Materials are required in V Rising to create new gear and to upgrade your castle. Copper is a hugely important resource in the early stages of the game, as it is required to create copper ingots to make higher-quality weapons and castle walls. Here is the best place to farm copper ore.

Bandit Copper Mine

The best location to farm copper at the beginning of the game is the Bandit Copper Mine. To gather Copper, you will need a reinforced mace. This location is a mine in the middle of Farbane Woods that holds a large number of copper deposits that respawn regularly. You will also find several chests surrounding the mine and a V Blood boss at the bottom of the mine. Once you are equipped with reinforced gear, this is the best location to regularly farm chests and copper. 

How to make Copper Ingots

To create copper weapons you will first need to turn the copper ore into ingots. This is done by building a furnace at your castle. The furnace requires 480 Stone and 60 Copper Ore to build. Place your copper ore in the input section, and copper ingots will begin being smelted. A single copper ingot requires 20 copper ore to create.
