Gameplay tips
Don't walk around in vampire form: swap forms constantly. Scout with the bat (mobility) or the wolf (it leaves survivor scent orbs).
Don't use vampire form except to throw fire: the wolf is better (two dashes to injure from range, it drops orbs, refreshes the dash and sprints at 4.8 m/s for a second).
At mid range use the wolf (they leave orbs for you and you hit with the dash); if they gain a lot of distance, switch to the bat to close it.
