Volatile crossbow bolts which explode upon impact, inflicting fire damage.

Hidden lore — revealed in game at high Inferno

Humanity's arrogant delusion that it had long ago achieved control over the power of fire amused many an Infernal Enchantress as they composed fleeting but devouring symphonies of flame.

Damage multipliers

Fire
×3.80
Poise
×3.80
Stamina
×1.25
Stagger
×1.25
Burn
×1.00

Status multipliers build a meter on the target rather than dealing damage on impact. What happens when it fills is covered on status effects.

Multipliers of what?

Of the carrier. A ×2.00 fire multiplier means twice the crossbow's fire attack rating — so the same ammo produces a different number on every carrier, and on every upgrade level.

The combined figure is not published yet: the multipliers are extracted, but the arithmetic joining them has not been checked against the game.

Measured in game

Marksman Crossbow +10 hit for 769, Split Crossbow +10 for 831.

It explodes

Detonates on impact. Anything caught in the blast takes the same figure as the direct hit, not a reduced splash. Verified in game

So against a group the figure on this page is per enemy caught, not per shot. That is the trade for its cost: it is the least efficient bolt per unit of ammunition and the most efficient one against more than one target.
