V Rising is one of those MMORPGs that gives players numerous reasons to keep returning for more. Even though V Rising was released a year ago, it remains popular to this day, largely due to its complex yet satisfying game mechanics, like crafting.

Apart from crafting, players also have the option to customize their castles. Players can play out their vampire fantasies, including creating an elaborate castle with a Prison and an Alchemy Lab. However, many players do not know how to make an Alchemy Lab. Fortunately, this guide will give step-by-step instructions for creating an Alchemy Lab and other helpful tidbits.

How to Create an Alchemy Lab in V Rising

Inside a vampire's castle in V Rising.

Players can only create an Alchemy Lab once they have met the following requirements:

  • Research Desk

Players must get 80 Stone, 120 Animal Hide, and 8 Planks to craft a Research Desk.

  • Alchemy Lab Flooring Recipe

Players can find the Alchemy Lab Flooring recipe by exploring villages, looting chests, and killing enemies and bosses. If this is too much of a grind, players can collect 50 Paper instead.

Collecting 50 Paper is no easy task, requiring players to smash barrels, loot bandit camps, and kill enemies. The good news is this grind is optional as players can craft a Printing Press for Paper, which can then be used to get the Alchemy Lab Flooring recipe. Players can get Paper for 12 Sawdust and 4 Plant Fiber.

After collecting 50 Paper, players can craft an Alchemy Lab recipe via the Research Desk after selecting the Discover tab. Players must defeat Nicholaus, the Fallen, to get blueprints for the Study Hall. After creating a Study Hall, players must use the Research table with 50 Paper for a random recipe. After enough tries, the player could get the Alchemy Lab Flooring recipe.

Once the requirements are met, players can allot a dedicated room in their castle to the Alchemy Lab. But their job does not stop there, as players need an Alchemy Table. Players must defeat Clive, the Firestarter, to unlock the Alchemy Table by tracking him down using the Blood Altar. Upon defeating Clive, the Firestarter, the player will be rewarded with the Alchemy Table recipe.

Players can now make an Alchemy Table for their Alchemy Lab by gathering the following resources:

  • 100 Blood Essence
  • 16 Planks
  • 12 Sulphur.

Alchemy Lab Flooring Bonuses

After creating an Alchemy Lab, players will get several bonuses for relevant items. The bonuses include an increase in production speed and a reduction in the cost of resources.

V Rising is available on PC.
