	No special 'recipe' is required to kill a vampire. While they have a near limitless ability to self-heal, at its core a ~~vampuire~~ is just an organic machine. It has working parts, and if enough of these are damaged, the machine will break. Explosives are probably the most straightforward technique, though vampires are much more durable to grenades that most humans.		No special 'recipe' is required to kill a vampire.

	Part of the myth of vampires as unkillable comes from the fact that they do not feel pain, nor ~~do they~~ suffer from shock. A bullet to the chest, for example, may kill a vampire if a major artery is severed, but it won't kill them any faster than it will a human, and while shock and pain might make a human fall, the vampire will keep attacking.

	The challenge lies in dealing enough damage fast enough. While a bullet to the ~~spin~~ will sever the cord, it will heal almost before the vampire has a chance to fall down.

	Death by bloodloss is ultimately the most effective improve-strategy.

This is most effective if it is a high-pressure artery where the blood can escape to fast for the vampire's self-healing abilities to close it.
