Quick Answer: Which Potion When?
Holy Frostbrew serves as your core health recovery and elemental damage buffer. Frost Vials and Oil Flasks provide targeted offensive coatings for ranged and melee weapons respectively. Vampire Herb Salad delivers long-lasting stamina restoration for extended boss duels.
| Potion | Role | Stacks With | Cost per Fight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Holy Frostbrew | Heal + short Frost coating | Everything | 3-5 (15g each) |
| Frost Vial | Bow Ice damage coating | Holy Frostbrew heal | 2-3 (10g each) |
| Oil Flask | Sword Fire damage coating | Holy Frostbrew heal | 1-2 (10g each) |
| Vampire Herb Salad | Stamina regeneration | Everything | 1 (crafted) |
Weapon coatings overwrite one another — applying a Frost Vial over an active Oil Flask will replace the fire effect.
