Where to Find Camphor Timber in Phantom Blade Zero

Each Camphor stack below was logged on a PS5 run for Map Master, and the Phantom Blade Zero interactive maps and upgrade guides cover the rest of Soul’s materials. Pangzhen and the Mandate Encampment have the larger stacks, so a Ranged build speeds up once you reach them.

Phantom Blade Zero Camphor Timber: The Refined Tier for Ranged Edges

Ancient Timber covers Ranged edges up to level 10, and Camphor Timber is reported to take over above that, so the two never compete for the same level. Spend the Ancient Timber from the valley bags and forest piles first, and keep Camphor for the edge you’ve decided to push.

The reported Ranged edges are the Feather Bow, the Flying Dagger, Goldblaze, the Loong Trident, and the One-Eyed Bow, from Weeping Creek Valley through to Meigu Lake. The Feather Bow, Goldblaze, and every other Phantom Edge compare their damage and range before you commit.

Camphor Timber in the Village of Lu: Pairs for the First Refined Levels

The Village of Lu’s Camphor Timber comes in pairs of two, enough to start one edge on its refined levels. By this point you’ll have the Feather Bow from Purge the Sect, and likely the Flying Dagger from Zhang’s Crimson Forest treasures, so these pairs decide which of the two goes further.

Pick the edge you actually use in fights. The Feather Bow and the Flying Dagger are both Ranged, so the better choice is whichever one you land hits with, and how to earn the Flying Dagger through Quick Hand’s Request covers the steps if you still need the dagger.

Pangzhen and Mandate Encampment Camphor Timber in Phantom Blade Zero

Pangzhen’s Camphor comes in stacks of two, three, and four, and the Phantom Blade Zero map of Pangzhen and Mirage Estate places each one. Goldblaze, a third Ranged option, is reported to come from delivering Quick Hand Zhang’s Pangzhen treasures, so you may switch edges here.

The Mandate Encampment has a stack of five, one of the larger single piles of Camphor, and the Phantom Blade Zero map of the Mandate Encampment places it. The camp is reported to have plenty of optional fights, so collect the stack while you’re clearing its arenas rather than making a separate trip.

Which Ranged Edge Should Get Camphor Timber in Phantom Blade Zero

Commit to one Ranged edge before you spend Camphor Timber. Past level 10, getting materials back is reported to take a Phantom Reforge Talisman to reset an edge, sold by Zhang for 2,000 Remnant Dust, so switching after the refined levels costs you.

Every Phantom Edge also benefits from the Remnant Spark Cube, an accessory reported to add 12% damage to all edges once you restore it through Myst. The Remnant Spark Cube and other fragment accessories make a strong pairing for a fully refined bow or dagger.
