About this item

Arrow whittled from animal bones tipped with a shard of crystal. Creates a resonating noise at the point of impact.

Craftable item. The fletching adds distance to the arrow's flight.

Corpse on the academy approach railing

Liurnia of the Lakes

Starting Site of Grace: Academy Gate Town

1. From Academy Gate Town, work north through the flooded ruins toward the long stairs up to the academy's southern gate.
2. Climb to the large landing guarded by Raya Lucarian soldiers and a fire-spitting siege weapon.
3. Search the left-hand railing as you face uphill for the hanging corpse. Loot it for six fletched arrows.

Water at the base of the sluice gate

Ainsel River

Starting Site of Grace: Ainsel River Sluice Gate

1. Find Ainsel River Well on the raised eastern side of Liurnia, north of Eastern Tableland and northeast of Church of Vows. Enter the round stone well building, pass the golem if necessary and ride its lift down to Ainsel River Well Depths.
2. Follow the ant tunnels to the burial-pit chamber, then take the western tunnel into the larger cavern at the sluice gate.
3. Before climbing the stone ramp, search the water near the gate and loot the corpse for ten fletched arrows. The grace is up the ramp, in the wall recess.

Notes

• Makes a noise at its impact point, useful for drawing an unaware enemy toward a place away from you. The sound does not charm the enemy into fighting for you.
• Adds 25 Physical attack power, compared with 28 for the unfletched version. Fletching improves flight distance, helping you place the distraction farther away.
• The preserved description calls it craftable, but no accessible crafting recipe makes this version. Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [11] makes the unfletched arrow instead.
• The academy approach holds six and the Ainsel sluice-gate water holds ten. These fixed stacks do not return when you rest.
• Fits ordinary bows and Light Bows and can be carried up to 99. It has no built-in status buildup or elemental damage.
• A distraction is most useful before an enemy starts fighting you. Do not rely on the sound to cancel an attack already coming toward you.
