Potion Flasks

Optimise your inventory by buying or creating the new potion flasks. These items act as larger vials for your potions, allowing you to store six doses rather than the conventional four – perfect when conquering bosses.

Should you wish to create the vials yourself, you’ll need a brand new resource called red sandstone. With a Mining level of 81, you can mine the non-tradable red sandstone north of Oo’glog (south of the Feldip Hills). You can mine a maximum of 50 red sandstone per day.

Take the sandstone to Oo’glog (after completing the As a First Resort quest), to Rutmir’s robust glassmaking machine. You can use the machine to fire the red sandstone into robust glass, which can be blown into potion flasks using a glassblowing pipe, as long as you have a Crafting level of 89. Decant potions into the flasks and feel thoroughly prepared for long combat trips (flasks will shatter once emptied of their contents).

Completed flasks are tradable. We expect entrepreneurs with the Crafting and Mining levels to make a healthy profit, should they choose to sell them on.

Jad is looking more and more endangered

Why is it always the "In other news" updates that seem to be the best. Love the dungeoneering related one, and the overload bob storage one. Also, does anyone know which monsters got their combats changed?

Why is it always the "In other news" updates that seem to be the best. Love the dungeoneering related one, and the overload bob storage one. Also, does anyone know which monsters got their combats changed?

There was a developer blog about it a while back. They want a monster's combat level to be based on how dangerous it is rather than its base stats. I haven't seen any yet, but if I was looking for some I would check slayer monsters, dragons, bosses, and stuff like that.

The other stuff all sounds great, especially the new elite fremennik rewards.

I think this is a nice update to start off the month. I mean, we still have the Tz-Haar rework coming later with a big chunk of new content, so you can't expect one month to have huge updates each week.

I really like this gathering for yourself and having a limit on how much you can gather thing. Keeps it rewarding for high leveled players. Long as they dont nerf it.

Decent update. Now all I need is the proper crafting level!
