Potion Creation

In order to create potions, an Alchemist needs a specific type of manual, the skill Prepare Potion and different types of materials. Potions are a type of usable item typically used to aid players in surviving or attacking. Players also brew potions for sale to other players especially since lightweight condensed potions are not sold in NPC shops. While not strictly a consumable potion, the potion creation skill is used to create an embryo from which a homunculus is obtained.

Formula

Potion creation math is still disputed; however, the following equation appears to be most accurate at the moment:

Brewing Rate = [(PreparePotion_Lv × 3) + (PotionResearch_Lv) + (InstructionChange_Lv) + (JobLv × 0.2) + (DEX × 0.1) + (LUK × 0.1) + (INT × 0.05) + Potion_Rate]%

.

Potion Rate	Potion
+15% ~ +25%	Red Potion, Yellow Potion, White Potion
+5% ~ +15%	Alcohol
-5% ~ +5%	Acid Bottle, Marine Sphere Bottle, Bottle Grenade, Plant Bottle
-5%	Blue Potion, Anodyne, Aloevera, Embryo, Elemental Potions, Condensed Red Potion
-10% ~ -5%	Condensed Yellow Potion
-15% ~ -5%	Condensed White Potion, Glistening Coat

Potion Materials

Manuals are items needed to create potions. They can be purchased from the Alchemist Guild in Al de Baran, except for the Elemental Potion Creation Guide, which is obtained through a quest. Note that the Medicine Bowl is not an actual ingredient, but a catalyst for Prepare Potion.

Ranking

For Brewers there is a system in which players are ranked based on who can create the most potions.

• Rank Point +1: 3 Condensed Potions created without failure in a row.
• Rank Point +3: 5 Condensed Potions created without failure in a row.
• Rank Point +10: 7 Condensed Potions created without failure in a row.
• Rank Point +50: 10 Condensed Potions created without failure in a row.
• A fully successful brew from Spiritual Potion Creation 2 will grant 1280 points.

Alchemist ranks can be checked via usage of the /alchemist command ingame. Potions made by an Alchemist class player who is in the top 10 list will receive a 50% bonus to their efficacy. This does not apply to potions used through Aid Potion or Aid Condensed Potion.

Item Look & Feel

• When a potion is created successfully, its name will have the creator's name attached.

• Normally the creator's name will appear in blue. However, if the character that created the item has been deleted, the creator's name is lost, and their items become Nameless.
