Crafting after obtaining Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [6]

Limgrave

Starting Site of Grace: Fort Haight West

Before you go

• Crafting Kit
• Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [6]

1. Ride east from Fort Haight West and climb the approach to the fort, watching the soldiers and Pumpkin Head.
2. Enter the gate and climb the first set of stairs inside.
3. Before climbing the tall tower, enter the dark room off the stairway.
4. Loot the cookbook inside. The medallion half is in a different chest farther up the tower.
5. Buy the Crafting Kit from Kalé at Church of Elleh for 300 runes if Item Crafting is still locked. The cookbook alone does not unlock the crafting menu.
6. With the book and materials in your inventory, open Item Crafting outside combat and select Bloodbone Arrow. One craft makes 10.

Notes

• One craft makes 10, using 3 Thin Beast Bones and 1 Bloodrose. You keep the cookbook and Crafting Kit; only the ingredients are spent.
• Ammunition for bows and light bows. It does not fit a greatbow, crossbow or ballista weapon.
• Adds 28 Physical attack power to the shot. This is the ammunition contribution, before the ranged weapon, skill, distance and enemy defenses determine the actual damage.
• This version saves the Flight Pinion but has shorter flight than its fletched counterpart. Use the fletched version for distant targets rather than assuming the same shot will reach equally well.
• Has 55 base Blood Loss buildup per ordinary hit. The target's resistance must be overcome before the status triggers; damage and buildup are different parts of the shot.
• Ranged skills and burst weapons can apply their own buildup modifiers. Several projectiles connecting does not always apply the full ordinary-hit value for each one.
• Blood Loss causes a burst when the target's meter fills. These shots do not create a separate bleeding damage-over-time effect, and enemies immune to Blood Loss will only take the direct hit.
• Arcane only strengthens the buildup when the weapon firing the arrow has suitable Arcane scaling, such as Serpent Bow. Raising Arcane while using an ordinary crossbow does not increase its Blood Loss buildup.
• Carry up to 99 of this type. It has its own stack, separate from the other arrow types.
