Cauldron Recipes

[ajqtrz]

This is not a discussion of the Cauldron but of what recipes work. By listing some and testing them across multiple users we may actually figure out how to get what we want.

Here's one I've made.

Best General Mayhem Recipe

4 Mana Shell,
4 Flying Iris,
4 Ear Truffle
4 Cottoncloud Bud

Enter in any order, the results are the same.

Result: General Mayhem to 34% at a cost of 3682 witch points.

Maximum "serving" 100% and 50% critical, use 25 (6 of each ingredient plus one of any of them) 55.9%

Am I really out to lunch? I thought the recipes reset every week?

If not, it would be great to collect recipes.

I don't think the recipes reset every week.

I haven't written anything down. It takes very little to experiment with the ingredients which induce the effect I am after. And I don't plan to use more than one piece of each. If I am lucky, a 10% effect will suffice.

I have tried this one for couple of weeks now & it totally works for me. Ty ))

I have two recipes for Trader's Basic Plea - increase Tier 1 production:
54% nut, 23% iris, 23% leaf
(for example: 7 nut, 3 iris, 3 leaf)
OR
8% shells, 24% eggs, 36% blossoms, 32% buds
(for example: 2 Shells, 6 Eggs, 9 Blossoms, 8 Buds)

and one for Magical Tax Increase - increase coin production:
52% nut, 48% iris
(for example: 13 Beetlenut, 12 Iris)

These two could be useful for Fellowship Adventures.

Could you post how many times to use each ingredient instead of the percentages, Please! For us less mathematical geniuses!

 

[David Dragonsage]

Yes of course. Edited to include examples.

Two of these recipes include a total of 25 ingredients, but that is how I mixed them. I would likely half those values in the future because I have become more conscious of using witch points.

At this point I'm trying to reserve witch points for research, as much as possible. So I just make a token potion with just one ingredient so that I can move on to doing more research.

Yes that is what I am doing too, I only add 1 ingredient once because I don't care as much about the success rate of brewing a very low level Potion and use the rest of the Witch Points for Studying.

Recipes do not reset, but the four ingredients that cost diamonds rotate each week, so a recipe one week that you can do for just witch points, will eventually require diamonds, if you want to use it every single week.

 

[David Dragonsage]

Interesting - thanks for that additional detail!

I thought the ear truffle and the cotton cloud bud made the Mercenary Camp Potion not the Barracks Potion, am I missing somethins about the combinations?

Each resource can effect multiple recipes. This recipe I give makes the greatest impact on General Mayhem potion. They may also impact Mercenary Camp potions too

Thanks good to know!

Would you have a recipe for the Damage boost to the Training grounds Troops. I can't look to see the name the witch is walking around the forest right now!

For monster's mayhem this week, you can try something like this with non-diamond ingredients:

5 part beetlenut
5 part nightshade blossom
5 part bitterhair leaf
4 part mocking tongues
2 part eye sprouts

6429 wp used, 91.7% success chance, 50.2% monster mayhem trigger for me.

The mix will probably work if less or more ingredients are mixed in roughly similar proportion, but I can't say for sure

The potion success rate can be made higher, but then the monster mayhem trigger will be lower.

I'm still trying to figure out ingredient interaction, and I'm not sure if people with different numbers of diplomas and available effects per ingredient are going to get widely different results, or can still use some kind of template. Hopefully there will be some commonality

Thank You that's very helpful!

Moved to Consolidated Verification Recipes, later in this thread.

Karvest, in the Beta forum, has developed a VBA driven spreadsheet that's sorted by Type of Effect (rather than Type of Ingredient,) and there's some heavy duty math.

 

[David Dragonsage]

This is fascinating Katwick!

So how do the numbers on the x-axis translate into ingredient names?
