Cathy Galloway | 913 comments Potions
Potions may be used during or after battle. They do not replace your turn during battle and as many potions as you want can be used at any time.

Potion Shelf
• Minor Heal Potion - 3 Gold - Allows healing up to 5 health during a battle.

• Heal Potion - 6 Gold - Allows healing up to 10 health during a battle.
• Major Heal Potion - 9 Gold - Allows healing up to 15 health during a battle.

• Minor Poison Potion - 6 Gold - Poisons the monster causing 2 amount of additional damage at the beginning of the turn.

• Enhanced Weapon Potion - 9 Gold - Increases the damage of a weapon by 3 for the remainder of the week.

• Damage Potion - 12 Gold - For the remainder of the week attack and magic power are increased by 3 points each.

• Find Items Potion - 6 Gold - Magically obtain half the items needed for a specific quest. (Note the use of this potion when turning in your quest. If an odd number of items is required, the potion rounds down the reward. Example: Requires 3 items, potion provides 1. Requires 4 items, potion provides 2.) Note that this is only valid for items you receive in the game i.e. from quests or monsters.

• Time Walking Potion - 9 Gold - Allows one quest to be completed after it has been removed from the current quest list.

• Duplication Potion - 12 Gold - Allows duplication of one book currently held or in use by your hero. Duplicated books may be used for the same quest or activity or used in a new one. Books that have already been applied to an activity or quest may be duplicated.

• Weakening Potion - 6 Gold(must be unlocked through Alchemy That! quest) - Reduces your attack power to half of normal for both sword and staff (rounded up).

• Transmogrification Potion - 3 Gold(must be unlocked through Alchemy That! quest) - Transforms 1 dropped item from a common monster into any other dropped item from a common monster.

• Pet Plus Potion - 12 Gold(must be unlocked through Alchemy That! quest) - Doubles the effects of any pets of the hero for one week.

• Shield Potion - 15 Gold - Halves the damage taken by monsters for a single turn.

• Growing Strength Potion - 15 Gold - Every turn increases the attack power of both weapons by 1. (First Turn +1, Second Turn +2, Third Turn +3). Lasts for a single battle

• Monster Re-breather (spawns common monsters every day for 1 week)

• HP Bounce Potion: Not able to be purchased at this time. When used, this potion ensures that if your hero drops below 0 HP, they will bounce back to positive HP equal to the amount they went below zero. (Example: Hero has 20 HP, uses HP Bounce Potion. Monster deals 50 damage. Hero takes 20 damage, bounces back, and gains 30 HP. Hero now has 30 HP.)

• Greater Poison Potion: Not able to be purchased at this time. Poisons the monster, dealing an additional 10 damage at the beginning of each turn. Note: Minor Poison Potion and Greater Poison Potion effects cannot be combined—only one can be active

• Stoneskin Potion: Not able to be purchased at this time. Grants complete immunity from all damage for one turn, protecting your hero from any harm.

• Re-animation potion- 50 Gold- Resurrects a defeated rare monster (including rare magical ones) as a ghostly version of its former self. Works only on monsters you originally defeated longer than a year ago. This ghost is far more dangerous than the original, with both its attack power and health doubled.

Upon defeating the ghost, you receive the same amount of XP and regular loot (such as potions, potion tokens, mercenary coupons, and gold) as you would for slaying the original creature. Any monster-specific items (such as gems, orbs, or body parts) will appear as the "shadow" of the original, and can be used only once before they dissipate permanently (e.g., the Shadow of the Orb of Fire grants +3 AP to your magic staff for a single battle).

Each rare monster can be reanimated only once, and the process does not work on Halloween Monsters, other Event Monsters, and zombies, as they’ve already been reanimated once before. You must defeat all the monsters in one wave before you can start reanimating those from the next. This highly specialized item cannot be duplicated by the Magical Pumpkin or exchanged for a Potion Token—(must be unlocked through Alchemy That! Part II: The Spectral Brew quest)

Sophie (drsophie) | 5765 comments Mod
Would you be interested in signing up for the new quest here that I've set up this month? I could really do with some experienced players to help it run.

It's going to be the start of me revamping some of the old quests and hopefully getting a new quest out every month or so for you to work on.
