There are many different vampire types, from the sanguine to the nocturne. There is also a variety of weapons and tactics you can use against them in game. This article will go over some fundamental strategies for surviving as long as possible with your win rates getting better every day!
Vampire Survivors, an indie roguelike that pits tens of thousands of players against the never-ending forces of darkness in a frenzied race to survive long enough, has gained traction. Death will come for us all in the end, but there are a few strategies you should keep in mind to keep your hero alive for a little longer so you can unlock the next level.
Garlic is all over the place.
Garlic is a divisive topic among Vampire Survivors, with some claiming it makes it difficult to burn down bosses and others claiming it drives close-range fighting. We don’t have those reservations: garlic should be unlocked on the third or fourth run, depending on how well the RNG is working in their favor, and it should soon become the go-to item for swiftly dispatching hordes while keeping your hero safe.

Garlic pushes opponents back and injures them, forming a barrier between the hero and the mob of zombies clawing at his face. Poe Ratcho, the sixth unlockable hero, specializes in the garlic AoE. Increasing the level of the garlic item to level 3 through item drops and level-ups lets the player to easily shred most swarms of foes, providing for a blisteringly fast start to many runs.
Don’t be concerned.
Expect to die tens of thousands of times if this is your first roguelike. This is how Vampire Survivors progresses, enabling gamers to return to the menu and buy power-ups. Accepting this allows players to keep a level head while zombie walls close in around them. When you panic while being mobbed, you will die quickly.

While you wait for walls of foes to start exhibiting openings that you can squeeze through, move gingerly between crowds and kite them about. If you have a shield that provides a few moments of invulnerability on touch, wait until it activates before dashing over the line’s narrowest point. Pushing foes, on the other hand, may swiftly deplete your shield, and pushing an enemy might result in a fast death.
There are circles everywhere.
Many gamers’ initial inclination may be to flee from large groups of foes. This is counterproductive: players must collect gems in order to level up, making them more capable of dealing with the latter levels.
Instead, kite in circles with varying radiuses based on the size of the mob you’re kiting. Keep an eye on where your auto-attacks are killing foes, and progressively kite the mobs away from that location to swoop into the centre. Keep the enemy as close together as possible, add more foes to the central mob, and keep whittling them down as you go.

Keep in mind that various levels have distinct movement methods. For example, the first map, Mad Forest, has an endless expanse on all sides, offering the player unrivaled mobility. This freedom of mobility, however, is paid for by foes on all four sides. Inlaid Library, on the other hand, only allows for left and right movement. Make the necessary adjustments.
Die, spend, and then repeat.
While death is often in Vampire Survivors, it also brings the opportunity to spend cash on upgrading your characters or even unlocking new heroes. You’ll find that after hundreds of deaths, you’ve gradually improved your heroes to the point that you’re pushing much further into levels than you previously believed feasible.
With each kill, you get closer to putting a stop to the zombie horde once and for all.
