Calculator:Herblore/Unfinished potions
Unfinished potion calculators
How do these calculators work. First of all we have the normal process of Herblore:
- Obtain a grimy herb. Buy, find, or farm.
- Clean it. A specific level is required. By cleaning, experience is gained and the clean version of the herb is obtained.
- Add to a vial of water or coconut milk. A specific level is required to add a clean herb into a vial of water or coconut milk. An unfinished potion is obtained.
- Add secondary ingredient. When this ingredient is added, experience is gained, much more than the experience gained for cleaning the herb.
- Sell the finished potion.
- Alternatively, potions can be mixed with caviar or roe to gain barbarian mix potions. Experience is gained by mixing caviar or roe.
Here we calculate the profit/cost for 3 cases:
- Buy a grimy herb, clean it, make a unfinished potion, and sell it.
- Buy a clean herb, make an unfinished potion, and sell it.
- Buy an unfinished potion, add the secondary ingredient, and sell it.
Scroll of Cleansing
- The Scroll of Cleansing is a Dungeoneering Reward that costs 20,000 tokens
- It has a 1 in 10(10%, though it appears to work around 11% of the time) chance of saving a secondary when mixing potions. This effect may save the herb you are mixing with a vial of water, or the secondary ingredient you are adding to an unfinished potion
- It also has a 1 in 8 chance of mixing a potion quicker
Assumptions
- All calculations are based on the 3-dose potion prices using live data from the Grand Exchange Market Watch.
- For potions based on a vial of coconut milk, the process cannot be split. This is because the unfinished potion with coconut milk is not tradeable.
