Ammo for a high-tech crossbow.

Overview

Rebar Bolt is an ammunition item used for high-technology crossbows and compatible advanced crossbow-type weapons. In game terms it functions as the projectile consumed by those weapons when fired; descriptions in several languages identify it explicitly as ammo for a "high-tech" or "technological" crossbow, indicating it is intended for use with the game's more advanced ranged melee-platform weapons rather than generic arrows or low-tech bolts.

Rebar Bolts behave like discrete ammunition stacks: weapons that accept crossbow-style bolts consume them when fired and must be reloaded with Rebar Bolts (or any other bolt-type ammo that a given weapon accepts). The item is reusable in the sense that bolts that remain lodged in enemy corpses can sometimes be recovered rather than lost, making retrieval an important part of managing supply.

  • Bolts stuck in enemy corpses can be retrieved by manually picking them up from the corpse. This allows efficient recycling of spent ammunition after combat and reduces the need to carry large reserves.
  • Using a harvesting action on a corpse will destroy any bolts that are stuck to it. Do not harvest remains if you intend to recover lodged bolts.
  • The Vacuum tool or device can be used to retrieve bolts from corpses that are out of the player's manual reach or positioned awkwardly. The Vacuum will pull up bolts that would otherwise be inaccessible without moving the corpse or entering a risky position.
  • Because Rebar Bolts are reusable when recovered, prioritize bolt retrieval after engagements where many bolts were expended. If you must harvest remains for resources, plan to recover bolts first or accept that those bolts will be destroyed.
  • Inventory management: treat recovered bolts as a key resource for crossbow users. Regularly check corpses and use the Vacuum in environments where corpses fall into gaps or behind obstacles.

No sources specify unique damage, weight, stack size, or special status effects for Rebar Bolts beyond their role as high-tech crossbow ammo. Use and conservation rely on retrieval behavior described above; players who exploit bolt recovery and Vacuum retrieval will maintain sustained crossbow ammunition without excessive scavenging for new bolts.
