- For a list of locations in which the bait will work, see Necrophage.
Rancid Bait Meat is an item available in Dragon's Dogma: Dark Arisen.
Description[]
- "A hunk of flesh redolent with a sickly sweet aroma. Place it within an area of Bitterblack Isle to increase the chance of carrion-feeding monsters appearing."
Placing Bait Meat in certain areas causes a Necrophage to appear.
Locations[]
- Rancid Bait meat can be obtained by purifying Bitterblack Novelty Lv.1.
- Can be found in chests throughout Bitterblack Isle.
- Additionally it is sold by Barroch after completion of the Quest Eyes of the Deep.
- May be stolen from Leapworm with Master Thief (1% chance).
Enhancing[]
2 Star Enhancement
- 2x for 2 Star Enhancement of Purged Buckler.
Notes[]
- If the bait is placed outside the locale within the area the Necrophage is set to appear, the creature will not spawn until the party enters that specific place.
- If the bait is placed while fighting, the usual large enemy of the area will not spawn until the fight was finished or ceased.
- Each bait guarantees Necrophage to appear on two subsequent visits.
- Next bait may not work in the same location (quitting and loading fixes this, or just reentering the area will fix the preplaced bait).
- Should the first encounter last particularly long, the bait will expire and there will be no second spawn.
- Necrophages appear randomly too. In such cases they will sometimes be seen feasting on some meat from an unknown source - in other cases the creature will appear from nowhere.
- (Exploit) The meat can be used to repeatedly battle Necrophages - for details, see Farming Exploits.
