Where can I buy mental energy reserve potions?

[thimble]

I need two to upgrade my plasma rifle. I can't craft it because I'm not a cleric.
Ferdinand has only strong and small. Martha has small. I can't find Siegfried, who might have it. Is it possible to combine small potions to make the medium?

You find lots of all sorts of energy reserve potions looting in Ignadon. I think the armour master in Tavar and the bar tender in Abessa city sell them also, and Fenk probably - although I never trade with him.

Thanks, Ill check those out.

I also found some in Edan, in the passage to Tavar, and in the ruins and camps of the reavers.

No luck at the Fort or Domed City. I don'y know who Fenk is or where located. What is "the passage to Tavar? I do know of one reaver camp, I'll check there. Haven't found Siegfried in Hort yet.

Are you a cleric? Or factionless?

If you are a cleric, you can buy mental reserves from nearly all the vendors in the Hort.

If you are factionless or you picked a faction other than clerics, you can still buy off of Siegfriend or Xander. Siefried sells small reserves and Xander sells regular mental reserves. Xander is the gate guard to the Hort. If you enter the Hort, open your map. You can find Siegfried inside a building to the upper left of map (of Hort).

If you can buy off of Cleric traders, you can buy tons of small (and maybe regular) mental reserves from Balder, the head suggestor. He's inside the building right across from the Cathedral.

If you haven't done so, you should buy the Chemistry perk. With this, you can combine small mental energy reserves into mental reserves and up. You can also craft small mental energy reserves. I forget what the ingredients are. Something like electronic scraps and something else. If you want to see what you can craft, just visit a work bench. The easiest workbench to reach is located at the Berserker Blacksmith in Edan. There's a teleporter right next to it. You can review what you can craft, and what the ingredients are, even without the chemistry perk.

If Hort is a problem, you can try checking Fenx in Dome city. Fenx is located in the back section of the dome. Run past where the berserker houses are.

Also, you can try checking the roaming Cleric trader outside the domed city. Teleport to the Domed City. Turn around and take the road to the left and follow it. You should eventually run into either Rainer or the roaming trader. You can find both of them on that road.

Thanks for the tips . I'll try to find Siegfried again with that info. Xander won't talk to me, probably because I'm not a cleric. I'll look for Fenx again with your tips. Also, good to know there is a way to combine small potions to make larger ones. I've spent hours on this. It shouldn't be that hard to make a simple upgrade.

The passage to Tavar ist a quest location. The entrance is south of the liquor factory or northeast of the lake where you can harvest roots for Born. Being Outlaw, you have to fight with Outlaws there, being Berserker, you fight with Galar, a Berserker warrior. It's one of the warrior/enforcer missions. Don't go there before you got the quest.

Neither Siegfried or Fenk had the medium potion. I can't combine potions if I am not a cleric. I'll try Reaver camps or the roaming trader. After that it is just search for loot.

[thimble]

I found one potion. After finding none at two big Reaver camps, I discovered one on Berserker Island. I'll try looking around Ignadon. I need one more.

[Halcyform]

You can enter the Hort, right? If so, not sure why Xander won't talk to you.

If you can't enter the Hort, I'd recommend following the road I mentioned and find Rainer. Rainer is the easy way to enter the Hort. During the conversation, just lie to him and you'll abducted and taken to the Hort. Another way to enter the Hort is to help out the trader outside the Hort and he'll eventually give you a trader permit. The last way to enter is to work towards joining the Clerics.

Xander does sell the regular mental reserve potions. Just need to figure out why he won't interact with you.

I can enter the Hort. I had the crates at one time, but don't know what happened to them. Could I have traded them to a guy in the Fort? Maybe I gave them to the guy outside the Hort. I have been exploring Ignadon and have reached Crater and the Castle. It is such a huge place that you would think there might be a potion someplace. I did find two small potions on dead bodies. I'll teleport to Hort tomorrow and see if I can figure it out.

Pretty sure there are two separate story paths that involve the crates. I think they both deal with the trader outside, but differ in the road taken. I think one path is Cleric reputation grind for wanting to join (sent by lunch lady) and the other is helping the trader directly to get a trader's permit.

During a Berserker playthrough, I've been locked out of most of the Cleric vendors but can still trade with Xander and Siegfried. Maybe you need to explore for more quests in Ignadon. Check with Reinholdt and Brader. The chem smuggling quest might open up Xander for you. If you decide to defy Xander's request, you'll need a few thousand Elexit to bribe him with or a high enough charisma to undo the negative consequences.

No luck so far. I got the crates, but when I offered them to Levin, he mentioned shards, or a trading permit, but my reply choices only included shards or some of the supplies. Neither Reinholdt or Brader will talk to me. I picked up several more small potions at the Castle, but no medium. This is so frustrating when all I need is one potion.

Well, I just found another one near Geron: there is a steel and cable bridge near his house, where you can go in the direction of the raptors. Turning left once you crossed, there is a fire. There I found one.
