 '''Vampire's Tooth'''<ref>{{source ref|0.30.0|art-data.txt|278}}</ref> is a highly enchanted quick blade that provides ''massive'' healing when fighting [[natural]] or [[plant]] targets. It's a strong weapon if found sufficiently early enough. Reaching mindelay is not required due to the sheer amount of healing from this item.
-However, by the time you reach [[Zot]], you'll likely want to use a [[quick blade]] of [[distortion]] or [[chaos]] instead. From Zot onward, most of the dangerous enemies are immune to vampirism. In addition, as the Vampire's Tooth lacks a flat damage brand by default, its damage output will begin to suffer when compared to distortion. It also shares the weaknesses of all quick blades: it takes 20 skill to reach mindelay, and it suffers against high [[AC]] opponents.

 [[Stabbing]] specialists in particular can make excellent use of this weapon, as not only will it deal grievous damage to stab-able enemies, but it will also heal you for the full stab damage whenever the vampirism triggers. This can work particularly well if you have a means of setting up a stab mid-fight ([[throwing net]]s, a [[wand of paralysis]], [[Hexes]], [[Invisibility]], etc.), allowing you to quickly heal up from any beatings you've taken thus far.

 The Vampire's Tooth can sometimes be found in a [[vault]] guarded by depth-dependent vampiric monsters (ranging from [[vampire bat]]s to [[tyrant leech]]es to [[vampire (monster)|vampires]] and [[vampire knight]]s). This vault can appear early in the [[Dungeon]], potentially giving players access to a quick blade well before they would normally begin to appear.
