Vampire’s Caress is the Exotic intrinsic perk of Karnstein Armlets. Melee and finisher final blows instantly grant Cure and Restoration for a short duration. Bungie’s November 22, 2023 preview specified Cure x3 and Restoration x1 for melee kills, and Cure x3 and Restoration x2 for finishers, each for 8 seconds; Update 7.3.0 shipped those changes on November 28, 2023.
