# Brewing & Cooking

#### **🧪 Brewing Potions (Alchemist)**

Visit the Alchemist in the village to brew potions.

**What potions do:**

* Restore HP, Mana, or Stamina instantly
* Grant temporary buffs (damage, defense, resistance, etc.)
* Provide utility effects

**Key feature:**

* **Multiple potion effects can be active simultaneously**
* Example: Use a health potion + damage buff potion + defense buff potion all at once

**Requirements:**

* Herbs and materials gathered from the world
* Meet minimum player level for each recipe
* Some recipes require special unlocks

**Potion tiers:**

* Higher-tier potions provide stronger effects
* F2P players limited to Common tier
* Guild Pass unlocks all tiers

#### **🍳 Cooking Food (Player House)**

Use the kitchen in your Player House to cook food.

**What food does:**

* Grants temporary stat buffs
* Lasts **15 minutes** (one full day/night cycle)

**Key limitation:**

* **Only ONE food buff can be active at a time**
* Eating new food replaces the previous buff

**Strategy:**

* Cook food before heading out for difficult content
* Choose food based on your immediate needs (HP boost, damage increase, etc.)
* 15-minute duration is generous—use it liberally

**Requirements:**

* Ingredients from gathering, merchants, or drops
* Meet minimum player level for recipes
* Some hidden recipes require discovery

***

#### **Recipe System**

Both brewing and cooking recipes:

* Unlock at specific player levels
* May have additional special requirements
