Server Game Modes
There are different types of official servers, in addition to the possibility of creating our own servers and games with rules adapted to the way we like the most.
The official server modes are:
- PvE: Purely PvE servers, no PvP or castle siege between players. Recommended for 1-4 players.
- PvP: Servers with PvP between players. When you die you will lose what we have in the inventory but not the equipment or the tools. Recommended for 3-4 players.
- PvP+: PvP full loot servers. When you die you will lose everything that our character has. Recommended for 4 players.
- PvP Duo: Similar to PvP servers but only allow 2 people per clan (group). Recommended for 1-2 players
Bosses - V Blood
You can press O to check all Bosses in the game. To be able to see what skills, recipes or things that this bosses can unlock you have to be close to the level of the boss.
To be able to find this Bosses you have to build a Blood Altar in your castle. This will allow you to track them and be able to find them in the world. A line of blood will show up every 5 seconds around your character showing you in which direction you have to go.
Blood Types
There are 6 different types of blood you can get ingame, each on with their own buffs.
To change your blood you have to drink blood from an enemie, to do this you first have to lower their HP until you can press F.
You will get a Type and a % of quality. Higher quality grants you more buffs in that blood type.
You can click on each image to make it bigger.
How To Build A Castle
First you have to choose a good location for your castle. Is highly recommended to build it on a mountain and not in a plain field.
1. Place the Castle Hearth. Keep in mind that this is the core of your castle so build it somewhere where you can protect it easier.
2. Fill it with Blood Essence. You can get this from most of humanoid enemies.
3. Place borders. They have to be connected to the Castle Hearth and you have a limit of them. To increate the border limit you need to upgrade the Castle Hearth.
4. Place walls, furnitures and all the stuff you need.
How To Get Servants And Servant Types
Before be able to get servants you will need to be in Dominating Presence this will allows you to use Kiss of the Vampire a skill who seduce humans to make them follow you.
You will unlock this skill following the quest line, just right after you build the first Servant Coffin and interact with it.
1. Find a human, you can look for them in human towns, farms roads, military camps or other places.
2. Check is blood type %, the higher the better.
3. Cast Kiss of the Vampire. This will be draining HP from the target and when the HP is below 30% the human will be seduced and will follow you. (You can lower the HP first attacking the target and then use the Kiss).
4. Bring the seduced human to your castle.
5. Put the human in a Servant Coffin
6. Wait until the human is transformed into a servant.
7. Raise your servant.
When you are looking for a servant is important to keep in mind the blood type, blood quality and the region of the map you are getting it.
Blood type: Reduce difficulty in 100 points in a specific zone type.
Blood quality: Determine how many expertise the servant will gate. Expertise determine the power of the equipment.
Faction: Will grant a 20% buff on a specific region of the map.
Blood type -> Servant type:
Blood type Servant type Brute Rogue Warrior Worker Scholar
To make your servants work you will need to build a Castle Throne to be able to give them orders.
Sitting on the Throne will show up a map where you can see zones where you can send your servant to gather resources for you.
Keep in mind you have to equip your servants to make them have a good gear score before send them to expeditions. Your servants can fail the expedition and die, but you can resurrect them with blood in their respective Servant Coffin.
