V Rising is a game that is all about gathering materials and crafting tons of different items. Survival in V Rising can only be ensured if you are constantly building up your castle stronger and crafting new weapons as you are leveling up. Collecting some of the materials would require reaching a certain level and unlocking the recipes. Leather in V Rising is another important material that can be found in chests as well as it can be crafted.
However, crafting Leather would require you to kill a boss in Farbane Woods. It will give you access to a Tannery recipe which will allow you to craft the Leather. This article will help you thoroughly on how to get leather in v rising and craft Leather in V Rising.
How to Get Leather in V Rising
To get leather in V Rising you need to track Keely the Frost Archer Boss using the Blood Altar. Once you reach her, take her down with your weapons. Beating the boss would give you access to the Tannery recipe. Return to your castle and build the Tannery. Now, you can easily craft Leather at Tannery as much as you want.
Crafting leather in V Rising is rather a simpler thing to do. This is a basic material that is needed most at the beginning of the game. So, it doesn’t require much of the steps to perform while you craft it.
Usually, it can be found in chests and enemy corpses but it’s not sufficient enough. So, you can craft it to have as much Leather as you need.
At Tannery, you would need 16x Animal Hide to craft 1x Leather. It is quite easy to find Animal Hide as the animals are scattered around all over the map. Hunting down the animals is another fun thing in V Rising. You can find various animals in Farbane Woods such as wolves and bears.
Beating Keely the Frost Archer to Unlock the Tannery
Looking to craft Leather? Well, the first thing you would need to do is hunt down Keely the Frost Archer Boss. It’s a level 20 boss, so it won’t be much harder to defeat him. I would suggest you equip a powerful weapon of your choice and of course, a good armor would be a plus point.
She is located in the bandit trapper camp walking around the camp.
Using the Blood Altar, you can reach her. It is better to fight her during the nighttime, as it becomes harder to fight her in the daylight. Also, you would need to make your way into the camp from the east side. This is where you will find fewer enemies while you track down the boss.
Beating her is not that hard but you would be required a decent amount of time with constant attacks. To make things easier, you can use animals locked in the cages to distract her and even give her damage. These animals will also make a fair amount of damage to her.
She has mainly two different attacks, a triple freeze arrow shot that will slow you down and she also launches arrows into the air that covers a large area. The trick is to dodge her attacks and make your move while her attacks are being refilled.
Recommended gear score is 20 for this fight, although she isn’t a strong v blood enemy.
One thing about the bandit trapper camp is that you can find various resources in chests and destructible boxes here. Copper ore, animal hide, and various other pieces of loot can be found at the trapper camp. Killing the trash mobs and wild animals around will give you plenty of blood essence and animal hide for building your base later.
It is a very lucrative bandit camp to farm.
In PvP, other players will be rushing to fight this v blood enemy. Players can often be strong vampire combatants so be wary of getting low around the bandit camp.
Building the Tannery in V Rising
So, you have finally killed the boss at Bandits Camp. Now, it’s time to head back to your castle and build up the Tannery. This is the simplest task in the whole procedure of getting the Leather and doesn’t even require much of the items.
Here are the items you would need:
- 160x Animal Hide
- 8x Planks
With the Tannery recipe being unlocked, these are two ingredients you would need. Now, gather animal hide by killing animals you see around the map and bring it to the Tannery.
Uses of Leather V Rising
Leather is much of an important material when it comes to building your foundation in the game. This will help you in getting along with the game and have the basic weapons and armor for your protection. It will also let you upgrade your Castle Heart.
Here are a few items you can with Leather as an ingredient:
- You can craft cloth at a Loom
- You can craft Crossbow at a Woodworking Bench
- You can craft armor at Simple Workbench
- With Leather you can repair your armor and tools
- It can also craft you a Copper Castle Key at Simple Workbench
There are a few more things you can craft with Leather. So, it’s a good material that you would need in a sufficient amount to make progress in the game.
There you have all the details on getting and crafting the leather in V Rising. These are all the things that you would need to know. Craft some good basic weapons and make your way to the Bandits Camp and bring down that boss. This is the only thing that requires your effort in obtaining Leather.
