The Vyrewatch are the vampyric vanguard that receive blood tithes from the population of Morytania and suppress any resistance to the Drakan overlords. They patrol the skies as both soldiers and lords of Meiyerditch and will ask any human, including the player, that catches their attention for a blood tithe.

Vyrewatch have combat levels ranging from 110 to 140. Vyrewatch can be fought; however, they are completely impervious to most weapons and poisons, although they can be poisoned by a Dreadnip, but they are only vulnerable to the Ivandis flail and Blisterwood weapons.

When killed, they will always drop a Vyre corpse. They never drop Vyrewatch clothing despite obviously wearing it. The Vyre corpse they drop can be cremated in the Paterdomus Columbarium. See Legacy of Seergaze for more details about cremating Vyre corpses.

Vyrewatch can be aggressive towards or suspicious of the player based on location:

• In most places in Morytania, Vyrewatch are aggressive unless the player is wearing a Darkmeyer disguise.
• In Meiyerditch, Vyrewatch are suspicious of the player unless the player is wearing a Darkmeyer disguise. A suspicious Vyrewatch will approach the player, who has a choice of attempting to escape (which can fail, resulting in being tithed), agreeing to give the tithe (which deals a moderate amount of damage), or being sent to the mines where the player must mine approximately 15 Daeyalt ore before being set free.

Combat vulnerability

Vyrewatch can only be harmed by the Ivandis flail and Blisterwood weapons. Their invulnerability against most weapons is due to their mind-reading ability, which allows them to predict the enemy's attack intentions and easily dodge swings from normal weapons. Flails, though, are very difficult weapons to handle even by the most experienced fighters, so the attack almost never goes exactly as the user intended, rendering the Vyrewatch's prediction ability ineffective. Additionally, as with the stronger variants of the Vampyre race, they can only be harmed by silver or blisterwood weapons.

During the Legacy of Seergaze quest, Kael Forshaw states that a mercenary tried killing a Vyrewatch using a Verac's flail, but it didn't work because it wasn't made of silver.

Blisterwood weapons bypass the mindreading as it constantly moves and morphs naturally. According to Vanescula the Blisterwood tree seems alive and is constantly growing, making it very unpredictable.

A Ring of recoil has no effect against the Vyrewatch, nor do any of the Zarosian Deflect Curses.

Ivandis flail special attack

When Vyrewatch are at half health, they can be frozen with the special attack of the Ivandis flail, Retainer. When frozen, Guthix balance potion can be used on them to deal around 100 life points with an approximate max of 220.

Vyrewatch do not have to be frozen to be killed, unlike Vampyre juveniles and Vampyre juvinates.

File:Vyre safespot.png

When using a Blisterwood staff or Blisterwood stake, a safespot can be used east of Burgh de Rott.

If you freeze a Vyrewatch with the Ivandis flail special attack and another Vyrewatch attacks you, you will still attack the frozen Vyrewatch, even though it is a single-combat zone. However, if the effect wears off before you kill the Vyrewatch, your attacker will be the new Vyrewatch, and you cannot attack the original one again until the new one is killed.

Slayer Task

Vyrewatch may be received as a slayer assignment. Players may alternatively kill Vyrelords, Vyreladies or Vampyre juvinates.

Drops

Trivia

• Vyrewatch were once removed from being a slayer task, but were later re-added.
• In the book Return to Canifis Vyrewatch seem to lack the prediction ability and are wounded by melee weapons, and also seem to have no way to protect themselves from magic, even though players cannot hurt them in either of those two methods. It might a also be because they were fighting many enemies at once, and were unable to avoid all of their attacks.
• Previously the damage inflicted on a vyrewatch was capped at 250 lifepoints per hit. This cap was removed in the Temple Trekking update on 17 August 2011. The same update removed the level 85 vyrewatch which could previously be encountered on the easy route of a Temple Trek/Burgh de Rott Ramble.
• When caught by a Vyrewatch, you can prevent paying a tithe or menial work by logging out.
• If you kill a Vyrewatch while it's soaring over the sea, the loot will be unobtainable.
• There are 8 different types of Vyrewatch corpses that are storable in the player's bank, taking 8 different bank spaces. However, they are all identical when it comes to burning them on a pyre.
• Currently, there is a glitch where, if you kill a vyrewatch, its corpse will not be dropped, this has yet to be fixed.
