Potion-making has made a significant change to the 99 Nights in the Forest experience. This limited-time mechanic lets players dive into wilderness witchcraft by gathering different ingredients from the forest and putting them into the cauldron. However, the potions you obtain are random, with some having beneficial and others having adverse effects.
You won't know a potion's effects unless you consume it. Learn more about the high-risk, high-reward mechanic in this comprehensive guide.
List of all 99 Nights in the Forest potion ingredients
All potion ingredients in the game (Image via Roblox)Ingredients for brewing potions can be classified into 'common' and 'rare' categories. The common ingredients are usually obtained by hunting animals and fishing. On the other hand, the rare ingredients require much exploration from your part, since you will need to explore caves and other dangerous parts of the forest.
Here's how you can get the common potion ingredients:
- Morsel: Dropped by a bunny, wolf, alpha wolf, polar bear, bear, arctic fox, scorpion, and frog when they are killed.
- Bunny Foot: 1 in 6 chance to drop from a bunny.
- Coal: Can be found all over the map, especially near trump stumps.
- Mackerel: Fish in the ponds with a Fishing Rod until you get the ingredient.
- Steak: Dropped by a wolf, alpha wolf, bear, polar bear, mammoth, and hellephant when killed.
- Berry: Pick them from the berry bushes.
The rare ingredients and their locations are as follows:
- Dripleaf: Dripleaf plants appear near ponds, most commonly when the Campfire is at Level 3 or above.
- Moonflower: Pick them at night time. It can be found anywhere on the map, and is recognizable by its bright light
- Stareweed: Harvest it after pointing your Flashlight towards it for a few seconds. Its eyes will widen, signalling that it is ready to be collected.
- Cavevine: This can only be found underground. So, search for it in the Missing Kids' caves or in any mineshafts.
- Mandrake Plant: Pluck this giant blue flower after finding it near the Trick or Treat houses.
