Special effect[edit | edit source]
Enchanted ruby bolts have a chance of activating the Blood Forfeit effect. When activated, damage dealt to the target will be 20% of the opponent's current Hitpoints with a cap of 100 damage[1] and at the cost of 10% of the player's current Hitpoints. The effect does not activate if the player cannot spare the hitpoints below 10. A long, shrieking noise can be heard when this activates.
For low hitpoint opponents, this effect can be disadvantageous because the effect overrides bolts damage; for example, the effect might only cause 15 damage while a regular hit would cause 30. For this reason, it is often useful to also bring enchanted diamond bolts to use at the end of a fight when ruby bolts cause diminishing returns.
This enchantment is especially effective against opponents with a high number of Hitpoints, oftentimes bosses such as Vorkath and Nex.
The special effect has a 11% chance of activating in PvP and a 6% chance of activating in PvM. If the player has completed the Hard Kandarin Diary then these values increase to 12.1% and 6.6% respectively. The Kandarin Diary boost is always active regardless of whether the headgear is equipped.[2]
Enchanted ruby bolts are particularly powerful in conjunction with the Zaryte crossbow's special attack, which will guarantee the effect of these bolts with 10% boosted effectiveness for a max hit of up to 110 if the player successfully hits their target.
This effect rolls its chance of activation regardless of whether or not it passes an accuracy roll.
