How to Find Vampire Merchants in V Rising

Vendor Locations:

Ruins of Mortium: These elusive merchants can be found within the specific confines of the Ruins of Mortium biome.

Merchant Tiers and Inventory:

Southern Merchant (Low-Tier): Situated in the southern region of the Ruins of Mortium, this vendor caters to nascent vampires. Their primary wares consist of Rare Ancestral Weapons, valuable components used in crafting potent Rare weapons at the Ancestral Forge.

Northern Merchant (High-Tier): Seasoned vampires seeking to elevate their arsenal should venture to the northern sector of the Ruins of Mortium. This high-tier merchant offers the highly sought-after Epic Ancestral Weapons, ideal for crafting formidable Epic weapons at the Ancestral Forge.

Engaging in Trade with the Vampiric Purveyors:

A Departure from Traditional Currency:  Unlike their human counterparts, Vampire Merchants have no interest in conventional copper, silver, or gold coins.

New Currencies Emerge:  To initiate trade, players must procure Stygian Shards and Greater Stygian Shards.

Southern Merchant: This vendor accepts Stygian Shards as payment.

Northern Merchant: Prepare Greater Stygian Shards to trade with this high-tier merchant.

Human Form Not Essential:  A refreshing departure from interactions with human merchants, players can freely trade with these vampires while maintaining their true vampire form.

Evaluating the Trade Proposition:

Prioritizing Epic Goods: Given the focus on weaponry offered by both merchants, it's generally recommended to prioritize the high-tier northern merchant to acquire the coveted Epic Ancestral Weapons.

Early-Game Advantage (Optional): For players who have amassed a significant quantity of Stygian Shards, the southern merchant presents a potential strategic advantage by offering Rare weapons earlier in the game.

Costs Associated with Vampiric Commerce:

Southern Merchant's Price: Each Rare Ancestral Weapon from the southern vendor comes at a cost of 750 Stygian Shards.

Northern Merchant's Price: Be prepared to spend 1,500 Greater Stygian Shards for each Epic Ancestral Weapon offered by the northern merchant.
