A Vermin Nest in V Rising

This boss, unlike others, doesn't exist on the map. To summon Nibbles the Putrid Rat in V Rising, you must rely on a specific structure - Vermin Nest. This structure is your key to unlocking the Rat Form ability.

And it really is as simple as it sounds. All players need to do is open the build menu and go to the Refinement tab. There, you will find a Vermin Nest, which requires Stone and Bones to build. After this, you will have to collect several ingredients before you can summon Nibbles the Putrid Rat in V Rising:

  • Unsullied Heart - This can be easily obtained from human enemies or bosses.
  • Grave Dust - This can be obtained as a drop from ghouls, undead enemies, or bone grinding.

Depending on the difficulty level gamers are playing on in V Rising, the number of required resources will differ. So it may take you some time to collect them. Once the necessary amount has been acquired, put all the resources in the Vermin Nest and select "Nibbles the Putrid Rat."

It is important to note that you should not put in more items than what is required. If you do, you will have to face several giant rats.
