11Overview22Bloodstone is a mid-tier ore mineral found in the more remote and dangerous regions of Pywel in Crimson Desert. Recognizable by its deep reddish hue, Bloodstone is notable for its toxic properties. The ore contains mercury, which releases poisonous gases when disturbed during mining. Despite the hazards, Bloodstone is a valuable refinement material used at the blacksmith to upgrade weapons, armor, and metal shields.44Item Properties77PropertyValueCategoryMinerals (Ore)SubcategoryMid-tier OreDescriptionReddish ore with toxic properties; contains mercury, requiring protective equipment to mineObtainable ViaMining with pickaxe, Force Palm AttackStackableYes99Where to Find1010Bloodstone deposits are less common than Iron Ore or Copper Ore and appear in remote areas that are harder to reach. The ore is mined from deposits using a pickaxe (purchased from the Provisioner's Shop in Hernand) or by using the Force Palm Attack ability.1212South of Tashkalp: A Bloodstone deposit sits south of Tashkalp town in the Crimson Desert region. This is one of the more convenient deposits to reach if you are already in the area.Northern Crimson Desert road: Multiple Bloodstone clusters line the main road heading north from Tashkalp toward Trader's Expanse. This is the best farming path for Bloodstone, with several distinct deposit locations spread along the route.Delesyia region: Deposits appear on the cliff face west of Delesyia town, accessible from the road leading out of the settlement.Pailune mountains: Remote deposits can be found in the mountainous terrain of Pailune.1414For a complete map of all deposit locations, see the Bloodstone Locations article.1616Mining Hazards1818Bloodstone is the only ore in the game with a specific mining hazard. When you strike a Bloodstone deposit, it releases poisonous gas due to the mercury content. Protective equipment is recommended when mining Bloodstone to avoid taking damage from the toxic fumes. If you do not have protective gear, mine quickly and move away from the deposit between strikes to minimize exposure.2020Uses2222Bloodstone is used at the blacksmith for refinement of the following equipment:2424Weapons: Various melee and ranged weapon types require Bloodstone for mid-tier refinement upgrades.Armor: Plate armor pieces use Bloodstone in their upgrade paths.Metal Shields: All non-wooden shield types can be refined using Bloodstone.2626Bloodstone occupies a tier between common ores (Iron, Copper) and rare gems (Azurite, Epidote). It is needed for mid-game equipment upgrades when basic ores are no longer sufficient.2828Best Early Farming Spot3030The best early-game Bloodstone farming location is the ravine south of Rocca's Hill. Five Bloodstone veins are clustered along a vertical strip in the cliffside near the top of the eastern hills. A single run through this area yields around 10 Bloodstone, which is enough to push through the first several refinement upgrades.3232Additional early locations include the Haunted Hills north of the "N" in Hernand on the map, the Mistwind Stepped Hillside south of the "N" in Hernand, and the Anvil Riverside Terrace east of Anvil Hill in Demeniss.3434For a deeper breakdown of mining tools, every confirmed deposit, recommended routes, and a current respawn-cycle method, see the Bloodstone Farming Guide article.3636Purchasing Bloodstone3838Bloodstone is available for purchase at Equipment Shops across Pywel. Vendor stock restocks every 3 to 7 in-game days. Equipment Shops are located in Hernand, Demeniss, Pailune, and other major settlements. Purchasing Bloodstone from vendors is a reliable fallback when mining deposits are depleted.4040Tips4242The northern road from Tashkalp toward Trader's Expanse has the highest concentration of Bloodstone deposits. Walk the full length of the road and mine every deposit for maximum yield.Bloodstone is rarer than Iron or Copper, so mine every deposit you encounter while exploring the Crimson Desert and Pailune regions.Be prepared for the toxic gas when mining. Having health recovery items on hand is useful if you take poison damage from the mercury fumes.Deposits respawn after a period of time. Revisit productive locations periodically to maintain your Bloodstone supply.If you are heading to Delesyia, check the cliff face west of town for additional Bloodstone before entering the settlement.The Mining Knuckledrill grants a 10% chance (up to 30% at max refinement) to mine additional Bloodstone per swing.Equipment Shops restock Bloodstone every 3 to 7 in-game days. Check vendors as a supplement to mining when you need Bloodstone urgently.
