Effect
- Consume the potion to inflict on yourself.
Condition: Broken Promises
Where to find
- At the end of the Overgrown Tunnel in the Acrid Workshop. Set on a stone shelf alongside ten other dangerous potions made by Auntie Ethel.
Notes
- This is the only potion in Auntie Ethel's workshop with a short-term benefit and long-term detriment.
- Attempting to the effect will trigger the detriment immediately.
- If you absolutely must use the short-term benefit, the negative effect can be mitigated with the following, somewhat extreme strategies:
- Killing the character in question (they must actually be dead, not simply rolling death saves) and then bringing them back via Withers or a Scroll of Revivify will remove the effect.
- However, this will also remove certain other "permanent" effects such as Loviatar's Love.[Needs Verification]
- You could respec at Withers into a build that simply doesn't utilize strength.
- You can switch to the Club of Hill Giant Strength as your main weapon.
- If you plan on taking a story path that would remove one character from your party roster permanently, (such as sacrificing someone to BOOOAL), you could give the potion to the character in question.
- Similarly, you could give the potion to a Withers hireling you plan on later dismissing.
- You can also opt to simply not consume the potion until the final stretch of the game, when you had already taken your final long rest.
- Killing the character in question (they must actually be dead, not simply rolling death saves) and then bringing them back via Withers or a Scroll of Revivify will remove the effect.
