Draugr Fang

Draugr Fang is a craftable bow that becomes available after the Huntsman Bow, and it is built at a level 2 forge. It fires arrows and deals both piercing and poison damage, making it one of the strongest ranged weapons for sustained damage and status pressure. Like other bows, holding the attack button draws the string longer, which improves accuracy, damage, and arrow velocity, at the cost of more stamina. It has no alternate attack; pressing block instead cancels the draw.

The bow’s poison damage stacks with poison from poison arrows, so it can be paired with those arrows to increase total poison output. It also gives off a glow, which makes the player slightly easier to spot while sneaking. Because of this, it is powerful for combat but less ideal for stealth than a non-glowing bow.

Its first attack scales through four quality levels:

• Quality 1: 47 piercing, 5 poison
• Quality 2: 50 piercing, 10 poison
• Quality 3: 53 piercing, 15 poison
• Quality 4: 56 piercing, 20 poison

The weapon also has a 3x sneak attack bonus. It weighs 1.5, has a movement speed penalty of 5%, and its defensive and parry values scale from 5 to 7.5 defense and 7.5 to 11.25 parry force, with a 1.5x parry bonus.

Upgrading Draugr Fang increases its durability from 100 to 150, 200, and 250. Each upgrade requires the following materials:

• Quality 1: 10 Ancient Bark, 20 Silver, 2 Deer Hide, 10 Guck
• Quality 2: 5 Ancient bark, 10 Silver, 2 Deer hide, 2 Guck
• Quality 3: 10 Ancient bark, 20 Silver, 4 Deer hide, 4 Guck
• Quality 4: 15 Ancient bark, 30 Silver, 6 Deer hide, 6 Guck

Its required forge tier rises from 2 to 5 as it is upgraded, while repair always requires a level 2 forge.

In practice, Draugr Fang is a strong mid-to-late game bow that rewards careful aiming and stamina management. The projectile follows a ballistic arc, so long-range shots need to be aimed slightly above the target. Its combination of piercing damage, poison damage, and strong sneak attack scaling makes it effective against unaware enemies and durable targets alike.
