It is common knowledge that vampires are allergic to garlic, sunlight, and silver. At least that’s what we’ve learned in pop culture. However, in Stunlock Studios’ survival-crafting game, if you wanted to be prepared for fanged foes, you need to know how to farm silver coins in V Rising. Whether you’re building castles or crafting weapons, you have to have silver in stock. Silver coins are a form of currency accepted by merchants in V Rising.
So, how to get silver in V Rising? More importantly, what is the best way to get more silver in V Rising?
How to Farm Silver Coins in V Rising
Getting silver coins in V Rising is not too difficult even if you play the game normally. You can find them by looting human houses and buildings while exploring the map. If you’re struggling to find enough, try exploring higher-level areas. If you’re done with looting houses, might as well just make it yourself.
How to Get Silver in V Rising With a Fabricator
If you have a Fabricator in your castle, you can convert Iron Ingot and silver ore into silver coins. If you haven’t built one yet, head to the Transcendum Machine Factory in Gloomrot to find Ziva the Engineer.
Best Way to Get More Silver in V Rising
Besides crafting silver or using the Fabricator, a surefire way of farming more silver in V Rising is by defeating Lidia the Chaos Archer in Farbane Woods to unlock the Devourer, which can turn certain weapons into silver coins.
How to Use Silver Coins in V Rising
You can spend them with wandering traders and vendors at various locations like Dunley Farmer’s Market and Brighthaven Trader District. Use them to buy recipes, seeds, and other resources. But remember, you must be in human form to interact with merchants, or you’ll face consequences.
It is worth noting that carrying silver coins in V Rising comes with a risk: Silver Sickness, which causes damage over time.
How to Avoid The Dreaded Silver Sickness in V Rising?
To avoid this, craft a coin purse at your Leatherworking Station to protect yourself. Also, use your Alchemy Table to craft a Silver Resistance Brew or Potion for different levels of protection against Silver Sickness. If you haven’t unlocked the Alchemy Table, defeat Clive the Firestarter in Farbane Woods to gain access. With these precautions, you can safely farm silver coins in V Rising without succumbing to Silver Sickness.
