Bab 1947: High Grade

Tier 8 products were the pinnacle of high-grade apothecary ingenuity, a mark of true mastery in the craft. Typically, it took months of meticulous practice and years of refining techniques to perfect a single recipe. Most master-level apothecaries could only claim mastery over a handful of tier 8 potions throughout their entire professional careers. Consequently, any attempt to create a tier 8 product garnered immense interest from fellow apothecaries, including masters and grandmasters.

Elaborate sets of herbs, minerals, and rare components were arranged with care, as each apothecary focused on manifesting their skills in the delicate art of potion-making.
