There are 10 Vampire Powers that you can acquire in V Rising. These powers can be unlocked by defeating Bosses and V Blood carriers. Like Magic Abilities, Vampire Powers can boost your elemental resistance and damage taken, increase your travel speed, grant shapeshifting abilities, or affect health regeneration.
Unlike Abilities, Vampire Powers do not have a cooldowns, due to the fact that they’re primarily used outside of combat.
Vampire Powers can be set via the Ability Selection menu (default J key). You can only set 8 powers at a time. Set powers can then be selected while in-game from a radial menu by holding down Left Ctrl.
It’s important to note that Vampire Powers can only be activated when you are not moving.
