Where Do You Find Ritual Ink Ingredients?
Ritual ink ingredients are four specific collectible items gathered across the swamp, Pinewood Hills, and undead encounter zones. Demon Hunter Jane inside the Buried Library directs players to find the Bog Witch in the swamp near Delores Ranch. Speaking with the Bog Witch reveals the four required components for brewing:
- Red Mushroom: Gathered from the ground outside the witch's swamp cabin using the foraging interaction.
- Raw Animal Meat: Obtained by hunting wild fauna in the swamp, such as an alligator.
- Lavender: Picked in the Pinewood Hills area, identifiable by its purple hue.
- Cursed Medallion: Looted directly from undead Union soldier ghosts that patrol Pinewood Hills, Ashburn Prison, the church, and areas outside the swamp.
Undead soldiers consistently appear during nighttime cycles around 6:00 p.m. in-game time. In a demonstration by the Daily Friend YouTube channel, players defeated these hostile ghosts in one shot using a spectral lynx headshot. Because collected raw ingredients drop upon character death, players must walk or ride back to the Bog Witch rather than resetting their characters.
How Do You Brew Ritual Ink at the Cauldron?
The brewing process is a five-second timed reaction inside the Bog Witch cauldron that yields a permanent vial of ritual ink. Once all four ingredients rest in your inventory, interact with the cauldron standing outside the Bog Witch cabin and submit the items to start the brew.
Unlike the loose gathering ingredients, ritual ink does not drop upon character death and does not expire. After the ink appears in your inventory, you can safely reset your character to fast-travel back to the Buried Library spawn point.
The witch's camp also serves as an event merchant where spare cursed medallions purchase exclusive cosmetics and utility gear. Exchanging medallions unlocks the Witch Cloak, Occult Holster, Spectral Lantern, and a limited-time wand. Players tracking economy metrics on the Rolimon's tracking page can monitor shifts in event participation while gathering these items.
How Do You Use Ritual Ink in the Buried Library?
The Buried Library crypt altar is a stone activation mechanism that consumes ritual ink to open the portal into the Forest of Bones. Enter the Buried Library, proceed into the chamber lit with green light near Demon Hunter Jane, and locate the stone altar. Equipping the ritual ink and left-clicking on the surface initiates the sequence, opening the heavy stone gateway leading to the underworld.
Passing through the gateway leads into the revamped Forest of Bones trail. Players can summon a personal horse to traverse the mountain paths toward the battle fort, or wait for the barge transport. Setting a personal tent near the fort entrance establishes a convenient local respawn point before challenging the encounter.
Inside the fort, teams confront the boss encounter against the Colonel, as detailed in our colonel boss fight breakdown. Boss skirmishes on public servers allow multiple gunslingers to coordinate fire, whereas private servers feature modified payout systems. According to the official Roblox game page:
To ensure fairness, private servers have reduced loot and payout. — official Roblox game page description
Equipping specialized gear like the paterson navy or Halloween-themed event weapons provides bonus damage against the Colonel and his summoned ghostly waves.
What Rewards Drop After Opening the Crypt?
Colonel boss rewards are exclusive Halloween event items and high-value currency items dropped from fort chests. After the Colonel falls, players claim the spectral saber resting in the fort and unlock three reward chests containing the following items:
- Crafting Components: Shattered gun body, shattered gun blade, and shattered gun barrel, which belong to upcoming craftable gun parts.
- Collectible Trinkets: Gold bars, white gold, gold rings, ornate rings, and cursed medallions.
- Rare Artifacts: The Cursed Lyre musical instrument and the Raging Soul item.
- Returning Cosmetics: The Scornful Pumpkin hat, the Occult Lantern, and the Plague Doctor Mask.

Mount Choices for the Crypt Exit Portal
Mount sacrifice mechanics determine whether a player unlocks Craig, the event's exclusive spectral horse. Riding a mount directly into the underworld extraction portal sacrifices that animal and replaces it with Craig in the player's stable. Craig displays standard Mustang stats, appearing as a rotting zombie steed during daylight hours and transforming into a glowing spectral horse at night.
| Mount Option | Recommended Use | Cost or Consequence |
|---|---|---|
| Mule | Sacrificing at the underworld portal | Consumed upon entering the portal |
| Donkey | Budget sacrifice to unlock Craig | Consumed upon entering the portal |
| Mustang | Riding the Forest of Bones trail | Retained mount not meant for sacrifice |
Players should purchase an inexpensive mule or donkey specifically for this run. Entering the exit portal on foot teleports the player out without granting the steed, while sacrificing a top-tier mount wastes valuable cash. Only one player should ride into the portal at a time to prevent sacrifice registry errors.
