Herblore

Herblore is a skill in Runic Ages that allows players to make potions for different uses. Unlike vanilla, Herblore does not utilize the Brewing Stand; potions are mixed by hand in the crafting grid using vials of water.

Herblore utilizes Pestle and Mortars and has an associated villager occupation: Druids, whose POI-block is the Mossy Cobblestone Slab block.

Herbs

Grimy herbs are herbs that have not yet been cleaned. Grimy herbs can be cleaned by using them (right-click) as long as the player has the required Herblore level, providing a small amount of Herblore experience. Grimy herbs cannot be used to make potions and thus must be cleaned first.

Grimy Guam	Clean Guam	1 Herblore	1 Herblore
Grimy Tarromin	Clean Tarromin	5 Herblore	11 Herblore
Grimy Marrentill	Clean Marrentill	9 Herblore	5 Herblore

Secondaries

Secondaries are the other component of a potion as implied by the name and are put into the potion after mixing a vial of water with a clean herb. Secondaries come from various sources such as crops or mob drops.

Potions

Making potions with Herblore requires combining items in a crafting grid. The first step involves combining a primary (clean herbs in most cases) with a vial of water to produce an unfinished potion prefixed with the herb's name. The next and final step involves combining an unfinished potion with a secondary such as an Eye of Newt or Redberries.
