Regenerate Health Potions

Regeneration potions speed up natural health recovery by 50 to 100 percent for five minutes, a steady safety net between and during fights.

Instead of a sudden burst of healing, Regeneration potions make your health refill faster on its own. The effect lasts a full 300 seconds, so a single dose can carry you through several encounters in a dungeon. They suit melee fighters who take steady chip damage, characters without healing spells, and anyone who would rather not stop and wait for their health bar to creep back up after every skirmish.

Where to find them

Regeneration potions are sold by vendors who carry potions and turn up as loot. They are leveled, so the stronger tiers become available as you level up.

Brewing your own

Using the Alchemy skill, combine any two of the ingredients below to brew a Regenerate Health potion:

Combine a third ingredient that shares another effect with one of the pair to add a second effect to the same bottle.

Tips

  • Drink one before entering a dungeon rather than mid-fight; the long duration rewards early use.
  • For emergencies, keep a few Restore Health potions too, since regeneration works slowly.

Where to find it
