Description
Vampiric feast affects undead allies and summons
Steps to reproduce
Have a vampire PC or summon in your party
Expected result
Vampire PCs and NPCs are immune to bleeding damage
Actual result
Vampire PCs and NPCs take a lot of bleeding damage
Screenshot(s)
Misc Notes
Even Assassins cannot deal bleeding damage to vampires, so this is inconsistent. I expect it is meant to do Entropy.
Which Server(s)?
Underdark
Gaming Platform(s)?
PC

Hello, it behaves as expected, and prevents accidental outings of Vampire PCs.
Vampires receive bleeding damage as they are creatures with blood, and the epic spell is powerful enough to inflict it.

I'm curious, if this is the case (vampires being creatures with blood) , why doesn't the Invisible Blade on hit bleed work against them?

I believed that you've already got your answer because Amnesy had already wrote it as you've quoted.
'Epic spell is powerful enough to inflict it'
Invisible blade's bleed no matter how, is incomparable to epic spell that is almost touching the ceiling of the power from gods.

Think of Vampiric Feast as ripping the blood they have consumed, rather than blood in their veins. Meanwhile, Invisible Blade is trying to perforate veins and arteries, which are normally empty in a Vampire. This is also why a Hemomancer's Red Harvest works on a Vampire.

Red Harvest and Vampiric Feast are very much alike
