Jump to navigation Jump to search

Herblore is a production skill that that allows players to make their own potions from herbs and various secondary ingredients. Potions created with the Herblore skill have a variety of effects. Most potions can be drunk to give players temporary skill boosts or other status effects, such as anti-fire or anti-poison. Effects of temporary skill boosts degrade at roughly 1 level per minute until they have entirely worn off.

Potions

Potions act as a temporary skill boost. Once you add a herb to a vial of water, you get an unfinished potion; then, you must add a secondary ingredient to finish the potion completely. A newly finished vial of potion contains three (3) doses of the potion.
