Short Horn

Overview

Short Horn is an unusual entry in the Mushrooms and Herbs category of gatherables in Crimson Desert. Despite being classified as a medicinal herb, it functions primarily as a raw crafting component. Small but sturdy, Short Horn is suitable for crafting tools and ornaments, and it provides a stamina restoration effect when processed through alchemy.

Item Properties

Where to Find

Short Horn appears in scattered locations across Pywel. It does not have a single concentrated region like some other herbs, making it something you collect opportunistically during exploration.

• Rocky Outcrops: Short Horn tends to spawn near rocky terrain and stony ground rather than in meadows or dense forests.

• Mountainous Edges: The borders between forested areas and rocky hillsides are productive foraging spots.

• General Exploration: Because of its scattered distribution, the best strategy is to pick it up whenever you spot it rather than planning dedicated farming routes.

Uses

Crafting

Short Horn's primary value lies in its use as a crafting material. Its sturdy composition makes it appropriate for tool construction and decorative ornaments. Players working on Greymane Camp upgrades or equipment maintenance may find Short Horn useful as a component.

Alchemy

When processed through alchemy, Short Horn produces stamina restoration elixirs. This places it in the same functional category as the three mushroom species (Coral Mushroom, Oakwood Mushroom, Pine Mushroom), though mushrooms are generally more abundant for this purpose.

Tips

• Short Horn is more valuable as a crafting material than as an alchemy ingredient. Prioritize using mushrooms for stamina elixirs and save Short Horn for crafting needs.

• Its scattered distribution means you should not pass it up when you see it. The supply builds slowly over time through casual collection.

• If you are running low on stamina restoration materials and have no mushrooms, Short Horn is a viable substitute for alchemy brewing.
