1.0 Introducing Herblore
2.0 Beginning Herblore
3.0 Potions, Herbs, and Second Ingredients



Revision History:
05/7/04 - Created, Updated

1.0 Introducing Herblore
Herblore, the intricate art that is Potion Making. Learning Herblore allows you to Mix Herbs, and Second Ingredients, in water-filled vials and create Potions of all colours of the rainbow tongue.gif

To begin Herblore, you must have completed the Druidic Ritual Quest.


2.0 Beginning Herblore
Identifying Herbs
By killing monsters, eventually you will come across an herb. All unidentified herbs look the same. When monsters drop herbs they are 'Unidentified', meaning you have to identify them. If your herblore level is high enough you will be able to identify it, at which point it can be used for making potions. Unidentified herbs cannot be made into potions.

Making Potions
To make a potion you will need three things:
An identified herb
A vial filled with water
The 2nd ingredient for the herb

An Identified Herb
To get an herb, you will either need to purchase them from players, or kill monsters, such as Druids, and Chaos Druids. There are many other NPC's which can drop herbs. To identify an herb, simply click on it.

A Vial Filled with Water
You can get a vial either at the Herblore Shop (in Taverly), or you can buy one that has been filled already with water from the Adventurer's Shop, in Ardougne. You can also get a vial by emptying a potion (just drink it until the doses run out). If your vial is not filled with water, you must fill it by using it with a sink or a fountain. This will fill it and allow it to be used for Herblore.

The Second Ingredient
To find the appropriate Second Ingredient, look at the tables in section 3.0. Locations of Second Ingredients are found below.

Making the Potion
Once you have all the items for making your potion, you must put it all together. First, use your identified herb with your water-filled vial, then use the 'unfinished potion' with your Second Ingredient. You get the experience when you add the 2nd ingredient.

Greenman's Ale
You can purchase a beer called "Greenman's Ale" from the pub in Yanille. This pub is found west of the Wizard's Guild. This drink temporarily raises your herblaw level by 1, but decreases your attack, defense, and strength by 4.

Beginner Herblawists, should start off with:
Mortar and Pestle
At least 50 Water-filled Vials
50 Eye's of Newt
Unicorn Horns
Limpwurt Roots

All of those items will help you get to at least 10 Herblore, in a day or two. All potions are 3-dose, with the exception of Weapon Poison, which has only one dose, but can poison 1 Dagger, 1 Spear, 10 Arrows, or 10 Darts.
I recommend Chaos Druids, in Taverly Dungeon, or the Chaos Druid Tower(if your thieving is high enough), or Edgeville Members Wilderness Dungeon (lvl 1-5 wild).
Druids drop herbs regularly, but not as often as Chaos Druids.
Many other NPC's also drop Herbs.

3.0 Potions, Herbs, and Second Ingredients
Second Ingredient Locations:
  • Eye of Newt - Can be bought from Taverly Herblore Shop, Betty's Magic Emporium (Port Sarim)
  • Unicorn Horns - Scattered Throughout RuneScape. For fast collecting, I suggest Black Unicorns in level 30-ish Wilderness, North east of Edgeville
  • Limpwurt Root - Hobgoblins & Giants. I recommend the Hobgoblin Mine in the Wilderness, or Hobgoblin Peninsula.
  • Red Spider Eggs - 1 Spawn at Varrock Sewers (Up near the Moss Giants), 1 spawn at Karamja Volcano (Near the Red Spiders), 6 spawn at Edgeville Members Dungeon (North of the Gate entrance to wilderness) Note: Deadly Red Spider's do not drop Red Spider Eggs
  • Snape Grass - Hobgoblin Peninsula respawn (3), Chaos Druids drop them (uncommon)
  • White Berries - Red Dragons in the Wilderness (3 or 4 Respawns)
  • Wine of Zamorak - Only at Chaos Temple, North of Goblin Village (Telegrab or kill all Monks of Zamorak to pick it up)
  • JangerBerries - Feldip Hills, a small Isle down there
