These tender morsels spark with electric energy that bind together dust-like particles of stale cheese. Ancient cheese expels a strong stale scent and is extremely volatile.

Ancient is a crafted cheese. It is one of the main baits used in the Acolyte Realm, Catacombs and Forbidden Grove.


Crafting Ancient Cheese

The main ingredients to create Ancient cheese are Stale Cheese and Ionized Salt. Stale cheese can be collected when the cheese goes stale when one sounds the horn. Ionized Salt is bought in the General Store of the Bazaar for 450 gold.

Three pieces

The first recipe provides 3 pieces of Ancient cheese for 3 Stale Cheeses.

Formula: Ancient (3 pieces)
Description Qty Cost
Stale Cheese 3 Loot
Ionized Salt 6 450
Total 2,700

Six pieces

As the Stale Cheese is somewhat laborious to gather, one can also consider making 6 pieces instead of 3, for the same amount of Stale Cheese and of Ionized Salt. The downside is that one needs to use 3 SUPER|brie+ which has been preliminary smashed into Magic Essence.

Magic Essence 3 Crafting

Ionized Salt 6 450

Imbuing Ancient Cheese

Using an Ancient Cheese Curd Potion converts either Brie or SUPER|brie+ cheese into Ancient cheese.

The hunter's title and the type of cheese used in the conversion both determine the amount of Ancient cheese generated and the gold required per piece.
