Potions Each of the eight common reagents as well as two of the necromantic reagents is the principal ingredient in one or more potions, and the reagent used lends its potions a distinctive color. The table below lists each reagent, the distinctive color of its potions, the names of the respective potions, and the general effect of those potions. Alchemists with the Mondain's Legacy expansion should seek out Heartwood to learn the rare and powerful alchemic recipes of the Elves.
Using Alchemy To make a potion, double-click on your mortar and pestle. You are presented with the Alchemy Menu, where you may choose the type and strength of potion you wish to make. If successful, the potion is automatically poured into an empty bottle in your backpack. You will need to have an empty bottle or a potion keg in your backpack in order to create a potion. Note: You will not be able to craft any items if your backpack already contains the limit of 125 items.
Potion Kegs Potion kegs provide a means of storing large quantities of potions in one place. To place potions in a potion keg, drag and drop a potion bottle on it. Each keg can store one type of potion. If you have an empty bottle and a potion keg that contains at least one of the same type of potion that you are creating in your backpack, any potions you create will automatically be poured into the potion keg. To determine how many potions are in a Potion Keg, click on the keg: 0 charges: The keg is empty. 1-4 charges: The keg is nearly empty. 5-19 charges: The keg is not very full. 20-29 charges: The keg is about one quarter full. 30-39 charges: The keg is about one third full. 40-46 charges: The keg is almost half full. 47-53 charges: The keg is approximately half full. 54-69 charges: The keg is more than half full. 70-79 charges: The keg is about three quarters full. 80-95 charges: The keg is very full. 96-99 charges: The liquid is almost to the top of the keg. 100 charges: The keg is completely full.
