Upgraded vampirism - when triggered, vampiric always heals for full damage dealt instead of the usual 1d(Damage).[1]
Desirability
Vampire's Tooth[2] is a highly enchanted quickblade. And, when fighting natural or plant targets, Vampire's Tooth provides a massive amount of healing. It is a very powerful weapon, but, like all Short Blades, it can fall short against high AC enemies. Might, or high amounts of slaying, can help punch through the toughest of armour.
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 nets, 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 bats to tyrant leeches to vampires and vampire knights). This vault can appear early in the Dungeon, potentially giving players access to a quick blade well before they would normally begin to appear.
