Hey bellsdelsol got a question for you.Umm im going through extreme now and am wondering what is the strat that you use to get by vamp.I always start out good but then when i get half of his power down he kicks my ass.Any good hints.Should i be moving to avoid his knifes or stand in a position an attempt to shoot them down.

Well this is what I do when trying not to kill him. The first thing I do is get out the m9 and when he spins around shoot him in the bullet hole on his right side (which is left from your perspective). When he goes into the pool get out the socom and shoot the lights out on the left and right sides of the room. He will jump out of the pool and up on top and will walk towards the corner of the room and throw on knife. I stand in place in first person view with the m9 drawn. after he throws the knife duck to avoid it then shoot him (I ussually aim for the bullet hole in his side). Then he goes to the other side of the room and does it again, just do the same as before. Then I think he runs at you. I hate this part so I just jump down on the ledge in the pool until he starts walking towards you all red. Get up and he will jump back in the pool. Then he does the three seperate single throws and the final throwing while he moves across the room. Do these throws the same by looking at him with m9 and duck when he throws the knife and shoot. After he does the knives across the room part try and be right under him when he is done. Some times he does a spin and a clap. If he does this it is a great time to shoot him in the bullet hole in the side. just keep doing that and after half way he gets pissed (as I call it). When he does this he will start doing 2 different sets of moves. One of the movies he does is jumping out of the pool and lands on the platform across from you and then runs at you and heads for the wall behind you. I usually try and hit him when he is comming at me. If you are lucky enough to hit him the first time watch where he goes cause he will come at you again (mostly from the opposite side as before, but not always). Then he goes back in the pool and jumps back out for the double/single knife throw that he uses. You have to be a little picky here when trying to go for him. If he is across the room from you (not right above you) what I do is get into first person with the m9 out aiming at him. When he throws the double set of knives wait til the second is thrown and duck real fast. Then before he throws the thrid knife get back up and when he throws that duck again and fire at his head or the bullet hole in his side. I am warning you that if he is close this is near impossible becuase of the angle he will throw the knives. So if he gets up close, you need abort the shot and run and flip when he throws his knives (I tend to stay as far away from him when doing this). Then when you get him down far enough he starts his flip around the room until you have no idea where he is. I usually get as far back on a wall (the sides that vamp sticks on earlier in the battle). When he comes out of the pool just stay in first person view with the m9 ready. Keep an eye on him if you can. He will eventually stop flipping and throw about 5 or 6 knives. At this time you wait til you think he threw the last knife and duck and either shoot him (if you have a shot) or stand back up and shoot him. Eventually you will get him. keep practicing and good luck.
