Ashwood, Charred Bone and Flametal all come out of the Ashlands, and the Ash Fang is what the Black Forge makes of them: a bow built entirely from the biome you carry it through. It deals 82 pierce damage. That 82 total damage ranks 3rd among bows, so it is a step on the ladder rather than the top of it. Pierce damage hurts a Tick or a Troll more than most things, which is what to carry it for.
How to Craft
You craft it at a level 3 Black Forge from:
- 10x Ashwood: chopped from scorched trees in the Ashlands.
- 16x Charred Bone: dropped by the Charred in the Ashlands.
- 5x Flametal: smelted from Flametal Ore in a Blast Furnace.
- 5x Bonemaw Tooth: dropped by the Bonemaw Serpent in the Ashlands seas.

When to Use It
This is late game gear. Flametal is found in the Ashlands, the furthest south the map goes.
Upgrades
You can upgrade it 3 times after crafting, and each level needs the station one step higher than the last. The other figures on this page are for quality 1, so this table shows where your own copy sits:

Properties
It deals 82 pierce, plus spirit once it is upgraded. The base weapon is plain pierce, and the upgrade levels add spirit damage to every arrow it fires, so upgrading changes what the bow is rather than only how much damage it does.
Fit the gemstone before you upgrade. An upgraded Ash Fang does not keep its quality level when you fit a gemstone: it comes back at quality 1 and you pay for every upgrade again. You can choose between 3 versions: Blood Fang (Bloodstone), Storm Fang (Iolite) and Root Fang (Jade).
Notes
- Holding the primary attack draws the bow, which improves accuracy and damage until you let go. Blocking cancels the draw and keeps the arrow.
- Draw time is 2.5 seconds at skill 0 and 0.5 at 100, but a bow can only fire every 0.8 seconds, a cap you reach at about skill 85.
- Arrow damage is added to the bow's base damage before any other calculation, so the arrow benefits from skill and quality too.
