[[Bolt of Silk|Bolts of Silk]] are a [[rare crafting material]].
A Bolt of Silk is a [[rare crafting material]], which is required to craft certain armor types/parts for [[Elementalist]], [[Mesmer]], [[Ranger]], [[Warrior]] and [[Ritualist]] classes (see ''Usage'', below).
 
 
== Acquisition ==
 
Acquiring Bolts of Silk can be difficult and costly as there is only one [[Artisan]] who can craft Bolts of Silk; in addition, this artisan in particular is only available in [[Guild Wars Factions]]. The most effective means of acquiring Bolts of Silk for [[Guild Wars 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]]s, which can be later salvaged into Bolts of Silk with an [[Expert Salvage Kit]].
 
This item is often commonly dropped by [[Outcast]]s, as well as salvaging from their armor. Soloing them, often to kill their bosses, will give a large amount of it on the way.
 
 
For Nightfall players, spiders are abundant in the [[Plains of Jarin]], just outside the [[Sunspear Great Hall]].
 
 
In summary:
 
 
* [[Artisan]]s in [[Guild Wars Prophecies]] do not seem to be able to craft this material.
 
* In [[Guild Wars Factions]], [[Artisan]]s can craft Bolts of Silk from 10 [[Pile of Glittering Dust|Piles of Glittering Dust]], 10 [[Bolt of Cloth|Bolts of Cloth]], and 250 [[Gold]].
 
* Can be bought at [[Rare Material Trader]]s.
 
* Can be [[salvage]]d with an [[Expert Salvage Kit]] from some [[salvage]] items. Known items are:
 
** [[Spider Web]]s
 
**[[Maguuma Spider Web]]s
 
**[[Silken Spider Web]]s
 
**[[Crimson Skull Cape]]s
 
**[[Mursaat Garments]]
 
** other dropped robes and shifts
 
* Is dropped commonly by [[Outcast]]s.
