Enshrouded 1.0 Bombs and Throwables List: Recipes, Unlocks and What Each One Does

All 13 throwables in Enshrouded 1.0, with the crafting station, materials and unlock condition for each one.

All 13 throwables in Enshrouded 1.0, with the crafting station, materials and unlock condition for each one.

This list covers 13 throwables in Enshrouded 1.0. Five are bombs: the Explosive Powder Ball, Explosive Powder Ball Net, Black Powder Ball, Explosive Crawler and Incendiary Ball. Five are Skull Summoning Vessels, numbered I to V. The last three are utility throwables: Fell Confusion Pheromones, the Water Balloon and the Snowball. All 13 are crafted.

Quick answer: craft the Explosive Powder Ball and Water Balloon by hand, the Snowball at the Workbench, the Skull Summoning Vessels at the Collector, and the other bombs and the Pheromones at the Alchemist (recipes also in every Alchemist recipe and the Bard, Collector and Fisher recipes).


Bombs

Every bomb card ends with the same line:

The damage caused by this Throwable scales with your Dexterity attribute.

The Explosive Powder Ball, the Net and the Black Powder Ball share one description:

An explosive with astounding power that can be thrown.

The Incendiary Ball sets the ground alight:

This bomb contains a highly flammable liquid, setting a large area on fire when deployed.

The Explosive Crawler goes looking for a target after it lands:

A mindless, throwable drone made from critter carapaces. Once deployed, the crawler will seek the nearest enemy and combust.

The Explosive Crawler is the only bomb whose card shows a Mana Cost and a Duration.


Skull Summoning Vessels

All five vessels share one card description:

Throw this mystical vessel to temporarily summon a skull companion.

Every vessel is made at the Collector, and each craft gives 3. Higher tiers cost more Mana, and the Duration is 60 seconds for tier I, 90 seconds for tier II and 120 seconds for tiers III to V. Each tier unlocks once you have its Ectoplasm material, except tier II, which unlocks with Giant Bones. The Necromancer skill and summon spells are in the summoner necromancer build.

Pheromones, Water Balloons and Snowballs

Fell Confusion Pheromones card:

Can be thrown to create a Pheromone Cloud that confuses Fell enemies, who run around in panic when affected.

Snowball card (more on Snow in how to get Snowballs):

A lumpy ball of snow. It’s harmless enough as long as you don’t put any rocks inside!

The Water Balloon applies status effects to whoever it hits:

A plump leather container that’s been filled with water. Throw it to make others Wet and Soaked!

The same card spells out both states:

Wet: Reduces Stamina and Stamina Regeneration by 30% for 15 minutes. Warmth reduces the remaining duration.

Soaked: Reduces Stamina and Stamina Regeneration by 30% for 30 seconds. Also reduces Ice and Shock Resistances by 30% but increases Fire Resistance by 30%.

Throwable damage skill

Vile Concoction is the skill that raises Throwable damage: 12% per rank, 1 skill point per rank, 3 ranks. Its card is in every Ranger skill.

How to read the tables

All three tables use the same columns. “Card values” holds the Mana Cost and Duration lines on the item card; bombs other than the Explosive Crawler have none. “Recipe” lists the materials for one craft: “or” means either material works, “makes N” is how many items one craft gives, and Water is the Water line on the card. “Unlock” is what you need to have before the recipe appears at its station.
