Unlocking the secrets of items in Tainted Grail: The Fall of Avalon hinges on two critical elements: bonfires and a rare resource called ethereal cobwebs. Mastering this system reveals hidden stats and determines item rarity.
Setting Up a Bonfire
- Activation: Press Q, select the campfire icon, and place it in a safe location (enemies can disrupt the process).
- Safety First: Always ensure your surroundings are secure before starting.
Essential Resource: Ethereal Cobwebs
- Source: Primarily dropped by enemies during nighttime—focus on farming weird spawns for higher yields.
- Quantity: Higher-tier items require more cobwebs, so stockpile them strategically.
Igniting the Bonfire for Identification
- Spend 10 ethereal cobwebs to activate the bonfire.
- Navigate to the Identify tab in the menu that appears.
- Select unidentified items from your inventory.
Cost varies by tier: Basic items are cheaper (e.g., 10 cobwebs), while Good-tier or rarer items may cost 15+.
Claiming Your Rewards
- Identifying an item often yields multiple rewards, including gear or potions.
- Prioritize high-tier items for better loot, but ensure your build aligns with the results (e.g., daggers vs. greatswords).
