Vanstrom klause is found in the Vampire catacombs South-East of Canifis. He is the final boss of the dungeon.
Weakness
Vanstrom klause is weak to any fire and silver type of damage and players will benefit from a 50% accuracy boost if they attack Vanstrom klause with proper damage type. It is also considered an undead monster which makes it immune to rot and poison type of damage but vulnerable to the salve amulet and undead slayer aura effects.
The fight
Vanstrom klause can attack with melee and blood blitzes. Blood blitzes are multi target and they will hit all players in the arena. It is advised to pray against magic and to stay away from melee distance through most of the fight.
At the beginning, Vanstrom klause will use regular attacks, however, every 3rd attack will be a vulnerability spell which will weaken your combat stats considerably. That attack can be dodged by moving of a single tile.
At 3000 hp, Vanstrom klause second mechanic starts. He will jump to the center of the arena saying "this has only just begun..." and spawn 4 minions. These minions attack the closest player and hit deceptively high. a player with high mage stats can be placed close to the center to aggro the minions. The use of multi combat style attacks is recommended to get rid of them as soon as possible. if the targeted players hp falls below 50% they become enraged and now their attacks also stun the target. During that time, vanstrom will attack with 3 blood blitzes. He will then shout out "I shall siphon your blood!!" and spawn around 30 blood siphons every 2,5 ticks. these siphons look similar to nex's siphons in her blood phase. these siphons can hit up to around ~30 hp through prayer. Once that mechanic done, he will resume attacking with blood blitzes. After 3-4 blitzes, he will shout "(the name of the player being focused), you shall not escape me!!" and run towards his target to attack him with fast melee attack. The target should protect melee if he is within reach. he will keep attacking with melee until he says "This is getting exhausting" and then resume with regular melee/mage pattern. If Vanstrom klause cannot reach his target, he will resume using blood blitzes. He will repeat these mechanics until he reaches 1600 hp.
At 2250 hp, Vanstrom klause will call Vanescula drakan to aid him. If the player has already killed her, he will get real grumpy and attack with rapid blood blitzes.
at 1600 hp Vanstrom klause will spawn minions again and ascend in his vampire form. This time he will do another special mechanic. After 2-3 blood blitzes, Vanstrom klause will say "zzzzzzzzzzz" and attack with rapid black clouds that deal ranged damage. protect from ranged is strongly advised as this special attack has the potential to kill you in a few hits. he will use this special attack twice before resuming his blood blitzes and no longer attack with melee. Through his blood blitzes he will choose a target and yell " (player's name), this is your end!!" and send a smoky skull towards the player. The skull will drain 20-30 prayer points and deal 13-18 damage through prayer every 3 tick for 5 hits. Through that attack he will keep attacking with blood blitzes. The only way to prevent damage from the smoky skull attack is to use a spirit shield special. Once the smoky skull gone he will retsart this mechanic until his death.
At 800 hp, Vanstrom klause will call Ranis drakan to aid him. If the player has already killed him, he will get real grumpy and attack with rapid blood blitzes.
