How to make Crimson Templar Chestguard in V Rising

How to get Crimson Templar Chestguard

The Crimson Templar Chestguard is an upgraded Hollowfang Chestguard. Learn its blueprint from a Dunley or Gloomrot V Blood drop, a Study research roll, or a book merchant, then upgrade at the Tailoring Bench.

Drops

• Bane, Octavian (Dunley Farmlands); Angram (Gloomrot South): Its blueprint is a Tier 2 blueprint. Bane the Shadowblade, Octavian the Militia Captain and Angram the Purifier can drop one, and the wiki gives a 25% chance that the blueprint is from this set. ^[1][4]

Vendors

• Rural Book Merchant: The Rural Book Merchant sells blueprints from this set for 48 Silver Coins. ^[1]

Crafting

• Tailoring Bench: Upgrade a Hollowfang Chestguard at the Tailoring Bench. Quincey the Bandit King unlocks the Hollowfang recipe. ^[1][2]

Other ways

• Study: You can also research blueprints at the Study with paper or scrolls, but the recipe you get is random. ^[5][1]

Tips

• It is a mid-game set (gear level 6 on the wiki), so do not spend too long farming it once you can make higher-tier armor. (unverified) ^[1]
