About this item

Craftable item prepared using a cracked pot.

A cocktail of oil-infused materials is sealed inside, and a short rope that aids throwing has been secured around the pot.

Throw at rearward enemies to soak them in oil, making them heavily susceptible to fire damage.

Crafting after obtaining Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [17]

Siofra River

Starting Site of Grace: Worshippers' Woods

Before you go

• Crafting Kit
• Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [17]
• Empty Cracked Pot
• Ingredients for one pot: 1 Melted Mushroom and 1 String
• 1,000 runes

1. Take the lift in Siofra River Well beside the Minor Erdtree in Mistwood. From the underground grace, travel northeast through the ruins to the second lift.
2. Ride up and follow the stream east into the large open cavern. Activate Siofra River Bank on the left, then head north through the basin to Worshippers' Woods.
3. Look southwest of Worshippers' Woods for tall wooden scaffolding around the stone ruins. Approach the wooden structure and climb the stairs to its ladder.
4. Climb onto the scaffolding and deal with the ancestral followers above. Follow the lower wooden walkway northwest around the pillar and into the cliffside passage beneath the waterfall.
5. Drop down at the end into the merchant's room. The music helps confirm you are close; he is hidden behind the ruins rather than standing on the open river bank.
6. Buy the cookbook from the Abandoned Merchant for 1,000 runes. You can also buy the other cookbook here, but each is a separate purchase.
7. If needed, buy the Crafting Kit from Kale at Church of Elleh for 300 runes. Owning a cookbook alone does not open Item Crafting.
8. Collect the listed ingredients and keep an empty Cracked Pot. Open Item Crafting outside combat and make Roped Oil Pot, then assign it to a quick-item slot or pouch.

Notes

• Throws oil behind your character. An enemy pursuing you can be coated without turning the throw into an ordinary forward attack.
• The coating makes the next Fire hit deal 50% more Fire damage and lasts up to 30 seconds before expiring. That first Fire hit consumes it.
• Apply the coating before the intended Fire attack. A weak Fire hit or lingering flame can use it up before a stronger follow-up.
• It affects only the Fire part of a split-damage hit, rather than adding the same 50% to its physical portion.
• Costs no FP, has no attribute scaling and adds String to the Oil Pot ingredients. More Arcane or pot-damage equipment does not strengthen the fixed oil effect.
• Each craft uses 1 Melted Mushroom and 1 String and occupies one empty Cracked Pot. The ingredients are spent, while throwing the pot returns its container for another mixture.
• Other recipes using the same container type share that supply. The recipe remains unlocked after use, but an empty pot does not refill itself without another craft.
