Servants play an important role in the mid-game of V Rising, they can defend your castle from raiders or be sent out on hunts to collect resources for you. How you get a servant to do your bidding can be overwhelming; here is everything you need to get your servant army.
How to make Servant Coffin
You will first be tasked with creating a Servant Coffin. These can be found in your build menu under Production, Dominance, Servant Coffin. Constructing a Servant Coffin will cost 16 Planks, 8 Copper Ingots, and one Greater Blood Essence. Greater Blood Essence is obtained by refining four Unsullied Hearts to one Greater Blood Essence at a Blood Press.
How to use Dominating Presence
Now that you have a Servant Coffin, you will need to use Dominating Presence to get a Servant. Dominating Presence is a Vampire Power that will appear on your Left Ctrl Action wheel once unlocked. When you activate Dominating Presence, your 'R' ability will change to Kiss of the Vampire. You will then need to lower a human enemy to below 30% Health and hit them with Kiss of the Vampire. This will charm the human. Bring them back to base and interact with the Servant Coffin, and Select Convert.
The higher the level and blood quality of the human, the better the servant will be once converted. You have a limited amount of servants so choose wisely.
How to use Servants
After the required conversion time has passed, your servant will spawn at your base. You can interact with them to equip them with armor and weapons. Once you've built a Castle Throne, you will also be able to send them out on hunts to gather resources for you. Hunts take time a long time to complete but can yield useful resources. If you're playing on a PvP server, be sure to leave some servants at your Castle to protect it.
