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]
• Ingredients per batch: 2 Melted Mushroom
• 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. Buy the Crafting Kit from Kalé for 300 runes if Item Crafting is unavailable.
8. Collect 2 Melted Mushroom. Outside combat, open Item Crafting and choose Soap. One craft makes 1.

Notes

• Washes dirt and other stains from your body and removes 100 points of Poison buildup. This lowers an unfilled Poison meter; it does not cure Poison once it has started draining HP.
• Rolling through poison or Scarlet Rot can leave a coating on you that keeps adding buildup after you leave the pool. Get onto clean ground, then use Soap to wash that coating away.
• Removing the coating and reducing the meter are different effects. Soap does not directly clear existing Scarlet Rot buildup or cure an active Scarlet Rot ailment. Use Preserving Boluses or an appropriate cleansing spell for the ailment itself.
• If you use a bolus while still covered in swamp residue, the coating can start filling the meter again. Cleaning yourself first avoids wasting the cure on repeated buildup.
• Two Melted Mushrooms make one Soap after obtaining Nomadic Warrior's Cookbook [17]. The Abandoned Merchant who sells the book is hidden behind the western scaffolding in Siofra River.
• Using it consumes one and costs no FP. Carry up to 99, with another 600 in storage.
