Alchemy is the science of making potions, and the conversion and processing of base materials for use with not only making potions, but for other crafts as well.

Most alchemisty is performed by using an alembic on an alchemists' bench. There are 3 other specialst tools however: the mortar and pestle the sieve and the blackrock saw: all of which are used to process monster parts (explained below).

Ingredients

Reagants

• Sulphurous Ash
• Blood Moss
• Black Pearl - rarely 'caught' when fishing
• Mandrake Root - search a swamp at any midnight
• Nightshade - search the forests at at midnight on the new moon

Monster Parts

Monster parts are needed for any advanced Alchemy. Raw monster parts are not suitable - they generally need processing first.

Use (u) an Alembic at an Alchemist's bench to convert the following items.

• Fang + Vial = Snake's Venom
• Brain + Jar = Preserved Brain
• Eye + Jar = Preserved Eye
• Ooze + Jar = Preserved Ooze
• Heart + Vial = Essence of Rage

The following items require specialist tools, as stated. The vials, jars, blackrock saw, and sieve you will need can all be created by an experienced Tinker.

• Use Blackrock Saw on Dragon Hide = 3 x Dragon Scales
• Use Mortar and Pestle on Horn = Shadow Dust
• Use Mortar and Pestle on Carapace = Bug Dust
• Use Sieve on Diseased Bandage = Spores

What monsters drop what parts

Occasionally a monster will drop a monster part. Specific ingredients come from particular monsters, namely:

• Dragon Hide from Red Dragon
• Fang from Snake
• Horn from Shadow Orc
• Brain from Gazer
• Eye from Basilisk
• Ooze from Slime
• Carapace from Insect Swarm
• Diseased Bandage from Mummy
• Heart from Minotaur Chief
