The Roof is the portion of a Vampire Castle in large campsite in V Rising without an overhead ceiling. However, having a Roof over one's head can increase the morale of one's clan or even a solo player, giving the hub compound a home-like feel to its atmosphere.

Oddly enough, there is no way to "build" a Roof in V Rising. Instead, the sheltering canopy generates on its own, without any need for placement or resource consumption. Still, specific conditions will need to be met before a Roof automatically appears over one's Castle. To get started, Vampire players must reach the 14th Journal Quest of the main campaign, "Building a Castle."

After constructing a Research Desk and upgrading the Castle Heart, Vampires of V Rising will receive the quest, "Building a Castle," during which they are tasked with making their base a more "fitting place to rest, to recover, to rule."

How To Get A Roof In V Rising

Generating A Roof In V Rising

According to the quest objective's description in V Rising, players can generate a Roof by creating a "Confined Castle Room." To perform this task, Vampires must first surround the enclosure they wish to shelter with Reinforced Walls, "Castle Wall" Structures constructed using Stone Brick ×10 and Plank ×6 each. Stone Bricks are made at a Grinder, and Planks are refined Lumber placed into a Sawmill. The enclosure can be a single room or the entire Castle, depending on how many resources the player has available. Next, open the Castle tab in the Build Menu and choose Floors. Finally, place down the desired Flooring within the designated chamber.

The final step is using a Reinforced Entrance to create a doorway into the confined space made in the Castle. Once this Structure has been connected to Reinforced Walls and Flooring, the area will generate a Roof and form a ceiling over the chamber. Accordingly, sunshine in V Rising will now have no effect on anyone standing within this enclosed place. To recap, here are the steps needed to generate or "build" a Roof in V Rising:

  • Step 1: Place Reinforced Walls on each side of the desired enclosure.
  • Step 2: Lay down Flooring within the confined chamber.
  • Step 3: Construct a Reinforced Entrance to generate a Roof.
