Getting Greater Blood Essence in V Rising
Greater Blood Essence is a bit more difficult to obtain than the regular Blood Essence. For this, you will need to hunt down a lot of enemies of Level 20 and above. It is not obvious that every single enemy will drop it. However, it can be dropped by just a few enemies. So, you will be required to kill tons of enemies.
That was just one way of getting Greater Blood Essence. It was kind of simple, but the second method is a bit hard. In this method, you can craft the Greater Blood Essence. However, rather than killing lots of enemies, you will just need to beat a level 46 boss through which you can unlock the crafting recipe of the Greater Blood Essence.
The boss Tristan the Vampire Hunter can be found in the center of Farbane Woods. Once you successfully take him down, you will see that the recipe for crafting the Greater Blood Essence has been unlocked. Now, you can craft it at Blood Press using 4x Unsullied Hearts. Alternatively, you can use 200x Regular Blood Essence to craft 1x Greater Blood Essence.
These are the two ways of obtaining the Greater Blood Essence in V Rising.
Types of Blood Essence
In V Rising, you will see 3 different types of Blood Essence, the regular one, the Greater Blood Essence, and the Primal Blood Essence. Each one of them has different difficulty levels when it comes to obtaining them. Also, each of them has a different use in the game.
Regular Blood Essence
This is comparatively a lot easier to obtain than the other two types. You will simply need to kill enemies using a weapon or even with bare hands. There are chances that enemies will drop the Blood Essence and upon killing them it will be transferred to your inventory. However, it is not obvious that each one of them will drop it.
The Regular Blood Essence can be used as fuel for your Castle Heart.
The Greater Blood Essence
The Greater Blood Essence is obtained in two different ways. The first one is killing enemies and getting a chance that they drop the Greater Blood Essence, but these enemies should be level 20 or above. The second way is to craft it in Blood Press either by using Regular Blood Essence or Unsullied Hearts.
The Greater Blood Essence is an important material when it comes to upgrading items in the later game.
Primal Blood Essence
Primal Blood Essence can only be obtained by crafting it in Blood Press. And for this, you will need to unlock the recipe for it which can be done by killing a level 62 boss named Jade the Vampire Hunter. Once you beat him, the recipe will be unlocked and you can craft it by using 4x Exquisite Hearts or 12x Greater Blood Essence.
For now, Primal Blood Essence has only one primary use and that is creating the Legendary Blood Key.
