Salt the Wound is a Ranged threshold ability that can be bought from the Shattered Worlds Reward Shop for 63,000,000 shattered anima as a package along with the Greater Dazing Shot. It requires level 65 Ranged to use.

The ability damage range begins at 37.6–188%, and can increase to a maximum of 73.6–368% with Punctured stacked ten times. Unlike Shatter, the Constitution stack-based threshold ability, Salt the Wound does not remove stacks of Punctured, and instead refreshes Punctured's duration. The duration is refreshed even if Salt the Wound misses (splashes).

Unlike its partner ability Greater Dazing Shot, Salt the Wound does not require a two-handed ranged weapon to use. However, due to its low damage against targets without Punctured and the fact that a two-handed weapon is required to apply Punctured stacks, using Salt the Wound without a two-handed ranged weapon is only advisable if fighting alongside at least one other player who is using a two-handed ranged weapon.
