How to get Coarse Thread in V Rising

Hope you like random drops!

Coarse Thread in V Rising is a valuable material to own as it's part of several important crafting recipes. It's not as commonly used as other materials, nor is it found in abundance, but it's worth collecting when you come across it. Some of its uses include making a fishing pole and crafting better armor, which is important if you want to survive your time building a vampire empire.

However, just because it's valuable doesn't mean it's easy to find. This material only appears randomly in certain treasure chests and there's no guarantee that you will find it each time you open one of these chests either. That's why we've put together this guide to show you exactly how to get Coarse Thread in V Rising and how to use it.

Where do you find Coarse Thread in V Rising?

So far, Coarse Thread only appears in treasure chests in these locations:

  • Bandit Camps
  • Trapper Camps
  • Logging Camps

There’s no guarantee that any chests you open will have Coarse Thread, but given the number of camps scattered around just Farbane Wood, you’ll probably find at least some after a few raids. Whether it’s enough for what you need depends, since the amount seems to be random. Simply put, you could be farming Coarse Thread for a while.

Is there a Coarse Thread recipe?

Not yet, and likely not in future. You can craft cotton, leather, and bricks, but thread is apparently beyond the pale for vampiric warlords. Your only resource for getting more Coarse Thread is raiding more camps. On the armor front, you’ll gradually move past needing too much Coarse Thread as you start raising your Item Score and defeating stronger bosses, so you won’t be too dependent on the item for long.

Make sure to keep the items you loot alongside Coarse Thread. You may need them to craft better armor for your servants at lower levels, which gives them a higher chance of surviving missions and keeping your castle safe from PvP attacks.

What is Coarse Thread used for?

Coarse Thread is one of many important material that is used for crafting yourself some shiny new armour. It can be used as a part of crafting the following items:

  • Nighstalker Armor Set
  • Merciless Nightstalker Armor Set
  • Fishing Pole
  • Wool Thread

You're just gonna have to be prepared to go hunting for it!
