a small correction about the horses they only last a couple of hours before they die you can feed them water to make the timer longer so if you continue to feed them they will last forever a fully "watered" horse last 110 hours you just go in to your inventory when your close or on the horse to see its inventory there you can put the water to feed the horse it has 3 slots so 15 water you can see its stats as well and the timer of when the horse will die
Two really important starting things that the video didn't cover; Mist Braziers and moving built items instead of dismantling them. 1) Mist Braziers. Until you can properly build stone castle walls they are absolutely essential to making your base functional during the daytime. They burn bones to create an area of shade around them, and at only 1 bone/minute they can burn for a long time while you're playing given how easy bone is to obtain. Just shut them off when you log out so as not to waste the bone. 2) While you have to dismantle walls after they are built if you want to move them, just about everything else you can place in your base can be moved so you don't have to lose resources or empty them for dismantling. To move something in build mode, just click on it while in build mode to select it then move it to where you want it instead. Any contents in them will stay with them, too.
I recently learned that: 1. while in bear form you can destroy anything that requires explosives however there is a low chance of getting their resources. 2. While in Bear form you take no damage while caring silver. 3. The same trick used in the video to create the wooden coffin also applies well with your own vampire waygate. so if you want one inside your castle just section it off.
A couple more tips from a me and a friend -1 you'll need at least "merciless copper" tier weapon to mine Iron, any weapon type can break resource nodes as long as it has the correct attack rating -2 build more than 1 item processing station but you are safe with just one crafting station (have 3 grinders, sawmills, smelters etc). those waiting times are brutal -3 don't underestimate your ability to regen health and respect you blood pool (carry a couple of rats for emergencies, you can teleport with them) -4 you can teleport your horse =) -5 the most rare and valuable resource in the game is the blood type, make the most of it
Bones & Fibre and Rats make Vermin Potion. Install a vermin nest (Which you will eventually need for the boss) in your base, and it will attract rats, just pick them up and make vermin potions non-stop. They are very very very important, especially in PVP servers
For a super early boost to resource gathering - you can break up all the destructible items (the urns) in the very beginning crypt area and gather some lumber, stone (mostly this) and bone and if you are lucky you can have enough bone to make the sword before you even get out to the initial graveyard area. Also, this graveyard area is a good place to do some bone farming (and other resources) because once you get out into the wider world and start establishing your base, bone is really useful but is also more rare outside of graveyards. So, take a bit of time rather than bolting through this area to get some good early resources in a fairly safe environment.
Bears don't attack you when you're a wolf. That includes the bear boss. Horses ARE permanant, but... You have to water them. When on them, hit tab, and that will open up their inventory. You will place waterskins in their inventory, and so long as they have water, they will not despawn.
They should make an option where the camera turns with you at all times making mounts easier and even normal movement easier so you don’t have to hold right click
Couple of my friend started playing last night after we checked out your first impressions video. Thanks for bringing awareness of the game, it seems pretty cool so far.
My tip is to consume the “trippy shroom” I won’t spoil what happens I’m not sure the spawn locations but I found it in the cave where the Ferocious Bear boss is located, on the southeast side of the map
The best base locations are close to cave passages, but just the southern ones. Cave passages are one way, north to south. Benefit, you can carry all items with you unlike waygates.
For horse riding, if you hit your auto walk and then use your camera change (hold right mouse button if you didnt change it) to steer. makes riding smoother to me at least
To fast mine recources pull low lvl v type bosses to the rescources like trees, copper, iron, stone or what else and let them hit the notes for you. You can also harvest the v blood to create a huge explosion to fast mine the whole area. E.g. a whole forrest with the alpha wolf at the beginning
I genuinely thought bosses only spawned during the day. I thought that's what made them bosses. they can take out trees and rocks and expose you to the sun. I've literally watched the alpha wolf spawn as the sun rose.
There's a time limit on your dropped loot. So, say you have your base castle heart, but the V boss is far away and not near a waygate, or you have to wade through 20 supporters to get to them. So, you decide to use that second heart to make a small castle on your single player PVE closer to your target. But, of course, you've become a hoarder, like always, and you think, "Hey! I can load up, run to my new location, and die by sunlight to drop the resources! They stack great!" Nope. You will come back to discover you no longer have your piles of loot and have to start over from scratch gathering stuff. This can be a real challenge when you start moving towards the Farmlands.
Have multiple smelters for ores. Iron takes a long time and if you need heaps of it, one smelter feels like an eternity. 4 smelters going at once saves so much time. Same for pretty much any refining stations you use a lot.
The castle heart build percentage tip is best for PvE, since on PvP you need to take choke points and other factors into consideration. Good video overall.
Horses. Auto-run allows you to steer with the right mouse button. Mouse 4 (browser forward) button turns on auto-run. I changed mine to Mouse 5 (Browser back). So handy.
@@Firespark81 #1: "Secret." These things aren't secrets. #2: "noone is telling you." Still misleading, because the implication(especially combined with 'secret') is that the knowledge is hidden, tough to obtain, and that the people who possess the knowledge are purposely keeping the knowledge to themselves because it gives them an advantage. When realistically, they aren't telling you these things because they are so basic 99.9% of people who have the IQ to get through the character creation process figured them out long ago. So yeah, your title is pretty misleading. How about: "Super-Basic Tips For Your First 15 Minutes Playing V Rising"?
Clicks a video about 'secret' things 'nobody is telling you' and gets mad because these things are not secret at all. Nobody is telling you because they are obvious. You are obviously in the wrong here.
Have you figured out what determines the blood quality, because feel like it isn't lvl entirely alone so still trying to work out how that works to get the bonuses.
It's a random number generator. At first, it looks what region you are in and with that deciding the average blood level. For example, the forest have average of under 20 while the farmlands have 20-40 however there is also a random chance an enemy with over 60% or even over 80% will spawn everywhere.
so you didnt pay attention to npc blood ... most give you different abilities ... like the wolf is fast travel and sun resist the bear also has damage resist a brute has life leech etc ... so draining the right npc BEFORE a boss fight helps as well ... even a lower brute than a high V blood can be better for you
Secret Tips No One Is Telling you: "Shadows block sunlight" ... really bro, that is what you start the video with? Well you got one thing right at least, no one is telling you shadows block sunlight because its common sense.
What happened to gaming?? Advertising sponsors is what happened. Just look around Twitch RU-vid a bunch of people trying to make money off of gaming. I still see idiots referring to this stuff as EARLY access geesh are people still living under a rock?You sell your game it is no longer EA and this is a pile of junk not worth more than 5-10 nucks depending who you ask personally i wouldn't play it for free.
just watched 12 hours of stream ... 22 buck cdn game ... Id play ... it is wow diablo and elden ring wrapped into 1 and done right ... yes sometimes critters glitch out ... but this game has better mechanics than all the similar game types out there and is better done in early access with bugs than full release games ... and as early access you are debug testing for them ... and on that part yes the game should be cheaper .. after all it is NOT a full release game it is BUGGY and we are paying to do their job for them ...
