Alchemical Ascension Event - Cycle Guide
| Things To Do Per Cycle | |
|---|---|
| 1 | Create your Potion for the cycle |
| 2 | Plant & collect harvests |
| 3 | Buy upgrades |
| 4 | Stock Potions |
Create Your Potion Per Cycle
Each cycle, you can concoct one potion that you can add to your inventory. You can do this at the Cauldron within the event's area.
Concoct Potions By Arranging Ingredients Within The Area
In order to create Potions, you will have to arrange and fill the squared area with ingredients. Once you get to 100% Tuning Rate, you can create a Potion.
Ingredients Determine The Type & Special Characteristics
Each ingredient has their own effects and this will determine what type of potion will be made and what special characteristics they will have. The more of an ingredient you put, the more likely that the potion will adapt its traits.
Aim To Get As High Of A Tuning Rate As Possible
Although you can create a potion at 100%, you can go beyond that! If you full fill in your Tuning Rate, you will get a bonus in your Alchemical experience, which will help unlock new ingredients!
Choose A Special Bottle Instead Of The Regular One
Special Bottles also give an experience bonus so make sure to use one whenever you make new potions!
Plant & Collect Harvests
At the Cultivation area, you can plant and grow the ingredients that you will need for your potions. The type of plants you can grow are dependent on your Alchemical level as well as the amount of plant beds you have.
How To Cultivate Ingredients For PotionsPlant Ingredients That You Are Low On Supply For
When choosing what to plant, it's best to look at your current inventory of ingredients. Plant whichever ingredient you're running low on so you won't end up with none of them when you need them.
Plants Require Time To Grow
Each plant requires a specific time to grow. This is determined in cycles. Some plants require only 1 cycle to be completed to grow, while others require more.
Buy Upgrades From Freda
Freda will sell different upgrades, including Cultivation area expansion and Cauldron upgrades. The money you'll need to buy from her will come from what you earn from selling Potions.
Purchase At Least One Special Bottle First
Purchase at least one Special Bottle to be able to use as you try to earn more money. Special Bottles will give additional experience so it's good to always make use of one.
Purchase All Of Expansion For The Cultivation Area
Make it your goal to purchase all of the Cultivation area expansion as quickly as you can. Since your potions require ingredients, having an expanding Cultivation area is needed to have as much as possible.
Stock Potions To Sell
Make sure to check what Potions you have up for sale before you end each cycle. You can only put 3 on sale at a time so choose wisely!
Check Market News To Know What To Sell
Market News will determine what potions will sell. Make sure to check them at the start of each cycle to know what to sell and what potions to make.
Check The Potion's Type & Special Characteristics
Don't just put out Potions to sell. check their Type and Special Characteristics to see if they will satisfy the Market News.
Combo Potions Sell Less, But Can Hit Higher Demand
Combo Potions are dual type potions. Since they will be able to hit multiple demands, they're great to have. However, they do sell less than single type Potions.
