To help you understand the different types of Blood in V Rising and how each type affects vampires, we’ve prepared this guide where we’ll cover all the information and tips you need to know about Blood Quality and Blood Types in V Rising.
V Rising Blood Types
To survive in the world of V Rising, your vampire needs to drink Blood regularly. The Blood stored within your vampire’s body will be used up slowly, so you’ll need to feed on enemies to refill your blood pool.
There are enemies present all over the in-game world, so finding Blood to drink isn’t an issue, but you have to note what kind of Blood you’re drinking.
There are seven different blood types in V Rising. These types are Frail, Creature, Worker, Warrior, Brute, Rogue, and Scholar.
- Frail Blood comes from rats. It is the default blood type that you spawn with after dying.
- Creature Blood comes from wild animals such as bears and wolves.
- Worker Blood comes from harmless human NPCs such as villagers.
- Warrior Blood comes from dangerous human NPCs such as bandits and soldiers.
- Brute Blood also comes from dangerous human NPCs, but the ones that are highly aggressive.
- Rogue Blood comes from trappers, poachers, assassins, and archers.
- Scholar Blood comes from NPCs that can cast spells.
Each blood type gives unique buffs to the player, which stay with the player until they drink Blood again.
On top of that, there are 5 tiers of quality to each blood type. The number of buffs and potency of each buff scales directly with the tier of the enemy’s Blood.
The quality of an enemy’s Blood range anywhere from 1% to 100%. If you want to see the blood type and quality of an enemy, simply hover your cursor over them, and it’ll show all the information related to their Blood.
Now that you know how the blood type and quality system works in V Rising, let’s go over all of the different V Rising Blood Types.

Blood Quality Tips
To drink an enemy’s Blood, you’ll need to first get their health down to critical. Once they’re at low HP, a prompt will appear on your screen telling you to press “F.”
Pressing F will allow you to drink the enemy’s Blood. An important thing to remember is that while you’re drinking an enemy’s Blood, you are completely open to attacks from other enemies.
Therefore, you need to ensure no other threats around while feeding on an enemy.
When going out to drink Blood, you need to be mindful of what you intend to do after. If you have a plan for yourself, try to find enemies with a blood type and quality that will give you the buffs you need to fulfill your plan.
So if you’re planning is to go out exploring and farming resources, you should try to drink Worker Blood.
It’s good not to focus on finding the highest quality blood possible. Your Blood will eventually be drained, so you’ll need to feed again, resetting the buffs you got anyway. So try not to spend too much time finding Tier 4 or Tier 5 blood unless you need its respective buffs.
You should be specifically looking for Tier 4 and Tier 5 Blood Quality when looking for servants. The higher their Blood Quality, the better skills they’ll have.
Another Blood Quality mechanic to note is that you cannot stack the passive buffs from the same type and quality of Blood.
For example, if you drink 30% Creature Blood twice, it will not stack the +15% Movement Speed twice; it’ll just reset it.
And if you drink Tier 4 Creature Blood and then subsequently Tier 3 Creature Blood, you will lose the Tier 4 buffs and obtain the Tier 3 buffs instead.
Blood Moon Effects on Blood Quality
In V Rising, there’s a chance for a “Blood Moon” to come out during the nighttime. When this happens, a prompt for Blood Moon will appear in the center of your screen, and your vision will get a red-ish tint.
When the Blood Moon is active, your vampire will get a 10% increase in their Movement Speed, and all of the passive buffs they have from their blood type will be enhanced by 20%.
