What is a Prison Room in V Rising
In V Rising you can build various types of rooms for specific structures. These rooms will give you bonuses for those structures. These bonuses include things like reduced time to refine and reduced resources needed to refine. A Prison Room in V Rising is a little bit different from the other rooms. You will only receive the Matching floor bonus for your prison.
If you’re looking for a guide that shows you how to capture and use a prisoner you can check our V Rising Prisoner Guide.
You can also imprison humans within your prison room to feed on them when your blood pool gets low, or to get a specific blood buff. To get started you will need to unlock the Prison Cell and Prison Flooring in V Rising.
How to Unlock Prison Flooring and Prison Cells in V Rising
To create your prison room you will need to unlock prison cells and prison flooring. To unlock prison cells you will need to defeat a level 40 V Boss, Vincent the Frostbringer. You can then place down a prison cell. It will cost you 12 iron ingots to place.
To unlock the Prison Flooring in V Rising you will need an Athenaeum. You will need to defeat a level 60 V Boss, Raziel the Shepherd to unlock the Athenaeum structure recipe. Once unlocked you can place it in your Library Room. It will cost you 40 scrolls, 12 scourgestone, and 8 reinforced planks.
In order to research the Prison Flooring recipe you need to either find the specific prison flooring schematic book or farm schematics to research a random recipe for a chance to get it. You’ll need to do this by searching areas in Silverlight Hills that have schematic drops. You can find those locations by hovering over areas within the zone. It takes 100 schematics to unlock a random recipe. It may take several random tries with paper to unlock it.
You will also be able to obtain a paper press that will allow you to craft schematics. So, if you haven’t gotten the recipe by farming schematics you will be able to craft schematics versus farming them. However, crafting schematics is very resource expensive. It costs 18 silver ore, 3 spectral dust, and 6 scrolls to craft 1 schematic. You can learn how to unlock the paper press by checking our paper guide. You can also send your servants out on hunts to obtain schematics for you.
How to Build Your Prison Room
Once you have unlocked prison flooring you’ll then want to enclose a room in your castle. Then, place down the flooring. The prison floor can be placed down by pressing the default build key of “B”. Navigate to Castle, Floors, prison floor. Each tile will cost you 4 blood essence, 4 stone bricks, and 2 iron ingots. Doing this will provide you with a prison room bonus. You will receive a “Matching Floor Bonus.”
The Matching Floor bonus will reduce the damage your prisoner takes from blood extraction by 25%. This is important because it will take less upkeep to keep your prisoner at 100% health. This will allow for a much easier time maintaining your prisoner and keeping them alive.
All Structures that can be Used in a Prison Room
There is only one structure that will give you bonuses when placed down in a prison room, the Prison Cell.
| Icon | Structure | Description |
|---|---|---|
 | Prison Cell | Bring a charmed human to the Prison Cell to imprison them. Can be used for keeping high percentage blood types in your base. You can have multiple prison cells with different blood types in each cell. This allows you to choose which blood type you want to utilize. |
