Potion of Ancestral Spirits

"Steadies the nerves and steels the soul against the onset of Ancestral Nostalgia."

I truly hope the TS increases the incentives and rewards from trips to the ancestral lands, otherwise I can't see the utility of this potion given the extreme high cost and effort to brew it.

  • Diamonds! EHSP. More seeds to make more potions. I can get thousands of currants and xp in one run. I'm not really sure what more you'd want.

  • Maybe you are more lucky than me, or maybe you visit the ancestral lands at ungodly hours, but when I do the trip I rarely find more than 10 coins and less than 5 traps. And the traps usually spawn paper or +5 seconds mitocondria. :(

  • Oh that's a bummer. I live close by so I try to hit it up whenever I'm not being oppressed by my memories. Diamonds and EHSP aren't common by any means but they do appear. I'm not sure if you have a specific route you run, but it helps maximize your time. Also, buffs that speed you up work wonders.

  • Funny, I almost always max out my energy with a run in the ancestral lands.  Thing is, I can do that without the potion, so I'm not sure if the potion might really be worth it or not.

  • Anyone know how many seconds or minutes the potion adds?

  • Really?  Only 5 minutes?  Gah, that makes it worse than I even thought, because I always thought it was bad with 10 minutes.   5 minutes would not be enough to offset the currant cost to make the potion in most given instances.  Unless they make changes to the AL, this potion is crap.

  • Actually, the Ancestral potion is one of my favorites.

    I love to use it when 2/3 my run-thru time has netted me little - because then it seems that the traps and coins tripped by previous runners are starting to reset and, after quaffing the potion, I can usually end up making quite a haul. :)
