Oil Pots are generally used when you have fire-wielding capabilities and would like to increase the amount of damage that your enemies take. You can throw an Oil Pot and immediately follow it up with a fire attack and take your opponent down quickly. This is effective against large groups of enemies as well as powerful single targets.
To find the crafting recipe, you will need to look for the Nomadic Warrior’s Cookbook [17] which is sold by a specific merchant at a certain location. To get there, you will need to make your way to the Siofra River in Mistwood just slightly north of the Minor Erdtree. Climb the wooden scaffolding as you fight the enemies there and turn left when you’re at the top. Follow the scaffolding until you make it to a bridge and a bricked door leading into a cave-like area. There is a fireplace in the room, as well as music playing.
The merchant lives just below this cave, so you will need to make your way down to find them. Once you interact with them, they can sell you the Nomadic Warrior’s Cookbook [17] for 1000 Runes. Now you can learn the recipe for Oil Pots which is 1 Melted Mushroom and 1 Cracked Pot. Collect Mushrooms from in and around the Eternal City. Cracked Pots need to be purchased for 300 Runes to 1500 Runes depending on the merchant location.
