Thread: Potions of water creation?

  1. #1

    Default Potions of water creation?

    I seem to recall many an age ago where you could go swimming in a lake with lots of pointless potions and there was
    a chance that they would get diluted and turned to "water"

    Am I dreaming? Does it still happen (if it ever did) ?

    I'm guessing that that means its a big noooo on making potions of water?

    No, this does not happen in any version AFAIK.
    Hoping to win with every class, doomed. Archer, Barbarian, Bard, Beastfighter, Druid, Elementalist, Farmer, Fighter, Monk, and ULE Priest down.

    I'm not aware of it happening to me or anyone else during the 14 years I have been playing. You should probably wait for confirmation from someone more experienced than me before you consider the issue resolved, though.

    Are you sure you aren't mixing NetHack and ADOM up?

    I may have dreamt the whole thing up.

    Anyway, it seems like if the vessels that contained the potions were sealed tightly enough to keep the potion from leaking out, they would also be sealed tightly enough to keep water from leaking in.

    Not to mention the flask itself instantly and fully bio-degrades upon drinking its contents, preventing the PC from littering Ancardia or refilling them with water. Good design

    there are other roguelikes where you can do this such as powder, wazhack, possibly nethack (cant remember). looks like you mixed it up. getting water potions that easy in adom might be a bit overpowering. would be rather easy to bless damn near everything...

    Odd that doesn't stop Poison contamination.
