V Rising<\/a> allows players to create unique builds based on their playstyle, combat needs, and weapon choice. With a great variety of weapons to choose from, whichever you choose to wield reflects the Blood Type<\/a>, Abilities, and Ultimate that best suits the build.<\/p>\n

The Sword is a powerful weapon as it hones in on slicing up enemies and has excellent mobility and flexibility between weapon and Blood abilities. This guide will detail the best sword build in V Rising, including weapon and Travel abilities, Blood Type, Abilities, and Ultimate you need to equip.<\/p>\n

V Rising Sword Build – The Best Sword Weapon<\/h2>\n

A sword is the first weapon type all players can obtain fairly early in the game, as it’s the most versatile weapon to own. The Sword boasts a great balance between speed, power, and durability, allowing it to deal slashing physical damage to enemies. In addition, you can give the Sword AoE damage through its weapon skills, which makes it the preferred weapon for PvP.<\/p>\n

Specifically, to have the best Sword build, the Merciless Iron Sword is a weapon you can utilize for most of the game’s duration. It can be acquired early as the blueprint is an RNG drop from enemies and enemy mobs in the Dunley Farmlands.<\/p>\n

The RNG drop can be tricky with the latter as you’re not immediately guaranteed to gain a Merciless Iron blueprint. Additionally, you’ll only gain one blueprint per completed research, which does need large quantities of Paper<\/a>. Otherwise, you can obtain it through research at your Castle.<\/p>\n

V Rising Sword Build – Weapon and Travel Abilities<\/h2>\n

The Sword weapon type is ranked relatively high on the Weapons Tier List<\/a> mainly due to its versatility and high durability, which can be used for most PvP team set-ups. Its primary weapon attack performs a three-hit melee slashing attack which deals 35% \/ 35% \/ 40% physical damage to enemies.<\/p>\n

The Sword has two secondary weapon attacks. The first attack is Whirlwind<\/strong>, a swirling slashing attack, dealing 35% damage every 0.25 seconds for 1.1 seconds, with a cooldown of eight seconds. The second attack is Shockwave<\/strong>, a projectile AoE attack that launches enemies upwards. Once recast, it teleports directly to the enemies and performs a three-strike slashing attack, each dealing 25% physical damage.<\/p>\n

The Sword’s weapon attacks make it the best weapon to equip for PvE and PvP as the Whirlwind is a crowd control-centric skill dealing AoE damage. The Shockwave attack can be used when enemies and bosses try to evade attacks, heal or disorientate them, which pulls you in once recast.<\/p>\n
