Vampire Survivors is a roguelite where you may be asking yourself, how to get the Stone Mask? As you work your way through the achievements, you’ll unlock new items that can be gotten from leveling up. Until completing those achievements, you’ll have a smaller pool of items to pick. And this can make things tougher especially if you’re trying to get coins.
The best item to help you get more money in Vampire Survivors is the Stone Mask because it gives you an extra 10% more coins. While you can spend coins on the Power Up screen toward Greed for the same buff, you won’t be able to get this item from leveling up. This requires making some progress first.

How to Get Stone Mask in Vampire Survivors
Gennaro is one of my favorite characters if you’re struggling to reach level 20 in the Mad Forest. I tend to focus Whip, King Bible, and Armor.
Before you can get this unique item, you’ll need to unlock the second stage first. This requires reaching level 20 in the Mad Forest with any character. Once you do, the Inlaid Library will become available for a new experience with different enemies. This is also where you’ll need to go to find the Stone Mask in Vampire Survivors.
The trick to finding the Stone Mask is to run for a few minutes to the right, along the top of the screen. Eventually, you should come across the item on the floor in a small alcove. If you run too low on the screen, you may pass it without realizing and run too far.
Even if you get swarmed and lose your run after picking up the Stone Mask, you’ll still get the achievement.
This is why I recommend running close to the top of the screen or at least close enough to see the edge. As you can see in my screenshot above, it only took me a little over two minutes to find the Stone Mask. All you need to do after finding it is run over it to unlock it for future runs. This will also give you the first level of the item in your current run.
As previously mentioned, this item is great for farming coins so you can afford more Power Ups. Whether that’s buying more levels of Greed to increase your overall coin gain or Armor to survive longer. Continue reading our Vampire Survivors guide for another unique item you can find in the Inlaid Library.
Getting the Empty Tome in Inlaid Library
While you won’t complete the Empty Tome achievement unlocking it this way, this is one method to get it.
Another item players can find in the Inlaid Library is the Empty Tome even though you can get this from an achievement. All you have to do is hold six different weapons at once and you’ll unlock the Empty Tome. This adds it to the level-up pool when picking an item for your current build.
However, you can also find it in the Inlaid Library as an item you can gather off the floor. Unlike finding the Stone Mask by running to the right for a few minutes, you’ll need to run to the left instead. You’ll come across the Empty Tome laying on the floor in a small alcove along the top of the screen as well.
Reducing your weapon cooldown is great for clearing enemies, regardless of the weapon.
This can add an extra item to your current run and help you survive even longer. Especially since the Empty Tome tends to benefit every weapon item you can get. It reduces weapon cooldown by 8% and continues to stack with each level.
That’s all there is to this Vampire Survivors guide on how to get Stone Mask. Be sure to comment below if you have some tips and tricks of your own for surviving longer.
