With one arrow or bolt you will be able to:
- Light up the area your arrow hits (to see better in dark dungeons or dark nights)
- Set enemies you hit on fire
- Set flammable oil puddles, flammable gas, and beehives on fire by shooting them
- Lay short-lived fire traps that damage enemies with leveled damage where your arrow lands
These arrows are meant to be mid-level items, but should still be useful at higher levels
LORE:
So, how do these arrows work?
The arrow itself is a steel arrow with two major modifications
1. The arrowhead has been modified to include a reservoir (filled with Dwarven Oil) that opens when the arrow strikes its target
2. A striker strip made from Fire Salts that ignites due to friction against the bow as the arrow is fired.
Torch bolts are smaller and faster than Torch arrows, so to fit into lore fires generated by bolts do slightly less DOT and burn less duration. This is because they have less oil per projectile than the arrows.
Crafting the arrows:
To craft the arrows, you will need
- Marksman Level 25
The recipe to make a bundle of 24 arrows is
- 24 x Steel Arrows
- 1 x Dwarven Oil
- 1 x Fire Salts
The recipe to make a bundle of 36 bolts is
- 36 x Steel Bolts
- 1 x Dwarven Oil
- 1 x Fire Salts
