[[Bolt of Silk|Bolts of Silk]] are a [[rare crafting material]].
== Acquisition ==
 
There are [[Artisan]]s who can craft Bolts of Silk in [[Factions]], [[Nightfall]], and the [[Eye of the North]] expansion, but not in [[Prophecies]]. See the [[Artisan list]] for details.
 
 
All [[Artisan]]s who can craft Bolts of Silk charge:
 
*10 [[Pile of Glittering Dust|Piles of Glittering Dust]]
 
*10 [[Bolt of Cloth|Bolts of Cloth]]
 
*250 [[Gold]]
 
 
The most effective means of farming Bolts of Silk for Prophecies characters is to spend time hunting for spiders in [[Pre-Searing Ascalon]]. Spiders in Pre-Searing (except [[Moss Spider]]s) frequently drop [[Spider Web (Tyrian)|Spider Web]]s, which can be later salvaged into Bolts of Silk with an [[Expert Salvage Kit]]. Another way for non-Tyrian characters is killing [[Stalking Nephila]] directly outside of [[Sunspear Great Hall]] in [[Plains of Jarin]].
 
 
This item is commonly dropped by [[Outcast]]s in Factions, and can also be salvaged from their armor. Soloing them will generally yield a large quantity. [[Jade Brotherhood Knight]]s will also occasionally drop Bolts of Silk. Another alternative is to farm [[The Halcyon Job]] in [[Hard Mode]], in which Bolts of Silk drop fairly frequently.
 
 
 
Bolts of Silk can also be bought from [[Rare Material Trader]]s or [[salvage]]d with an [[Expert Salvage Kit]] from some [[Salvage Item]]s. Known items are listed at the bottom of this page.
