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
There is only one Artisan who can craft Bolts of Silk, 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 Spiders) frequently drop Spider Webs, which can be later salvaged into Bolts of Silk with an Expert Salvage Kit. This item is often commonly dropped by Outcasts, 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.
For Faction players, another way to acquire Bolts of Silk is by killing Jade Brotherhood Knights in Wajjun Bazaar. However, these drops are not that common.
Another alternative is to farm The Halcyon Job in Boreas Seabed in Hardmode, bolts of silk drop fairly frequently.
In summary:
- Artisans in Guild Wars Prophecies do not seem to be able to craft this material.
- In Guild Wars Factions, Artisans can craft Bolts of Silk from 10 Piles of Glittering Dust, 10 Bolts of Cloth, and 250 Gold.
- Can be bought at Rare Material Traders.
- Can be salvaged with an Expert Salvage Kit from some salvage items. Known items are listed at the bottom of the page.
- Is dropped commonly by Outcasts.
