New Potion Recipes

7 new recipes were recently introduced.
All of them are recipes for potions.

1. Bottled Dragons Breath
Level 250 - Ignite - Duration of 120 mins - Min level 5

Since ignite isn't too useful a spell, and a higher level ignite does not give more damage (just higher chance of activation), I don't think this potion will be worth making.

2. Caged Imp
Level 400 - Summon Shield Imp - Duration 120 mins - Min level 5
(WAS)Level 200 - Summon Shield Imp - Duration 120 mins - Min level 5
(WAS) Level 100 - Summon Shield Imp - Duration 90 mins - Min level 5

This potion was upgraded twice after it was introduced. Now at level 400, it is higher than a skill buff, and will offer 11 blocks. By value of stam for the buff, this is worth at least 4 fsps. But its usefulness as 11 blocks will mean it is probably worth more than.

3. Marbled Fizzing Shield
Level 300 - Force Shield - Duration of 120 mins - Min level 5

Even though the name says shield, it is referring to the effect of the potion and not a shield you can equip. Force Shield is a useful buff, and can be a life saver, especially in PvP. A level 300 buff gives a 30% chance of activation. Prior to this, the highest one can get is the Potion of Shielding, level 200 buffs, and very short duration.

4. Potion of Ensnaring Grasp
Level 250 - Shockwave - Duration of 90 mins - Min level 5

This translate to a 25% chance that your opponent will forfeit their next combat turn. Again, this can be useful in PvP.

5. Potion of Nullifying Draft
Level 250 - Spell Breaker - Duration of 120 mins - Min level 5

At level 250, this gives 25% chance to remove a random buff from PvP opponents. Again useful in PvP scenario, especially if you are hitting the target multiple times.

6. Potion of Reinforced Will
Level 50 - Avert Gaze - Duration of 60 mins - Min level 5

This potion is below the level of a skill buff, making it quite useless. However, the skill is only available to level 900 or higher. UveBinHad pointed out that this potion can be useful in hunting the Colossus Titan. That titan has Hypnotize and can be a bit difficult to hit when the skill activates.

7. Potion of Waking Hypnotism
Level 100 - Avert Gaze - Duration of 60 mins - Min level 5

Same as above, but level 100.

8. Crippling Poison
Level 100 - Poison - Duration of 60 mins - Min level 5

This potion is also below the level of a skill buff. Again, since this buff is available only to level 900 or higher, it might find its use among lower level player/guild.

9. Deadly Venom
Level 50 - Poison - Duration of 60 mins - Min level 5

Same as above, but level 50, so definitely less useful.

Thanks to Tully for getting me the recipes for the first 7 potion.
Thanks to Scathian for alerting me to the potions that Tully missed. (Tully, you can blame Scathian). :)
