TIP |
Pure potions contain 2 doses of Heroism for clerics, and Bravery for non-clerics. The potion may be used to bless a suitable weapon for 1 x level of non-cleric, or 3 x level of cleric. Pure potions can also lifekeep, and neutralize curse. Buy them in the back room of the cleric shop (they are called impure potions in Icemule for some reason) or look for them in player shops from alchemists. They’re the Swiss Army Knife (TM) for consumables! |
