11Overview33A lump of stone that only just passes for a ball. You will only hit true at close range.55Stone Bullets are the starter firearm projectile in Windrose, and the only bullet in the roster that applies a penalty to Ranged Damage rather than a bonus. The tooltip lists Ranged Damage as decreased by 20% and the accompanying Poor ballistics rating means the ball drifts badly outside of point-blank range. Stone Bullets exist because they are effectively free: three pieces of Stone produce five bullets with no station level requirement, so a Coastal Jungle player can keep a full stack topped up purely from roadside pickups.77Item Info99PropertyValueCategoryAmmoTier1RarityUncommonWeight0.1Stack Size40EffectRanged Damage decreased by 20%BallisticsPoor1111Crafting1212Stone Bullets are crafted at the Workbench with no station level requirement, making them the only bullet with an immediate craft at character start.1414StationIngredientsOutputDurationWorkbench3x Stone5x Stone Bullet1s1616Loot Sources1717Stone Bullets also appear as a guaranteed chest-inventory drop in a handful of early-game POIs, which can top up a stack before the player has loaded a Stone gathering tool.1919Where FoundQuantityChanceLocationPoi Boss Boatswain 0110100%Boss chamberPoi Cost Jungle Dugout Chest 014100%Coastal Jungle dugout2121Bullet Tier Comparison2222Stone Bullets are the bottom rung of the firearm ammo ladder and the only tier that lowers Ranged Damage.

The 20% Ranged Damage penalty stings against armored targets, but for trash mobs at point-blank range the damage shortfall is usually less important than the steady resupply from roadside stone.2929Switch to Copper Bullets as soon as Copper Ingots enter routine production, then to Iron Bullets the moment Foothills iron access is stable. The accuracy jump from Poor to Mediocre to Good is the biggest single bullet upgrade in the game, more so than any flat damage number.3131Keep a small Stone Bullet reserve for emergencies even late in the game. If your iron stocks run dry between Foothills mining runs, a stack of 40 Stone Bullets can keep firearms online against Coastal Jungle mobs without forcing you to switch to melee.3333Tips3535Bring a full stack of 40 into any Coastal Jungle excursion; stone piles on the roadside refresh on the daily respawn cycle and cover the craft cost.Because the Poor ballistics penalty hurts precision shots, engage firearms-only targets with melee when possible and save Stone Bullets for point-blank openers.Stone Bullets still work in a Blunderbuss at close range, where the pellet spread absorbs most of the accuracy penalty.Stone Bullets consume one Gunpowder charge per shot identically to higher-tier bullets, so pairing them with scarce gunpowder is wasteful against mid-tier or late-game targets.3737Which Firearms Use It3939Stone Bullets load every firearm class in the game: Pistols, Muskets, and Blunderbusses. The Poor ballistics rating hurts the long-range Musket most, so the close-range Blunderbuss is the most forgiving home for a stone load.4141See Also4343AmmoCopper BulletIron BulletBullet ArborumGunpowderPistolsMusketsBlunderbusses4545Details4747Properties4949PropertyValueWeight0.1Stack405151Crafted By5252Crafted at: Workbench5454IngredientQuantityStonex3
