[Game Play] A Simple Guide to Elixirs for End Game PVE (2024)

By Heyemi

Why use Elixirs instead of Draughts?

This question is usually asked by many, and the simple answer to that is better survivability, more flexibility for perfumes and crystalsand more damage.

When to use Elixirs?

This is usually up to the player when they think its wise to start using elixirs. But the basic idea of when its worth using it would be in end game spots where it requires 309+ap and 401+dp, this is cause the ap brackets after 309 gives very little ap and there is no more bracket after 401dp.

How do I get Elixirs?

The only 2 ways to get Elixirs would be to Craft them from the Alchemy Lifeskill or to Place an order for them on the Central Market.

Which Elixirs do I use? Party? Blue? Green?

Usually Blue Party Elxirs are the default to use. Blue Elixirs have a higher stat buff over Green. Then why Party over Normal? Cause when making them into party, you have a very high chance of proccing 2 Party Elixirs from the process. On average, you would get 26mins with of Blue Party Elixirs from 1 set which is 16mis of Blue Elixirs.

PVE Elixirs

Elixir of Lethal Destruction

Extra All Special Attack Damage +2%

- This Elixir isn't very important in a simple Elixir Rotation and can be left out to save cost if you aren't planning on fully min-maxing the grind

Elixir of Strong Shock

Critical Hit +3

- Allows you to hit max Critical Level without the need of crystals for it, opening extra slots for other uses

- Since some people use Spirit Perfume Elixirs to hit max Critical Level, this also opens up the perfume slot to either use Deep Sea or Courage for more damage

Strong Griffon's Elixir

Extra Damage to Kamasylvian Monsters +17

- Gives you more Kamasyvian Species Damage and is useful when grinding mobs of that species (Dehkia Thornwood, Oluns, Crypt of Resting Thoughts. However isn't needed unless min-maxing due to its difficulty to obtain

Elixir of Overwhelming Endurance

Max Stamina +150

- Recomended use at Olun's Valley since u would need to travel a long distance pack to pack and may need the extra stamina

Elixir of Brutal Carnage

Down Attack Damage +15%

- Recomended use at Crypt of Resting Thoughts and Dehkia Thornwood since the mobs there can be knocked down and have down attack dealt to them.
