Unknown Concoctions [Pharmacist Lv56]

[Icyferno]

Inside the concrete jungle of buildings, you stop in front of a small building. Dwarfed by its neighbors, it was nothing more than just another abandoned building in a maze of abandoned buildings. As you entered the building, you notice that the building was used recently; someone had clearly tried to clean up the place, although the person did a poor job of it.

Straight ahead, there was a old wooden counter just in front of a staircase. A few books and some papers were tucked to one side. A single sheet of paper was placed in front with a quill and an ink bottle, which contained a note saying that this was not an official shop and hence had no opening hours, although you were welcome to leave your name behind so that the Pharmacist running the place could get back to you... someday.

Hey folks, welcome to my shop!

Payment
All services come with a price. What, did you expect me to work on the claims for free?

Current crafter's fee is set at 5%.

Too high for you? Perhaps you could offer to trade to me something I might want. Depending on the item, I will buy them at 75% to 100% of their value in gold. You may even see a discount on the crafter's fee.

Any character with a total AP of less than 100 (including previous classes, if class change scroll was used) across all classes is exempted from crafting fees.

Research queue:
Potion of mana channeling - Increases the potency of the next spell cast by the user and slightly reduces mana cost. Probably mage-unique potion.

[Silly volunteered Sileas is missing]Potion of elemental resistance - Imo, this should've been done long ago. Increases resistance of specific element greatly and slightly increases weakness to opposing element. Effect erodes over the next few posts. It could be specific to each element although I assume a general one will be weaker.

[Next project]Stoneskin potion - Increases the physical defense of the user. Also increases damage dealt by monks because their skin gets harder.

Potion of lurking - Slightly reduces aggro from enemy mobs. Also grants minor invisibility for a few seconds until an action is taken.

(Suggested by Muffincake) Fire bomb - A small incendiary weapon inspired by the Greek Fire. The bomb takes the form of a ceramic sphere with a flame symbol on one side and contains fuel made from combining the properties of several types of fuel existing in Elder Tales. It is primed when the user sends mana through the bomb and will explode in a few seconds, dealing Fire damage to those nearby and setting them on fire for a few seconds.

(Alchemist?) Electric bomb - A ceramic sphere with a lightning symbol on it. It is primed when the users sends mana through the bomb and will explode in a few seconds, unleashing several arcs of lightning towards its surroundings and dealing Electric damage with a chance of paralysis.

(Alchemist?) Flash bomb - A nondescript ceramic sphere. When mana is sent through the sphere, it glows for a few seconds, then releases a bright flash of light, dealing Light damage with a chance of blinding those nearby.

[Transferred to Sileas to do Sileas is missing]Perfume - A bottle containing scented oils distilled from various flowers, herbs and spices. It makes the user more attractive to those around them, temporarily boosting the level of any Courtesan using it. The Pharmacist that crafts this item may rewrite its name and description.

Reserved.

[Sark]

A bedraggled dwarf bursts into the store. His face is torn, his clothes stiff with dirt. "I need potions!". Silence greets his dramatic entrance, and after a moment of foolish silence the samurai picks up pen and paper and begins to write.

It was at that moment that a piece of paper, which was previously hidden from view, floated down from a messy stack of sheets. Further examination revealed that it was a list of price! Unfortunately, there was no calculator hanging around, but at least there was plenty of spare paper around to help you avoid mental sums.

Healings:
Medicinal Formula x 5 (Level 50)
- 5 x item level x 5 = 1250 gold
Burn Cream x1 (Level 30)
- You mean, Anti-Burn Cream, right? Who would want to Burn themselves on purpose?
- 5 x item level x 1 = 150 gold
Miasma-Cleansing Spray x1 (Level 30)
- 5 x item level x 1 = 150 gold
Anti-Stun Tablets x1 (Level 30)
- 5 x item level x 1 = 150 gold

Helpings:
Repel Essence x2 (Level 50)
 - 5 x item level x 2 = 500 gold
Potion of Nighteye x 2 (Level 50)
 - 5 x item level x 2 = 500 gold
Smoke Grenade x2 (Level 50)
 - 5 x item level x 2 = 500 gold
Minor Potion of Luck x1 (Level 50)
 - 5 x item level x 1 = 250 gold
Stat Booster x1 (Level 50)
 - 10 x item level x 1 = 500 gold

Using your fingers (and some sheets of paper), you quickly discover the total to be 3950 gold! You shiver slightly at the cost, before remembering that there should be a 50% off everything, right? So the cost would be 1975 gold, right?

But then you remember the horror of the Great Economic Downturn. Once upon a time, there was money aplenty, and wealthy Adventurers were once able to pledge their aid to others. Now, they are like the rest, struggling to make ends meet. Taking in account the crafting fee, and after a difficult calculation involving the multiple 1.05, you calculate the cost to be 2073 gold.

You could have sworn the numbers were slightly different earlier, though. Strange.
