Seared Slaughterfish

A small seared fillet of slaughterfish that restores 5 Health; it is not on the cooking menu and turns up ready-made.

Seared Slaughterfish is a quickly cooked fillet of slaughterfish. It is a small, light portion, weighing only 0.1, and is worth 5 gold.

Effects

  • Restores 5 Health

A simple instant heal with no other effect. Five points is at the low end of what food restores, so it is mainly a snack to eat between fights rather than in the middle of one.

Where to find it

Unlike Salmon Steak, Seared Slaughterfish does not appear among the cooking pot recipes, so you cannot make it yourself. It has to be found already prepared; the sources used for this page do not list fixed spots or vendors.

Good to know

Slaughterfish themselves are a source of alchemy ingredients such as Slaughterfish Scales and Slaughterfish Eggs.
