Might and Magic VII: For Blood and Honor Hints

Compound (Layered) Potions

  • Compound potions can be made by combining one complex potion with another complex potion or a basic (primary-color) potion.  Only characters with at least Expert Alchemy skills can make compound potions.  The resulting potion has a power equal to the average of the powers of the two ingredients.  The potion will show both colors of the original potions.
