After a V Rising guide to help you through your first few days outside of the coffin? Blending the base building of Valheim with the PvP raiding and persistent multiplayer of Rust, V Rising is, understandably, proving very popular with fans of survival games. However, that mix of gameplay styles means new players may struggle with the slew of systems and mechanics. On top of all that, you've got to pay attention to all the threats that face a fledgling vampire, like garlic and the dreaded sun.
After creating your vampire lord, emerging from the crypt, and battling through a cemetery, you find yourself in the relative tranquillity of V Rising's starting region, Farbane Woods. But what to do next? While developer Stunlock Studios provides a thorough introduction to the vampire game's systems in the form of a main questline, it can't beat a definitive V Rising guide as there's still a lot left unexplained, making your first steps pretty daunting.
So, join us as we help you over V Rising's early hurdles, answer some frequently asked questions, and set you on the path to vampiric victory.
