cancel half the process, and the NPC is considered dead due to vampirism.

It’s pretty useful for those who want to go through this process quickly!

    Personally, I never changed any settings and just cancel the animations by moving.

    Great tip, thank you! I’ve already finished mine this time, but the next time something like this comes along I’ll keep this in mind!

    I'm assuming you meant the task of feeding 50 times as a Vampire. Go to someone's house with a Soul-Sworn Thrall that you can feed on, and then just crouch there for 10 minutes hitting X. Easy task.

    If you meant the kill 100 Vampires task, plenty of places to do that; I like the Spellfiends in Spellscar.

    it's the feed one, true lol

    You know, I still preferred doing this in the Gold Coast, in Kvatch. There's this "circuit of NPCs in killable positions" where you can go around the city quickly taking them down. It's extremely fast because, from one NPC to another, there's no respawn time like with a Dummy, and with vampirism, you can reach each NPC quickly.

    (And you make a pretty decent amount of gold in the process—I made around 20k doing this. For a Golden Pursuit activity, it was definitely worth it lol.)

    I think using a Dummy is valid if the person has two blood targets in the house since while one is respawning, you can use the other. Otherwise, I find the respawn time a bit slow.

    Thanks very much for this, as I already had that setting but this task was still very, very tedious. Maybe 30 feeds instead of 50 would be less of a pain point.

    Still think switching off the animation is a great suggestion.

    It respawns almost instantly though.

    It's about 10 seconds between feeds, including the animation, so it's not that bad.
