Obtaining Highland Lotus inV Rising is not an easy task; the resource is so difficult to find around Silverlight Hills Region. This is one of the possible locations to get Highland Lotus like all other potential locations to get Highland Lotus are guarded by Harpies. As these are high-level Harpies, so they can deal with magic-based attacks and powerful Melee in some cases. 

Buying With Silver Coins

If you are one of those players who are looking for ways to avoid combat attacks, then buying Highland Lotus with Silver Coins is the best option for you. You should start stacking up the Silver Coins, as Highland Lotus can be bought for a Hefty penny. 

Roaming The Streets

One way to find Highland Lotus is to roam around the streets of the Silverlight Hills Region. It is not a reliable way, as there is only a chance to find the desired resource. You might come across resources you do not need right now. 

It would be best if you destroyed every crate or barrel that you find in your way, and you will find various resources doing this. Moreover, you can stack up a variety of resources during the process, including Highland Lotus, Whetstone, Silver Ingots, and Iron Ore. 

How To Buy And Plant Highland Lotus

Buying and Planting Highland Lotus seeds in V Rising is not that difficult. It requires you to follow a few steps mentioned below in the guide. You will start by purchasing the seeds, setting up the resource farm, unlocking the recipe, and then ending it by harvesting. 

Purchasing The Seeds

Purchasing the seeds will require players to go to the Brighthaven slums in the Silverlight Hills. They will visit Ottar the Merchant here to buy the Highland Lotus Seeds. Buying these seeds is not that cheap, as each seed will require 200 Silver Coins. 

Collecting Silver Coins is one of the most challenging tasks in the game. There is no limit to buying the number of Highland Lotus seeds, but you need to collect enough Silver Coins before visiting Ottar the Merchant. 

Set Up Resource Farm

The next step after purchasing the seeds is setting up the resource farm. There are a few requirements you need to fulfill before setting up the farm. You need to have the following things to set up a resource farm.

• Some plant seeds.
• A garden area.

Make sure to have a garden area within your castle.

Unlocking The Recipe

You will place the seeds on the action bar to plant them. Press the key assigned to the specific slot to plant seeds. These seeds can be placed either on the normal dirt/grass or in the Garden area. 

One important thing to note here is that these Garden floors will not unlock automatically. The requirement is to beat a 34-level V Blood, Polora the Feywalker. It will result in unlocking the recipe.

Harvesting

After planting the seeds, you will wait for a couple of in-game days. The seeds will grow in the fully grown plants, and then these plants will have flowers. This will be a sign that plants are ready to be harvested. 

How To Farm Highland Lotus?

Farming Highland Lotus involves exploring the two Harpy Nests locations. One is the Northern Harpy Nest, and the other one is the Southern Harpy Nest. The name Harpy Nest itself shows that the location is filled with Harpies. Most of them are high-level Harpies such as level 60 Harpies, Harpy Sorceress, and Scratcher. 

Considering that you will encounter this situation in the later parts of the game means that the enemy you will encounter will be stronger than before. Moreover, it is recommended to use nothing else than iron weapons to face these enemies. You should wear a Merciless Hollow Fang Vestment to protect yourself. 

All these precautions are to make sure you have enough DPS against Harpies that are there in large numbers. Finally, the last thing to make sure of is to have plenty of Velmin Salve and Rats to heal quickly and stay alive in the process. 

Northern Harpy Nest

The Northern Harpy Nest has eight Highland Lotus plants that you can harvest. The Harpy Nest is safer as it is more spaced out. As a result, it is difficult to draw the attention of Harpies in this spaced-out region. 

Southern Harpy Nest

The Southern Harpy Nest is much similar to the Northern Harpy Nest, except for the fact that it only has seven Highland Lotus plants that you can harvest in V Rising. Additionally, if you are careless, you may stumble upon the V Blood, Morian the Stormwing Matriarch. The V Blood resides on the top of the nest, so you need to take care of it. 

All the resources in V Rising are important for various purposes. Similarly, Highland Lotus is essential for farming Silk. If you follow the steps mentioned in the guide, you will be able to get Highland Lotus easily.
