Genshin Impact‘s Alchemical Ascension event drops you into the role of a potion shop keeper. To ensure maximum profits, you have to make potions according to trending market news, so here’s how to make each potion in the Genshin Impact potion event.
How to Make each Potion in Genshin Impact‘s Alchemical Ascension
To concoct a potion, all you need to do is throw in a bunch of ingredients. The resulting potion is determined by the type of ingredient efficacies in the mixture. Alchemical Ascension’s concocting system is a bit different from typical crafting systems in the sense that the recipes aren’t set in stone, as each ingredient adds a different amount of efficacy.
For example, if you wanted to brew a constitution potion, you would use mostly ingredients with the constitution efficacy. Each ingredient three efficacies: one primary efficacy, and two minor ones. Keep an eye on how the efficacy charge changes as you add ingredients.
Speaking of the efficacy chart, it also shows you what grade your potion is going to be. The higher grade a potion, the more profitable it is. To make higher grade potions, add better ingredients that pass over the thresholds of the chart.
In the screenshot above, this potion is going to be an intermediate potion, because it’s passing over the first threshold of the chart. There are four potion grades: beginner, intermediate, advanced, and finally special.
In the event your potion has two major ingredients—that is, you have two dominant efficacies that are also within the same grade—the resulting potion will be a combination potion. For example, a strength and constitution potion would have a lot of Special Calla Lily and Special Jueyun Chili in it.
That just about sums up the core concepts of concocting potions in Alchemical Ascension. For further reading, be sure to check out our Alchemical Ascension tips and tricks guide for more details. Now, let’s start concocting!
