Craft Healing Potions?

[grayfox]

Is there any way to craft a healing potion? I'm specifically asking about the red potions called "Healing Potion" that restores 50 health that can be purchased and found as loot. I haven't been able to find a crafting recipe for it.

No, there doesn't appear to be a recipe for it. I guess they had only so many slots for potions (with the 4 essence combo system, you only have so many combos) and this one just didn't fit in or feel unique enough.

I would buy this if there weren't recipes that broke this model. For instance, the Alchemist has unique/specific crafting recipes like potent water and two wheat items creating Finian Beer. It's possible that there's recipes like that people haven't found yet, but I wouldn't know.

Probably the most unique one is the Love Potion (Forgebrew + Rations + Meat), and that one comes from Lore Grimm's questline (you can craft it normally, but the hero tells you the recipe).

But you can make draught of the giant which is unless I'm missing something considerably better?

The tip with draught of the giant was good. THX Robineus!
Could'nt find a recipe for healing potion too.

Well for some reason the craftable healing potion is called a dancers potion no idea why they did that.

My guess is a simpler one: being able to craft healing potions would break balance too much. Rations are already quite powerful, and all the buff potions too, having extremely powerful healing as well would make things much too easy.

I suppose, but there are just so many ways to get around that, camping militia outside the first town in goldenfields, each week it often sells them for cheap, building alchemy labs in the human barracks 6 free potions a week will often net some healing potions, camping militia outside the various alchemy labs in the world same thing each week, the game is made too easy on multiple levels in so many ways it's just an odd choice to do it in this one specific way here.
