11-May-2026 - Apothecary Upgrades

Brighter Shores · published 11 May 2026, 12:12 UTC · build 23178995

All newsPlayers around this dateRead on Steam

Blacksmiths can now forge upgrades for the standard potion station. The first upgrade you install will add an action boost button to the standard potion station. Just like profession equipment, activating this action boost will give you double rewards (i.e. double XP, double knowledge and 2 potions). Subsequent upgrades will reduce the cooldown of the action boost.

Apothecary upgrades are forged from iron at the goblin forge. There is one upgrade available in each milestone of Blacksmith, starting at milestone 1. You can find more information in the Blacksmith recipe book and in the Blacksmith profession interface.

Quality of life improvements


• You can now rotate and zoom the camera at all times while doing mine cart work.
• Add a tooltip to the coins pouch in the toolbelt interface which shows the exact number of coins you have.

Bug fixes


• If you have not completed the Fractured Reality quest, you will no longer see players standing in midair over the river in Big River Cavern.
• Only the unicorn pufferfish now has a unicorn horn when being chopped into pufferfish sashimi.
• Sea spray no longer appears in the middle of the beach in Stony Coast.

The cart is too heavy for a human to move, so Yulo has lent her Oxtavius, his ox, to help with the task. Unfortunately for Marden, the stubborn animal refuses to move until he is fed his favorite treat, chopped apple. At each milestone of Chef, starting at m…
