Blood Altar

The Blood Altar is a structure unlocked early on after completing the Getting Ready for the Hunt quest.

The Blood Altar assists in locating V Blood Carriers by "tracking" them with a red swirling blood cone (possibly representing the smell of blood) that appears periodically and points in the direction of the carrier, it is best to not move when gauging the location of a carrier as moving often changes the direction of the cones orientation which can lead to players heading in the wrong direction.

If the carrier has been killed recently, the blood cone will direct the player to the next spawning point of the tracked carrier, this is useful as some carriers can spawn in several different locations.

A carrier can still be killed, and all its rewards obtained, even if it was not tracked. Some V Bloods roam around, while others are stationary and always spawn in the same location, such as Grayson the Armourer who can always be found in the Bandit Armory.
