Potion Craft – Potions for Customers

A compendium of the desired potion effects for each customer.

Potion Effects Guide

Introduction

You can use ‘ctrl-f’ and enter the start of the dialogue to find a particular entry. Working out what potions to give your customers can be a lot of fun. For someone as obsessive as me, it can also be very frustrating trying to work out every valid option for every customer request before they storm out of your shop. I made this guide to both help others work out this charming game, and hopefully have others point out the things I’ve missed.

The format used in this guide looks something like this example.

Request Dialogue

  • I have a chest, but the key to it is… I lost it. I need to pick the lock somehow.

Valid Effects

  • Acid (III)
  • Explosion (II)

-20 Rep

Passing over the obvious, the bracketed numerals in Valid Effects are showing the most valuable valid potion for the request. They are only there if there is more than one effect listed. Rarely, the valid effects do not combine nicely, so do take a look before you go potion-making in case you end up with nasty side effects. (Who would make such a silly mistake anyway, cough cough)

Reputation loss is listed if the request gives it. If it is not listed, it can be assumed that it gives +3 Reputation.

All requests seem to give either +2 or +3 Popularity, but these are not listed to avoid further bloating this guide.

Happy potion crafting!
