Editing Tonics

'''Tonics''' are the brews, elixirs and salves made with the [[Alchemy]] skill. They come in several kinds: '''potions''' that grant a timed buff when drunk, '''tranquilizers''' that pacify wild creatures for Taming, and '''salves''' that instantly heal injured tames. Buffs run on a timer and stack with your [[Equipment]] and [[Food]].

== How tonics work ==

* A '''potion''' grants one buff for a set '''duration''' when drunk — a faster skill, doubled yields, more XP, or extra combat stats.
* Buffs tick down in real time and stack with gear and food, letting you stack a skill-speed tonic with a double-yield brew, for example.
* '''Tranquilizers''' are consumed to calm and capture wild [[Creatures]] during Taming — stronger tranqs handle bigger, tougher beasts.
* '''Salves''' are consumed to heal creatures injured on Expeditions.
* Like all items, tonics can be sold for [[Amber]].

== Skill-speed tonics ==

Each of these speeds up one [[Skills|skill]] for its duration.

== Tranquilizers ==

Tranquilizers are the staple of Taming: they settle wild [[Creatures]] into a docile state so you can capture them. They come in escalating strengths — the '''Calming Tonic''' soothes only small creatures, the '''Tranquilizer Brew''' is the everyday taming tool, and the '''Potent Tranquilizer''' is strong enough to gentle the largest beasts.

== Salves ==

Salves instantly mend creatures wounded on Expeditions, with no timer:

* '''Fern Poultice''' — heals one injured creature.
* '''Primal Balm''' — heals every injured creature in the stable at once.
