How to Use the Sussur Tree Bark

Used to Forge a Masterwork Weapon

Sussur Tree Bark is a key ingredient during the forging process of the Finish the Masterwork Weapon side quest. Once obtained, it can be combined with the furnace underneath the Blacksmith Building of the Blighted Village to produce a blue, Melting Flame.

To forge the Masterwork Weapon, combine a regular Dagger, Sickle, or Greatsword with the flame. This will reward you with a Sussur-type variant of the weapon with increased stats. Do note that you can only get one out of the 3 weapons, so choose wisely.
