- Use this to create Common or Uncommon potions, as a Journey Activity instead of during downtime. For downtime, use - During a long rest, you have the option to take the [[Alchemy, Trail Draft]] Campcraft activity, instead. - For crafting potions of Rare, Very Rare, or Legendary rarity, you must take the [[Craft (Alchemy) Oldie|Craft (Alchemy) Old]] **downtime** activity. Potions and poisons, tinctures and tonics — these alchemical elixirs can be the difference between life and death to adventurers. To undertake this Journey Activity, you will need access to two things: [Alchemist’s Supplies](https://a5e.tabletopbytheik.nl/compendium/items/alchemists_supplies) and ingredients. You cannot undertake this Journey Activity until you have ingredients, which you can acquire through the [[Gather Crafting Ingredients]] or [[Purchase Ingredients]] Campcraft Activity, or other methods, such as farming or stealing, at your GMs discretion. With adequate apparatus and suitable supplies in hand, brewing a potion from the list below is an [[13-Journeys-A5E/Journey Activities A5E/Journey Activities#Extended Tests|Extended Test]] with a Goal of 13. To make a common potion over the course of a Journey, you must make three DC 13 Intelligence or Dexterity (Alchemist’s Supplies) Tests, using up one portion of ingredients. To make an uncommon potion over the course of a Journey, you must make three DC 16 Intelligence or Dexterity (Alchemist’s Supplies) Tests, using up one portion of ingredients. Note that during a Long Rest (as a Campcraft) you have the option to take the [[Alchemy, Trail Draft]] activity, instead. **Time:** The adventurer must spend the entire region undertaking this activity. On a success, you create the Common or Uncommon potion of your choice. **If you exceed the Goal by 5 or more**, your batch turns out so well that you have enough leftover to make one extra potion of the same effect. On a failure, you produce a potion with no noticeable effect.
