Brewing

Use a Brewing kettle or a Brewing stand and choose Brew. Bring each recipe’s listed ingredients and bottles. Health and mana potions, including greater potions, make two per batch and use two empty bottles. Other brews make one. A spoiled batch consumes all its ingredients and bottles, leaves one spoiled brew and gives no XP.

Start Brewing

  1. Pick 3 berries from the bushes round town and buy 2 Small vials at a General store.
  2. Visit a starting town’s Brewing Hall and choose Brew at any of its four cauldrons. Other town courts keep their public kettles. At home, a Brewing stand works the same way.
  3. Brew 2 Health potions per batch at Brewing 1. Until Brewing 26 a brew can spoil now and then; a spoiled brew gives no XP.

More on Brewing: the stations, flasks, tonics and ward elixirs

Getting started

Starting towns have a Brewing Hall with four public cauldrons. Where a building cannot be placed, and in other settlements, the public crafting court keeps its kettle. At Carpentry 20, build a Brewing stand at home: it brews every recipe the kettle does. A general store sells small vials and glass flasks. To make your own, quarry bare rock in the desert for sandstone on every successful swing (Mining 20), smelt it into glass at a furnace (Smithing 20) and blow the glass into flasks with Crafting: a small vial at 10, a glass flask at 35 and a large flask at 65.

Potions and cave brews restore health and mana. A tonic helps one skill for 15 minutes, one tonic at a time: Builder’s for Carpentry, Forester’s for Woodcutting and Angler’s for Fishing. A ward elixir eases a dragon fight for 5 minutes: Trollhide against a dragon’s bite, Ashward against Ashcrown’s ash, and both can be up at once. Tonics and wards are lost on death or logout. Dragon blood for the Dragonheart draught drops from adult dragons, and now and then from a dragonling. Cooking makes food; Brewing makes everything you drink.

Why train it?

Potions open from Brewing 1, tonics from 15, cave brews from 65, ward elixirs from 70 and the Dragonheart draught at 80. A brew can spoil until your Brewing is 25 levels past its recipe; a spoiled brew gives no XP.

Health potion: 15 GC each at the Kitchen or the Smith, 13 GC at the general store. This is the sale price of a finished brew, not profit. The ingredients and the flask have value too, and a spoiled brew loses both. Tonics and ward elixirs are worth most to the players who use them; the Dragonheart draught cannot go on the Town Market.

Maximum level: 99. Open Skills in the game to see your current XP and next goal.
