Mead refers to items which can be consumed for temporary health and stamina boosts as well as preventing harmful status effects. Mead must first be crafted into a mead base at a Cauldron and then fermented using a Fermenter.

Dehydration is not possible, but mead is helpful when faced with inescapable effects which can eventually result in death. Before acquiring the Wolf fur or Lox cape, consuming a Frost resistance mead is essential to progressing in the Mountains. Mead can be consumed with or without a tankard, Dvergr tankard or a Horn of Celebration.

List of mead[]

As listed below, duration refers to the length of time over which the mead provides its effect, whereas cooldown is the length of time during which a player cannot drink another mead of the same type. Unless otherwise listed, each type of mead weighs 1.0 and stacks to 10.
