Poison resistance mead is a Black Forest-tier consumable item fermented from Mead base: Poison resistance.

Recipe[]

Mead base: Poison resistance is produced in a Mead ketill with:

Six Poison resistance meads are produced by fermenting the mead base for two in-game days.

Effect[]

Upon consumption, it grants "very resistant" to poison damage for 10 minutes, reducing poison effect duration and tick damage by 75%.

The poison resistance only works on poison applied while the resistance is active. A player drinking the mead after they were poisoned will not reduce the effect duration or tick damage.

You typically want to save this for directly before entering combat with a poisonous enemy to get the most time out of the potion. This potion does not last very long so you may want to bring a few per trip.

Notes[]

  • It is recommended to craft some before entering the Swamp for the first time to counteract the poison effect
    • Other poison-resistant gear requires Root Roots, which are only obtainable by killing Abominations.
  • The Poison resistance mead's "very resistant" effect overrides the "resistant" effect of the Root mask.
  • While the Poison resistance mead has a stronger effect than the Root Mask, The Root Mask's buff never expires.
