Trivia

  • Potions offering buffs are considered power rank 35. This means they can be removed by effect removal abilities at power rank 35 and up.
  • By placing multiple potions in your hot bar it is possible to have more than one potion activate at once. Simply press the corresponding keybinds to activate the potions simultaneously and both potions will apply at once. This will only work for potions of different types (e.g., you cannot use two Sublimation of Garlic at once). Using the same technique, you can sneak and apply a potion at the same time (buff potions only). Doing so will give the appearance of a burnt potion until the cast time has elapsed.

History

Alchemy was added to Shadowbane on April 19th, 2005 and later expanded on September 27th, 2006. The addition of alchemy was meant to combat "Buff Bot Syndrome", a problem that occurred with the advent of unlimited free accounts.

You can hire your very own alchemist! Buy a contract on a rank 2 steward and put him to work in your local magic shop. You can order him to brew one of six potions -- three healing potions at rank 1, and three buff potions at rank 4. If you're cheap and lucky, you can also find potions on monster corpses.
