[@-__Shadow__-]

And then there is me, who fought every boss all the way up between 0-5 item levels below and having fun with it. So far all the bosses mechanics are interesting and unique. Bosses with alot of attacks/abilities use block ability. If they have block, use ground abilities to not prock it. If they attack slow, get to the side of them and wack, if they hurt being close to, use ranged weapons. Many ways to go about it ^.^

[@MrLu4o]

Great as usual ! 🎉

[@envyhunny5985]

Thanks for this fabulous video

[@RamzaBehoulve]

Indeed, most bosses do not unlock next tier of equipment, so they can be skipped completly IF you don't need/want anything else they unlock. With that said, I like unlocking everything, but it's obviously easier to do so later if you are overgeared. I'm torn whether they should make more bosses absolutely mandatory. It can be through a recipe or simply requiring X bosses to be dead within or below a tier to move to the next (but that's a bit artificial). To be fair, all this is only important on PvP servers where gear progression determines whether you are canon fodder or a worthy competitor. On PvE server, there is absolutely no need to rush anything (unless we start seeing racing servers looking at time played --> rewarding efficiency and not being sleep deprived)

[@xenz3803]

Thick leather can be purchase from merchant as well if im correct

[@frostyfredfred]

Thanks for the infos! We are 47 but we will jump on Leandra for the jewelry!

[@luke_electrik]

Can you post the optimal progression in text form here? Quick bullet points would be amazing so I can put them into a note and save them for when I do a Brutal play through 😊 Keep up the great content!

[@DemoneKim]

got you brother. 1. Clear normally up to quincy 2. Upgrade all equipment 3. kill beatrice, use bane to kill christina or kill christina to get access to the silver bag. 4. use any of the strategies available to kill bane early to get access to human form. 5. Use human form to start using your silver to buy tough leather from the merchant in dunley farmlands. 6. kill maja and leandra. 7. Upgrade all gear to 61. Then go clear all previous bosses. 8. Fight octavius 9. Upgrade again 10. Fight the 64 boss, get your dawnstar regalia 11. Work towards fighting Ciril

[@MrProbstandrew]

its interesting.. and i like that you now kinda have multiple paths to progress, and not just one stright line.. but.., these various tactics, like what u are mentioning require other things then, (like instead of said boss etc) now u need heaps of silver, to buy those items.. or u need to farm and spend lots of time in other ways.. so i dont really think its a shortcut. its more just alternatives, and then depending on many factors decides how fast your progression is. (Not the least the server settings ;) also, when u have all the bosses and their stations, and can craft anything, from low lv items, it really speeds up ur way too. cuz if u always picking up whats laying around, u will alway have heaps of mats, and rarely need to do those hard long farm runs, where rng or other players can really spend n waste ur time.. since loot in v rising everything has value, and can be crafted into a higher tier. also, stuff like buying from vendors, even if u farm all the silver n gold, is very limited, and in my exp usually good stuff is constantly being bought up , mostly by higher lv players.. and its not there or can only be got in small quanteties. but i think thats a good thing.. yes there is a way to streamline ur game n progress, depending on what ur goal is, but there isnt really a total cheese strat, to bypass playing the game and its systems. i like that. as u can see by this message, ive benn playing way too much Vrising, and not sleeping much.. haha

[@ixa3823]

thats the awesome part about this game, complexity in progression. especially in pvp after alpha wolf i like to base in dunley right off the bat, and come back to farbane afterwards

[@timtams5283]

I enjoy chasing Beatrice AGAIN and AGAIN and AGAIN XD

[@Yumekeo]

guys dont do this. Learn the game, learn the bosses, spend a few minutes on each of those bosses, and then craft the mats you need to make higher tier gear. It's much slower to resort to these alternatives like buying the mats you need. Btw dont sleep on vincent. You want those prisoner cells early.

[@DancingCra]

All of this is only applicable if you're playing in a PvE solo server. If you try this in a squad (4 player team) in a PvP server I'll just kill you while you're getting the mats to "upgrade" your gear and steamroll ahead. I even doubt you'll be able to get a single dawnthorn piece since your previous gear will be broken from all the PVP - untill you get to late game gear, recrafting is cheaper than repairing items. It is true some of the bosses aren't mandatory but you'll be vastly behind if you try to apply most of the info in this video in a PvP server.

[@DancingCra]

Also, quite a click bait title considering you're not specifying for which type of server this is applicable for - PvE or PvP.

[@DeonGaming]

Indeed, if you try to struggle with bosses without previous progression or mass-farm town for mats, you are more likely than not going to be hunted. Automation and resource farming is pretty easy as is.

[@skillforce3483]

What’s the point ? Yes you can skip some bosses ,but are you going after a worlds record or you want to enjoy the game.

[@peachyedwards]

Buy the game so you don’t have to fight bosses and you can miss out on half the fun 💕

[@Santriell]

Thick leather drops in northern cursed forest ;)

[@ForeverknightGaming]

I suggest everyone to not listen to this advice unless you have beaten the game already and started over.

[@xGaviJax]

Good luck farming the coins to do that. You need so many mats for crafting things, and buying them all cost a ton of coins. Yes they are dropping but not that much and farming them is definitely taking a long time.

[@yaremaha6388]

Wont believe its efficient until u actually compare two methods

I am stuck at 74 I must have golden ingot or power core But I must kill a 77 level bosses to unlock them Is there any other way?

[@justinkostick3170]

Doing it the way he says makes no sense I can tell you it's better to fight all v boss ad you will already have in tier 2 incursions and the v boss are good practice for Adam and Dracula fights cause you will need to learn attack pattern and movements for the fights

[@neysta2136]

You can play the game this way but why? It takes so much of the fun out of it. One thing I love about this game is that the bosses are not piss easy, they are difficult which is becoming rarer in games these days. It is satisfying to beat them. If some people enjoy playing this way then that’s great, I just personally disagree. I think it move us towards a culture of quick gratification, like how a lot of games are becoming which sucks.

[@ixa3823]

for pvp progression, it's better to stay on top of other vampires so u can quickly get a hold of a soul shard of your own quicker than everyone else

[@pyktkmrge]

It literally does not affect you so stop whining and trying to dictate how others play their game and focus on your own game yeah?

[@dond2377]

@@pyktkmrge Devils advocate, it actually can affect him in online if people play this way. Items being sold out at vendors, more pvp in areas that were low population before, his progression slowing down due to having to find and fight the bosses...

[@dond2377]

Meh, no, Souls game are highly regarded not just due to difficulty but the combat/progression/bosses seeming fair and balanced. That is definitely not the case in V rising, bosses having 5-8 CC attacks while spamming ultimates and mob summoning arent fun for most people.

[@entelin]

It's no mistake, It's highly intentional. It's very much designed as a pvp game, and as such giving many options for progression opens the game up and prevents people from locking down the progression of others too much. In pve however I think what you're talking about is generally totally irrelevant. Vrising is a great pve game, but why skip bosses, that literally is the game at that point. Obviously there's speedrunning and such, but if you're like most people and are going to do one or two playthroughs, don't deny yourself a good experience with each boss.

[@dond2377]

Meh, I like maybe half the boss fights, its very annoying with amount of CC they all have while I dont. Its very annoying that they spam ults and mine is on cooldown most of the fights. And its really annoying that they summon mobs repeatedly while mine last like 6 seconds...especially annoying when they are human mofos...so, im glad to be able to skip those fights and progress to others.

[@ZippoManABH]

I really appreciate your tips BUT I kill Beatrice, easily, kill Vincent,Tristan and Christina not so easily this time but I'm always lvl 44 and dnt move, I kill Tristan, Vincent and Beatrice again but always remain at 44 .. upgrade the castle at 3, all weapons are iron, have a servant ... dnt know why I dnt grow up. Also I play on an official pve normal server. Thx for any help 🥰

Your gear = your level. You don't actually level up

thick leather can be farmed from certain beasts, like the dogs from the guards in farmlands, or the wolves in the frozen area drop them too i think. or stuff in the cursed forest drop them and prestine

But you waste more time if you do this. Why not be good at the game and kill the bosses? Sonner or later you gonna end facing the end-bosses and not skip around this time.

this advice made me loose hrs of sleep trying to go back to recover my loot. he said silver coin on the vendor but they actually are not. do not follow this advice to buy silk

[@Playfade]

I don't see what's new in what you're saying. Basically, you can skip bosses that don't advance your gear progression. WHAT A SECRET !

[@DemoneKim]

No, I'm saying you can focus on advancing the recipes first, which allows you to jump to gear score 61 or higher with only fighing 3 bosses, instead of 20.

[@sigefry]

No you cannot, on a fresh server you cannot deploy this strat not even dreaming ​@DemoneKim

[@1Mackinzoid]

This guide is for pvp people or people that have played a few times already. For first time players this will ruin most of the fun in the game. As a solo, the most fun fights are the ones where it takes 2-3 attempts, i get better, learn the mechanics, maybe tweak my build slightly and then im proud and hyped when i finally beat it and get instant rewards. Go in to bosses blind, with or without friends, its great! All of this is are nullified by this guide because you will be way overleveled so instead of being fun, its a chore. Not to mention the drops will be useless to you instead of maybe getting a recipe you needed. I think this would have been worth mentioning in video but im sure many people would realise this on thier own anyway.

[@republicon9382]

You can indeed get through the game this way but whats really the point? If you play the game on brutal it's all about the challenge and progressing the bosses on their respective level. Any boss that you exploited, abused mechanics, overeveled or never really participated in(in multiplayer) won't bring u any satisfaction and is invalid. If you need to abuse the system like this to get any boss down you're just not fit to the difficulty level and should just lower it. It's good to show that the system has some flaws to fix but that's the video to the devs, not the players. Anyone falling for doing this as the player will just ruin their fun. The game is a masterpiece and u will get the most from it by respecting the way the devs intended you to progress through it. Love your videos bro, cheers!

[@dwarfed7695]

I agree for pve players but soemthing like this could be useful for pvp players trying to minimize risk to gear.

So, here is the thing that nobody tells you: on brutality this game gets downright retarded. Maja, Bane, it turns into madness, you wont get beyond gear lvl 47 unless you perfect your strategy to kill bane and maja, you are stuck, lvl locked on lvl 47 iron gear, with shitty beginner gear armour. This game is not made for casual gamers, and even experienced hack & slay will face a huge wall. This game is also not made to be played solo, and with most toxic communities & corona damaged individuals these days you will get stuck, it wont be fun, its just another trash game, period. So dont play solo, dont play brutality if you arent forced by friends, and fuck those friends if they dont help you. "Get gud!" is the pathetic response of people who have know empathy for nobody.
