The Wishing Potion

The Wishing Potion is a repeatable, solo quest in Lineage 2 C5: Oath of Blood for characters of level 30+. It starts with Matild in Sea of Spores.

Alchemist Matild has long tried to create a mysterious potion. She recently discovered a book containing the recipe and asks you to bring it to her. She gives you a book of alchemy and gives you directions to the secret keeper tree.

The Wishing Potion walkthrough

The Wishing Potion is the quest for making wishes come true: it is how you get the Amulet: Pa'agrio's Heart amulet, Necklace of Grace and the key materials for the Demon's set (Demon's Tunic Fabric, Demon's Stocking Pattern, Demon's Boots Fabric, Demon's Gloves Fabric). You take it from level 30 at the alchemist Matild (what we go and do this quest for is needed after 40 anyway).

  1. Sea of Spores (teleport from Town of Oren). Take the quest from Alchemist Matild. You receive: Alchemy Text.

    Matild stands in the forest below the Ivory Tower (TP from Oren). But it is better to run to her from Sea of Spores, a TP from the same town; see the way on the map below.

  2. Cruma Marshlands (teleport from Town of Dion). Kill Secret Keeper Tree (lv. 47) to get: Secret Book of Potion.

    Matild sends us to beat up a level 47 quest mob. From the TP we turn to face the Cruma Tower and run to the first clearing (literally a few steps): the quest monster stands on the right side, fenced in with stones. We kill it and get a book into the quest inventory. Now, when you want to repeat this quest (and you surely will, because getting the item you need on the first try is quite a problem), you will not have to farm the quest mob again, you go straight to collecting the ingredients. It does not attack first, which leaves time to buff and get ready.

  3. Sea of Spores (teleport from Town of Oren). Return to Alchemist Matild. Hand over: Secret Book of Potion. You receive: 1st Potion Recipe, 2nd Potion Recipe.

    So, we go back to Matild and show her the book: she hands out two recipes into the quest inventory, and for each of them you have to collect four ingredients (that is 8 pieces in all).

Eight ingredients: my route through the locations

  1. All the items drop from mobs and there is no fixed order for getting them, so I worked out an optimal route through the locations for myself.

  2. Breka's Stronghold (teleport from Giran Castle Town). Hunt Amber Basilisk (lv. 30) until you have: Amber Scale.

    TP to Giran. The mobs stand right at the TP point and around it.

  3. Gorgon Flower Garden. Hunt Turak Bugbear (lv. 31), Turak Bugbear Warrior (lv. 33) until you have: Bugbear Blood.

    From the orcs we run toward Gorgon Flower Garden (that is where the castle is) and look for the mob. There are also similar level 33 aggro mobs there, the item drops from them too.

  4. Plains of Dion (teleport from Town of Dion). Hunt Glass Jaguar (lv. 27) until you have: Glass Eye.

    TP to Dion. The mobs stand right at the TP point and around it.

  5. Dion Arena. Hunt Silenos (lv. 30) until you have: Silenos Horn.

    From the jaguars we run toward the MDT, up the hill: the Silenos stand there on the slopes (in earlier chronicles they stood near Giran, but then they were moved here).

  6. Cruma Marshlands (teleport from Town of Dion). Hunt Horror Mist Ripper (lv. 27) until you have: Horror Ectoplasm.

    We go back to Dion and take the TP to Cruma Marshlands (where we beat the quest mob). The mobs stand a little further than the quest mob, there is a whole bunch of them. The rippers attack first and there are many of them, so pull one at a time.

  7. The Ant Nest (teleport from Town of Gludio). Hunt Ant Soldier (lv. 35), Ant Warrior Captain (lv. 36) until you have: Ant Soldier Aphid.

    TP to Gludio. From the TP point we climb straight into the cave and go along the right wall: the mobs we need are in the fourth room. They say the item drops from the other ants too, so beat everything in sight. Both kinds of ants attack on sight and help each other. If the nest is too crowded, the same ants also walk the Wasteland above ground.

  8. Wasteland (teleport from Gludin Village). Hunt Tyrant (lv. 35), Tyrant Kingpin (lv. 36) until you have: Tyrant's Chitin.

    As soon as the ant gave up its item we do not TP anywhere: we go back to the surface and, standing with our back to the cave, turn right and run all the way to where the golems stand, then turn left and come out onto a wide clearing with little groups of ants and golems, and among them stand 3–4 tyrants. Or another way: TP from Gludin to the Wasteland, run inside, and the mobs stand a bit further on (straight ahead from the entrance).

  9. Windy Hill (teleport from Gludin Village). Hunt Whispering Wind (lv. 30) until you have: Wind Soulstone.

    TP to Gludin Village. The mobs stand right at the TP point and around it (visually the biggest mob on the clearing).

  10. About the drop of the items: it is as luck will have it. I did the quest 4 times and from many mobs the item dropped almost at once; there were 2 slowdowns, once I went through about 25 basilisks before the item dropped, and once about 30–35 winds. Random, in short, but I did not get stuck anywhere for long.

  11. Sea of Spores (teleport from Town of Oren). Return to Alchemist Matild. Hand over: 1st Potion Recipe, 2nd Potion Recipe, Amber Scale, Wind Soulstone, Glass Eye, Horror Ectoplasm, Silenos Horn, Ant Soldier Aphid, Tyrant's Chitin, Bugbear Blood. You receive: Wish Potion, Matild's Orb.

    Everything is collected, we carry it to Matild. Handed in, and a little bottle lands in the ordinary inventory. You can trade it for a wish at once, or you can gather a lot of these potions and collect the rewards later. Either way, while we are standing here we can take the quest for the ingredients once more: the first line of her menu trades a potion for a wish, the second takes the quest for the ingredients.

The four wishes

  1. Now let us sort out the wishes themselves. They are all cool, of course, but nearly every one has a catch and is ruled by the great Korean random, so do not get your hopes up too much.

  2. Wish 1: I want to be loved. Matild summons the fairy of love Rupina; after talking to her you get 1 key material for crafting the Demon's set (these keys cannot be had anywhere else, there is no drop or spoil for them) or Necklace of Grace, B-grade, M.Def 68. Or else Matild summons three Succubus Of Seduction, which with some chance drop Forbidden Love Scroll; it is bought by the old codger of a dwarf Torai, who stands in Death Pass (TP from Giran to Dragon Valley or to Breka's Stronghold, the distance is about the same). I handed in this branch 2 times: once I was given the key for the Demon's tunic, the second time the B-grade necklace.

  3. Wish 2: I want 100 million adena. Matild gives 10k adena, or from 1 to 10kk adena, or summons three Grima mobs, each of which may drop up to five Gold Bar (or may drop nothing). The bars are worth 5k each. I did not need adena, so I did not do this branch.

  4. Wish 3: I want to be a king. Well, this branch is plain mockery of the players. You can get Ancient Crown, which cannot be put on your head and sells to a shop for 5 adena. You can get Certificate of Royalty; the certificate says that its bearer is a person of royal blood, and it sells to a shop for 5k adena. Or else she summons the mob Alexandro Sanches; after it is killed, with some chance Bonaparterius appears; after that one is killed, with some chance Ramsebalius appears; after that one, with some chance Great Demon King appears, and after killing him a whole piece of the C-grade Demon's set may drop (Demon's Tunic, Demon's Stockings, Demon's Boots or Demon's Gloves). The chances of getting the piece tend to zero ). I think nobody is going to do this branch of the quest )).

  5. Wish 4: I want to be the smartest. On this branch we can get Amulet: Pa'agrio's Heart, which drops nowhere else and comes only from this quest; it is because of this amulet that The Wishing Potion is done at all. In general they say that the reward on this branch is either 1 spellbook or the amulet, or else a chest out of which you can pull a book or the amulet. I went through it twice, and twice Matild summoned the chest Wisdom Chest: both times a heap of books and musical scrolls fell out of it, among them one amulet. (In the later chronicles, where spells are learned without books, the chest no longer holds the amulet.)

Tips

  • Bear in mind that all the mobs Matild summons are about level 50–55. Take that into account, or it will be a shame to do the quest and then fall to the mobs.
  • Matild's Orb stays with you after the first potion: with it every next round is only the eight ingredients, Matild hands out the recipes at once. Take them again right after the wish, so that you do not have to come back just for them.
