Awakening from centuries of sleep, V Rising players must collect many materials to develop their castle and survive in a dangerous world. One of these materials is Sawdust, one of the simplest resources that can be created shortly after the start of gameplay. You will need some Wood and a specific Refinement building to get Sawdust in V Rising, and we are here to talk about this mechanic's nuances.

Although, at first, it appears that Sawdust's usefulness is limited, this is not the case. This material is one of the essential resources for your progress, from which a whole branch of helpful crafts will grow. So, you'll want to get as much of this material as possible.

Where To Get Sawdust in V Rising

Sawmill in V Rising

The only way to get Sawdust in V Rising is to use Wood at a Sawmill. Place 20 Wood in the left slot of the Sawmill and wait 20 seconds, after which you will receive one Plank and one Sawdust.

If you've just started your journey, the good news is that the Sawmill is one of the basic buildings that is available to you after a couple of introductory quests. You should also make sure that you place Blood Essence to the Castle Heart to power the Sawmill and ensure smooth bench operation.

Getting Wood in V Rising shouldn't be a big problem. You can get this resource anywhere by cutting down trees with an ax or sword and getting up to 100 units of Wood from each tree. So, save up a lot, put it all in the Sawmill, and leave the machine running while you are doing other things.

How to Use Sawdust in V Rising

V Rising paper

The only use for Sawdust is to create Paper on a Paper Press. To accomplish this, you must place four Plant Fibers and four Sawdust in the left slots, after which you will receive one Paper. However, obtaining the Paper Press is a little more difficult than the Sawmill. After all, to get the recipe for it, you must go to Forgotten Cemetery in central Farbane Woods and defeat Nicholaus the Fallen, a level 35 boss. By completing this requirement, you will receive a recipe and can create a Paper Press by spending 12 Plank and 12 Copper Ingot.

As soon as you have Paper in your hands, you will have the opportunity to create Scrolls, which, in turn, are used to craft some other even more complex crafts. This way, you will notice that everything in the game is interconnected, and by getting a supply of Sawdust, you'll discover dozens of helpful recipes in the future.
