Ruby bolts (e) detail

Enchanted ruby bolts are adamant bolts tipped with ruby bolt tips and enchanted with the spell Enchant Crossbow Bolt (Ruby) by a player with level 49 Magic. The spell enchants 10 ruby bolts at a time and uses 1 blood rune, 1 cosmic rune, and 5 fire runes.

Enchanted ruby bolts have a chance of triggering the Blood Forfeit effect. This will remove 20% of the opponent's current Hitpoints (Capped at 100 damage)[1] but at the cost of 10% of the player's current Hitpoints. It does not work if the player cannot spare the Hitpoints. A long, shrieking noise can be heard when this activates.

This enchantment is especially effective against opponents with a high number of Hitpoints, such as black dragons. These bolts are most often used in boss-hunting, commonly against God Wars Dungeon bosses such as Kree'arra and Commander Zilyana.

The special effect has a 11% chance of activating in PvP and a 6% 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]
