Empty Potion Bottles??!

Post by Dark Rook »

what is the purpose of these things..apparantly you can get these things made for you if you have the planar sphere stronghold. Can you perhaps mix several potions into em to make a super elixir, or do they have some other purpose?

As far as i know, they have no purpose.

It is like the worn-out boots you get in the game, it does not do much. But then again, we might not have crack the code yet (refer to the Pantaloon Enigma). :)

I believe this belongs in this topic as well, hehehe. What about that broken weapon you get in Irenicus' dungeon?

AFAIK, their purpose is to remind you that you have not been
fast enough in killing your enemies!!
In the guarded compound I used to find a lot of them, but the
last time I was fast and found them FULL!
:D

I know about the ones in the gaurded compound...but in the planar sphere these things are supposed to be created for you...surely they must have *some* purpose

I remember picking up some empty potion bottles somewhere else in the game in Chapter 2 (not the Planar Sphere). I stashed them in a chest for the time being till I figure out what purpose they serve.

And what can be said about the jugs of beer you find in different places (apart from the use in the miniquest at Umar Hills)?
