V Rising: A Guide To PvP

thegamer.com:

PvP in V Rising is more than a little intimidating. While you do have plenty of different PvP options to choose from, between hardcore Full Loot PvP or your standard four-player PvP servers, surviving against other vampires is even more difficult than toughing it out against the environment.

Combat against your fellow vampires is one thing, but figuring out how best to defend your castle from raids, or going a-raiding yourself, is quite another feat. Having a good time on a busy PvP server can be rough, so here are all the basics you need to succeed in V Rising PvP.

If you are planning on going on the offensive and breaking into another player's castle, you will need to do some extensive battle planning. The first thing to account for before you set out for your first raid is what type of castle you are trying to lay siege to.

All types of Castle Walls have a substantial amount of health you must chew through before you can break into another player's base, but by far the weakest wall is the wooden Palisade. It generally will take at least five Explosives to break down a Palisade wall at full health if it is not already in decay.

Typically, you will find that castles built primarily from Palisade walls belong to new players on a server, so unless you happen to have a lot of resources lying around, you might want to think twice before expending all those explosives to break inside. Chances are, a new player will not have the loot to make it worth raiding.

You will unlock the recipe for Explosives after defeating Clive the Firestarter, and can craft Explosives at an Alchemy Table — which is also unlocked by this V Blood Carrier.
