Vampire Wars Improving Defensive Abilities Guide

Improved Attack / Defense Ability List for Zynga Facebook Game App

Aug 15, 2009 Bradley Kairis

Zynga's social networking Facebook App Vampire Wars game has upgradable abilities that increase attack and defense. See the full list of improved defensive abilities.

Abilities in the social-networking Facebook Game Application Vampire Wars are used during combat when attacking and defending. When attacking, the attack stat is used, while when defending, the defense stat is used. The amount of abilities used in each category is equal to the number of members in the clan. A player with 20 clan members, for example, will use 20 offensive abilities, 20 defensive abilities, and 20 movement abilities in combat. The most powerful abilities are used automatically.

A new Vampire Wars update by Zynga has allowed players the option to upgrade / improve certain abilities for higher attack and defense. Upgrading costs blood, and upgraded abilities typically have high blood upkeep, meaning a high blood flow from many dominated minions is required to sustain higher-level upgraded abilities.

Read below for lists of all the stats of upgraded defensive abilities in Vampire Wars.

Cost to Buy and Upgrade Defensive Abilities

Below is a list of how much it costs to upgrade each defensive ability. "Buy" is how much the ability costs to purchase, "Improve" is how much the ability costs to improve while the % before is how much the ability is improved at a time.

The ability will not improve to the next level until it reaches 100%. Abilities may only be improved once every 24 hours, unless purchased with Favor Points.

  • Fast Healing: Buy 6,000 - Improve 20% for 60,000
  • Better Fast Healing: Buy 30,000 - Improve 20% for 120,000
  • Greater Fast Healing: Buy 60,000 - Improve 20% for 240,000
  • Superior Fast Healing: Buy 120,000 - (cannot improve)

  • Impervious: Buy 20,000 - Improve 10% for 200,000
  • Better Impervious: Buy 100,000 - Improve 10% for 400,000
  • Greater Impervious: Buy 200,000 - Improve 10% for 800,000
  • Superior Impervious: Buy 400,000 - (cannot improve)
Attack and Defense Ability Improvement

Improving abilities to the next level will increase the attack and defense of that ability. The following is a list of all the upgraded / improved abilities from the defensive category.

  • Fast Healing: 2 Attack - 4 Defense - Blood Upkeep 0
  • Better Fast Healing: 7 Attack - 9 Defense - Blood Upkeep -100
  • Greater Fast Healing: 17 Attack - 19 Defense - Blood Upkeep -400
  • Superior Fast Healing: 34 Attack - 38 Defense - Blood Upkeep -1,200

  • Impervious: 4 Attack - 8 Defense - Blood Upkeep -400
  • Better Impervious: 9 Attack - 13 Defense - Blood Upkeep -4,000
  • Greater Impervious: 19 Attack - 23 Defense - Blood Upkeep -16,000
  • Superior Impervious: 38 Attack - 46 Defense - Blood Upkeep -48,000
Blood Upkeep Cost in Bulk

Except in the case of rare abilities, abilities are not used just one or two at a time. Players should keep the amount of their highest ability equal to their clan size to maximize both attack and defense potential. One Superior Impervious won't help significantly. However, having 25, 50, 100, 250, or 500 will. Below is a long-term list of how much the best defensive upgradable ability, Superior Impervious, will cost in blood upkeep.

  • 1 Superior Impervious: -48,000
  • 25 Superior Impervious: -1,200,000
  • 50 Superior Impervious: -2,400,000
  • 100 Superior Impervious: -4,800,000
  • 250 Superior Impervious: -12,000,000
  • 500 Superior Impervious: -24,000,000

It's best to wait and purchase plenty of minions until the blood upkeep is satisfied before upgrading or purchasing improved abilities. Make sure to have well more than enough blood flow to satisfy the upkeep, that way the extra blood can be used to purchase and improve offensive and movement abilities.

Upgraded Defensive Abilities Conclusion

While it may take an absurd amount of time and blood to improve abilities, fully improved abilities have better attack and defense than most of the rare abilities, and really gives the player the edge in combat.

You should include a guide on the Movement abilities. I still don't know what the blood cost for Superior Flight is... though I will in 3 days when I finally get mine improved to Superior. Superior Mist is 1.4 mil... betting Flight is 2 mil.
