Tier I[]
IThe Riftstalker Bloodfiend constantly drains 0.5 ❤ Hearts every second. Every few seconds[More Info Needed], or if the player is too far away, it will enter its Spectral Form to move. It will return back to normal once it lands. Once the boss is at half health, it will use its Mania ability, becoming immune for 22 seconds. A circle of red blocks will spawn, along with a green ring inside of it. The player must stand in the green ring to not get their 2 ❤ Hearts taken. Being outside of the 13 blocks circle incurs 3 ❤ Hearts every second. As a vampire, when at or below 125 ❤ Health, it takes +1000 ❁ Rift Damage when attacked by a player with a Steak Stake.
Tier II[]
IIInstead of draining 0.5 ❤ Hearts every second and taking away 2 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania, the boss now drains 1 ❤ Hearts every second and takes away 3 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania. Now, the Mania phase starts upon the boss reaching 60% health. Every 7 seconds, a pair of Twinclaws spawn, with one in front of the boss and one behind the boss. The frontal claw is shot towards one of the players fighting the boss, and takes away 3 ❤ Hearts upon hitting any players fighting the boss. The boss also spawns Clotgoyles that reduce the player's maximum ❤ Hearts by 1 after their Mania ability. After the Clotgoyles are killed, the hearts are returned to the player. They will respawn unless hit by the Riftstalker Bloodfiend's Stonewrath. As a vampire, when at or below 220 ❤ Health, it takes +1000 ❁ Rift Damage when attacked by a player with a Steak Stake.
Tier III[]
IIIInstead of taking away 3 ❤ Hearts per Twinclaws attack and 3 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania, the boss now takes away 5 ❤ Hearts per Twinclaws attack and 5 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania. The boss has 2 Mania attacks now, starting at 75% ❤ Health and 40% ❤ Health. During Mania attacks, the boss uses its Impel ability, during which players have to complete the boss's order (one of the following: CLICK UP, CLICK DOWN, JUMP, SNEAK) within 2s, or else 5 ❤ Hearts are taken away. After the first Mania attack, the boss starts the Stonewrath ability. After the second Mania attack, the boss launches a spring made of candles to a nearby location. It can be compacted by clicking on it while alternating left and right click. The spring must be fully compacted within 15s or everything explodes and all players fighting it die. As a vampire, when at or below 360 ❤ Health, it takes +1000 ❁ Rift Damage when attacked by a player with a Steak Stake.
Tier IV[]
IVInstead of taking away 5 ❤ Hearts per Twinclaws attack, 5 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania and 3 ❤ Hearts when out of the Mania circle, the boss now takes away 6 ❤ Hearts hearts for each of these attacks. The Twinclaws attack can now be used during the Mania attacks. As a vampire, when at or below 480 ❤ Health, it takes +1000 ❁ Rift Damage when attacked by a player with a Steak Stake.
Tier V[]
VInstead of taking away 6 ❤ Hearts per Twinclaws attack, 6 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania, 5 ❤ Hearts per failed Impel and draining 1 ❤ Hearts per second, the boss now takes away 8 ❤ Hearts per Twinclaws attack, 15 ❤ Hearts per failed Mania, 20 ❤ Hearts per failed Impel and drains 1.5 ❤ Hearts per second. The boss has a new Blood Ichor attack, which frequently spawns an ichor nearby which must be destroyed within 25s. When Twinclaws are thrown towards the Blood Ichor, it breaks. As a vampire, when at or below 600 ❤ Health, it takes +1000 ❁ Rift Damage when attacked by a player with a Steak Stake.
Tips[]
- Due to
Unfanged Vampire Part being relatively common, and gear for this slayer not being particularly expensive or difficult to obtain, regardless of player's progress outside of the Rift Dimension, fighting Tier IVor TierVof Riftstalker Bloodfiend can be quite a good way to grind coins. - The cadavers left by killing Clotgoyles may not show up when using certain entity culling mods. The most common cause of this is the Patcher mod on Minecraft 1.8.9, which can generally be fixed by enabling the "Check Armorstand Rules" option in its settings.
Bugs[]
- When playing on Minecraft 1.20 or above, the sounds from the Killer Spring ability on Tier 3 and above may overload Minecraft's sound engine, resulting in all game sounds being completely muted for a few seconds.
- This can be alleviated by muting the entity.wither.spawn sound using a mod (such as Sound Controller) or a resource pack. The mod SkyHanni also provides an option to mute excess sounds without muting wither sounds entirely.
Trivia[]
- The Motes dropped from the Riftstalker Bloodfiend can exactly pay off the cost of starting the Slayer Quest.
- As such, this slayer has potential to guarantee profit both inside the Rift Dimension and out. The Vampiric Melons, Splatter Cruxes dropped by spawning mobs can be sold for Motes. The boss drops and the Hemovibes can be sold outside the Rift Dimension for Coins.
- The lore of Impels is that after getting bitten by a vampire, the vampire can do mind controls to its target.
