Enchanted ruby dragon bolts have a chance of triggering the Blood Forfeit effect. This will remove 20% of the opponent's current Hitpoints (Capped at 100 damage)^[1] but at the cost of 10% of the player's current Hitpoints. It does not work if the player cannot spare the Hitpoints. A long, shrieking noise can be heard when this activates.

For low hitpoint opponents, this effect can be disadvantageous because the effect overrides bolts damage; for example, the effect might only cause 15 damage while a regular hit would cause 30. For this reason, it is often useful to also bring enchanted diamond bolts to use at the end of a fight when ruby bolts cause diminishing returns.

This enchantment is especially effective against opponents with a high number of Hitpoints, oftentimes bosses such as Vorkath and Nex.

The special effect has an 11% chance of activating in PvP and a 6% chance of activating in PvM. If the player has completed the Hard Kandarin Diary then these values increase to 12.1% and 6.6% respectively. The Kandarin Diary boost is always active regardless of whether the headgear is equipped.^[2]

Enchanted ruby bolts are particularly powerful in conjunction with the Zaryte crossbow's special attack, which will guarantee the effect of these bolts with 10% boosted effectiveness for a max hit of up to 110 if the player successfully hits their target.

This effect rolls its chance of activation regardless of whether or not it passes an accuracy roll.
