Important!

You must have SourceMod and MetaMod installed on your server before following this guide. If you do not have them yet, check out our guides on installing them first.

10. How Vampirism Works In-Game

You can either heal passively or manually trigger a blood frenzy! By getting kills, you will build up a “blood meter.” Once you hit the required kills, open your chat and type:

!vampire

Typing the !vampire command in text chat, triggering a message that 5 kills are needed to activate Vampire Level 1

(As seen in the screenshot below, the game will notify you in chat if you haven’t secured enough kills to activate the ability yet!)
