The blisterwood tree is a special tree that grows in Darkmeyer, sealed inside the Arboretum. The trees were grown by Queen Efaritay of Hallowvale, who was also a renowned botanist that bred all kinds of plant life to use against the vampyres. The tree is particularly effective and harmful against vampyres, as the sap is poisonous to them and its wood is capable of twisting unpredictably even after the logs have been cut and processed.

Despite many attempts to kill it, the tree still survives in the highly secured vault. During Sins of the Father, the player manages to gain access to the Arboretum and obtain some blisterwood logs, which they use to enhance the Ivandis flail into a Blisterwood flail, which is the most powerful weapon against vampyres.

Bird nests are not dropped when woodcutting at the blisterwood tree.

• Unlike most trees, when the blisterwood tree "depletes", instead of being chopped down into a stump, it spawns a spider, along with a chat message stating A small spider jumps at you from the log you just cut.
