Alchemy is a crafting discipline that incorporates the use of herbs and animal parts to create potions and various other items. Potions can be used to raise your ketucari's statistics either temporarily or permanently. Crafting requires a ketucari to be levelled up in order to access certain recipes. See how to do so here.

Crafting requests must be made via our website. Visit the Site Guide and see crafting under the Prompt Submission section to see how.

Creating Custom Potions

To craft a custom potion, you will need the following components:

1. A flask (available at the Marketplace and via crafting)

2. At least 5 of any herb or animal part that provides a stat boost. You can find which herbs/animal parts provide which boosts in the Ingredient Codex.

General Guidelines

• Potions may have a maximum of THREE different stat-boosting attributes.
• Armor potions and Nobility potions can not be mixed with any other stat.
• All potions provide only temporary boosts. If you wish to make a potion with a permanent boost, you will need to purchase a binding reagent from the Marketplace.
• For ARMOR potions, potions that do not have a binding reagent will merely act as a regenerative potion, restoring lost armor. Armor potions with a binding reagent will add a permanent boost onto your max armor.
• Potions containing Medium or Harsh tier ingredients require an Advanced Alchemist - These Ingredients Include: Medium Chunk of Meat, Large chunk of Meat, Large Claw, Venom Extract, Tough Horn, Vial Of Blood, Sharp Fang, Hardened Scale, Asher, Ykalu, Banukel, Whitsul, Seit, Kelam, Dragon's Claw, Dramos, Morban, Irakel, Nutili, and Danios
• Potions containin legendary tier ingredients require a Legendary Alchemist - These Ingredients include: Demonic Essence, Holy Essence, Divine Bone, Ambrosia, Dynyr, Fotur, Rugha, Alear, Yendi, Nysine

Submitting your crafting request

1. Your first step will be to decide which stat-boosting attributes you would like in your potion. You can farm the necessary materials via Adventuring and Battles. Be sure to purchase/craft a flask and, if you'd like to make your stat boosts permanent, a binding reagent.

2. Once you have all the materials together, submit your crafting request via our website (the link on how to do this can be found above).
There is no failure chance with crafting, so as soon as your request is processed the materials will be removed from your bank account and exchanged for the potion.

Potions that are not permanent may be applied to adventures as bonuses or used in battle turns in place of a skill (such as regenerating armor with an armor potion).

Transmutation

Transmutation allows you to convert items from one tier to the tier above it. For example, converting a beginner zone item to a medium zone item. You may only transmute ore to ore, herbs to herbs, and animal parts to animal parts. The stat attribute of the item you are trasmuting must match the stat of the item you're turning it into EXCEPT for artifact pieces, which may be assorted. Transmuting herbs to ore, ore to animal parts, etc. is not allowed. High quality materials may only be transmuted into legendary materials by a ketucari who has .
You can also convert backwards at the same rate of 1 higher tier = 4 lower tier and the same gold cost!
Transmutation requires an Advanced or Legendary Alchemist, depending on ingredients.

A quick guide to transmutation can be found here!
