Opinion This game is amazing

142 Upvotes

I'm searching for something for a new breath of air and stumble on V Rising on Steam.

I was completely hooked in the first week, and when I got to the servants function I could play more easily-my job is too busy to play so I just sent them to do the work and and I could come back to refine the materials myself-reminded me of Path of Exile Kingsmarch where you could send the shipments then return for that reward.

Hope to see more DLC on stories and environment, I'm just 60 and into Gloomrot right now as a solo player.

Question Act II Combat Woes - What am I doing wrong?

8 Upvotes

I'm really bad at the combat in this game apparently. I thought I was getting better, but no. Even on easy, I'm unable to get past the horseman battle with Sir Irwin.

So many of these bosses and enemies now have the ability to stun, to freeze. To send multiple AoE attacks out. To follow you with lightning blasts. etc. I'm just watching my health bar vanish, and no good respites in battle to recoup.

I'm not sure what counters there are for these in combat? It seems too frantic to get any chances to sip potions, and I don't seem to have anything that negates any specific attacks, or can buff against mobility-based attacks.

What am I missing?

Question Irradiant Gruel Uses

6 Upvotes

Hello,

I am new to the mutant side of this game and love the benefits of the mutant blood on my character. I currently have an imprisoned mutant bear I dominated at the Gloomrot South/North border with 77% blood purity and am wondering if anyone knew if irradiant gruel would work on it the same as human prisoners. Everywhere I look online says you cannot imprison the mutant creatures. Has anyone else encountered this situation?

Much thanks in advance!

Question Is there a v-rising mod or setting to explore the dracula's castle.

2 Upvotes

I've always wanted to take a look around and inside the dracula's castle(other than what you can see when you walk in). is there like a mod or setting to let me fly out of bounds to explore the outside of the castle or through the walls to see the interior?

Basically the title.

I've found myself in the enviable position of having two 100% Mutants in my prison. Obviously, I only need one for my bloodbank and I can't make him a servant. So... any suggestions?

πŸ‘ The Cozy Place β€” A Growing Multi-Game Community (V Rising Server launching 10/16!)

We started as a small Palworld server between friends β€” now we're a home for good people who just want to game together, drama-free.

What we've got going:

🌿 Palworld β€” Cozy Pal-ace β€” relaxed PvE, cooperative building, no wipes

🦴 Palworld β€” BonesBound β€” slightly less relaxed PvP server

πŸ›‘οΈ Valheim β€” smaller, intentional servers (DM to join, keeps things from overcrowding)

🎲 D&D β€” campaigns, character building, finding a party

πŸ§› V Rising β€” launching 10/16! β€” vampire survival, castle building, and a dedicated server supporting up to 50 players!

🎁 Giveaway Event Starting 10/1! We're giving away (3) copies of V Rising to help build up the server before launch β€” join early for your shot at winning before we go live on 10/16! Plus, get to know our community and make friends.

The vibe:

Opinion This game is extremely hard in Brutal and too easy in Normal difficulty

0 Upvotes

Started playing the game in Brutal and had a tough but rewarding grind till gear lvl 47. Killing the Bandit King took like 30+ attempts but finally made it.

Then I met Vincent ! He is literally unkillable unless you have perfect reflexes. After dying many many times, I had enough and cheesed him using Bane. I thought thats it, rest would be doable. Nope....the Christina the Sun lady is equally punishing. Died to her many times and then had enough. Reduced the difficulty to normal and killed her in one go with 50% HP remaining.

I think, this game is too easy in Normal difficulty and Extremely punishing in Brutal difficulty. I wish there is a middle path. Am I the only one?

Question Game not starting at all

1 Upvotes

When trying to run the game on steam, the game will show it's starting, but then suddendly the game just never opened and steam resumes to the play button. I managed to boot it once by restarting my PC and instantly going onto Steam and pressing play. However, after that I couldn't boot into a single game, because I always received a connection error during the starting screen of a private game (after naming the save).
After restarting the same problem occured with the game not willing to start.
I disabled everything running in the background, tried reinstalling the game, verifying the game files, trying in admin mode, compatibility mode-- nothing worked.

I tried restarting an booting up and joining a public server, this actually worked, but I don't want to constatly restart my PC and then play on a public server for my first time playing the game. I also tried switching to SteamP2P and this other setting next to IP.

Any clue, what I can try next?

Update: fixed.

Miscellaneous Need help with my mod

5 Upvotes

Looking for experienced 8-weapon PvP players to test a single-weapon balance mod.

I've been working on a V Rising PvP mod built around a simple idea:

Can a player locked to ONE weapon be brought close enough to parity with a skilled player using all 8 weapon slots to make both playstyles competitively viable?

The goal isn't to make single weapons stronger than weapon swapping. An 8-weapon player will naturally retain a major advantage in versatility, counters, mobility options, and the ability to adapt during a fight.

Instead, the mod gives single-weapon players additional stats based on their chosen weapon/classβ€”damage, cooldown reduction, movement speed, attack speed, survivability, etc.β€”to compensate for giving up that versatility.

The mod is pretty much finished other than the fine tuning of stats that testing will help me determine. All weapons are covered, and I have commands that can make casters viable, including healer and summoner playstyles, as well as things like tanks or assassin playstyles.

Ideally, if two similarly skilled players fight, 1 weapon vs. 8 weapons should still feel like a competitive matchup, with each side having different strengths. The 8-weapon player has the larger toolkit; the single-weapon player gets more power out of the much smaller toolkit they've committed to.

I'm looking specifically for players who are comfortable with high-level 8-slot weapon swapping PvP. I want you playing normally and using that versatility as effectively as possible.

I want to test different single-weapon classes, identify what's overtuned or undertuned, and see whether the concept can actually hold up against experienced PvPers.

Basically, try to break the balance. If 8-weapon swapping still completely overwhelms it, I need to know. If a single-weapon class becomes too strong, I need to know that too.

If you're experienced with 8-weapon PvP and interested in helping test, DM me or reply here.
