In old-school alchemy, Sulfur represented a very important and meaningful ingredient. WhileV Risingdoesn’t dabble much in real-world alchemy, it does employ the materialSulphur Oreas refined intoSulphur. It pops up in tons of recipes from early to late game, letting players craft the best items inV Rising. Those who can maximize farming capabilities will be able to craft themselves legendary items and exert their superiority overPvPorPvEfoes.
Sulphurisn’t the rarest of resources inV Rising, occasionally found in most areas that have plain stone. But to climb the ranks and build the best, it’ll take more than an occasionalSulphurnode here and there to satisfy an ambitious vampire’s needs.
Updated on July 26, 2025, by Juliet Childers:Sulphur(andSulphur Oreby proxy) sticks out as one of the most foundational crafting materials in the entirety of V Rising. Not only is it pivotal in the mid-game, but it is one of the only two ingredients for makingGold Ingotsin the late game. Players must keep a steady supply ready at all times by doing regular farming runs, sending out servants on missions, or stealing from fellow players (friendly or not). Luckily, there are a few choice areas near great base locations that provide ampleSulphur Orefor refinement intoSulphur.
Where To Find Sulphur Ore
Unlock The Recipe & Gather Some Ore
Firstly, players must unlock the ability to craftSulphurfromSulphur Orebytaking out theV BloodbossClive the Firestarter. Thankfully,using a fast travel pointtakes players to their location in theFarbane Woods, on the western coast, called theBandit Sulphur Quarry. Players will get a ton ofSulphur Oreto use right before unlocking the ability to makeSulphur. However, this opens up much more than just explosives, including the ability to make both theAlchemy Tableand theAlchemy Lab Flooring. Pairing the appropriate flooring with certain building structures lessens the amount of resources required to craft items. In the late game, this perk really adds up inPvPandPvE.
As for other places to findSulphur OreinV Rising, players can find it just about anywhere, as ore nodes can spawn anywhere on most of the maps. But waiting for random generation is not the optimal way to farmSulphur Ore.
How To Make Sulphur
Get Familiar With The Process
As with allcrafting inV Rising, raw materials must be put into the appropriate building structure and given appropriate time to process. Default settings require 20Sulphur Oreper 1Sulphur. Do keep in mind that salvagingSulphurin theDevoureronly yields 5Sulphur Orevs. the 20Sulphur Oreit takes to make 1Sulphurmaterial.
How To Farm Sulphur
Expedite The Process
Minimizing the effort input while maximizing gains is the name of the game when it comes to resource gathering. to do this forSulphurandSulphur OreinV Rising, players need to leverage several key locations, theirMaceweapon, and theirBear Form Vampire Power. By mining ore with aMaceweapon, players will get a more abundant harvest. InBear Form, players can use theirQ abilityto smash large nodes of ore and get a bunch all at once – something they would need explosives to do otherwise.
After obtaining large amounts ofSulphur Ore, players just need to pop that into Furnaces to process it intoSulphur. If players can spare the materials and space, building multipleFurnaces(and then anAdvanced Furnace) helps make the process go by more quickly.
No Vendors sell Sulphor or Sulphur Ore inV Rising.
How To Farm Sulphur Ore With Servants
Servantsare one of the best ways to consistently harvest materials from specific locations. Every area in the game is available for servants to go to on missions, but every area has a difficulty rating, too. Higher-level areas naturally have higher difficulty ratings, but players can dominate servants withhigh blood types and puritiesand equip them with equipment to boost their power and defense numbers. The equipment includes jewelry like amulets, armor sets, and weapons, too.
Moreover, different servant types have different perks. AVillagerwill have better success rates in civilian areas while aGloomrot Railgunnerwill fare better in non-civilian areas. Utilizing servants of a type in the area of their type, such as aSilverlight Hunterin theSilverlight Hills, increases loot amount by 20%. This includes missions in theRuins of Mortium.
Send servants to the locations above to passively gain materials as time goes by.
