Description[]
Bullet Casings can be used in combination with some Ores, like Erisore or Umbrite, to make special bullets with effects that can aid you in battle, though they do have downsides. These can be found in Summer Isle, in The Furnace by talking to an NPC named Mag. You can also get a gunsmith in your Guild Base's blacksmith room for 1000 
, which does the same things as him. You require 1 Note for 5 Bullets Encased, rounding up to the nearest note. (ex. You need 27 notes for 133 bullets encased, rounded up to 135) It should be important to state that the maximum number of Bullets you can encase with just a single ore is 200.
The maximum amount of cased bullets you can have in your inventory is capped at 999, and you can't have more than one type of cased bullets at a time.
Bullet Effects[]
These bullets give a 10% PEN bonus, because they are considered normal bullets, they do not have any disadvantages.
The Bullet will slow down the target on hit (Bugged), however at a downside of dealing 20% less damage (Still applies) and the speed of the bullet being reduced (Bugged).
The Bullet will have 10% increased damage on hit, however at a downside of the firing speed of the gun being reduced by a 25%.
The Bullet will apply a 50% anti-heal on hit, however at a downside of the damage being reduced by 20%.
The Bullet will apply poison on hit, however at a downside of the damage being reduced by 20%.
- The bullet itself does 0 damage and the damage is fully transferred to the poison.
Trivia[]
- Coal, rock, iron (not the default bullets), and astruline, are minerals not compatible with bullets and therefore cannot be used to encase them.
- Stormeye's and Rosen's Hellflames's shots can use encased bullets.
- Right now the bullets that work are iron (default), erisore, irithine, and umbrite.
- Irithine bullets saw use in PvE due to massive damage; HOWEVER, this was significantly nerfed as of the updates on August 13th, 2025, and August 19th, 2025.
- Erisore's bullets seem to simply apply the same effect as the Ring of Pestilence, so it's more advisable to use the ring and avoid the damage reduction.
- The effects of minerals on bullets actually only apply to the "explosion" of the shot and not the projectile, this ironically makes using encased bullets more convenient in rifles and 2H pistols than 1H pistols.
