New Healing & Clarity Potions Coming Soon

Here is one line from an upcoming patch message:

Distillate Potions that can be purchased from merchants and made by Alchemists have been updated to include effects up to level 80. The Distillate of Alacrity is the exception, and will receive no further upgrades past the level 65 version. Additionally two new distillates have been found, one that acts like the spiritualism spell line and one that acts like the regeneration spell line.

This basically means that the Distillate of Divine healing, Distillate of Celestial Healing, Distillate of Health and Distillate of Clarity line of potions is being extended to level 80.

Additionally we are adding a Distillate of Replenishment and Distillate of Spirituality line. Distillate of Replenishment gives health regeneration, and Distillate of Spirituality gives both health and mana regeneration. These potions are made so that they do NOT stack with the equivalent spells from an actual player. Distillate of Clarity will not stack with enchanter spells, Distillate of Replenishment will not stack with regeneration spells, and Distillate of Spirituality will not stack with the spirituality spell line. These potions will continue to cross stack though like the spells they emulate, and with player spells just like the spells they emulate. So you could get enchanter clarity, and still use the Distillate of Spirituality and Distillate of Replenishment, but not the Distillate of Clarity. The same simple logic goes with the others. You can get a Beastlord Spirituality spell and use the Distillate of Clarity and Distillate of Replenishment but not then Distillate of Spirituality.

These will also continue to be available on NPC's, AND can be made by alchemist players. The "Beyond Jonas" book has been updated to include the appropriate instructions for alchemists.
