I. Introduction

          To start herblore you must complete the quest Druidic Ritual. After it's completed you will have 3 herblore, and you'll be able to identify/clean guam herbs. At this stage you will be making attack potions, but first let's learn what is herblore.

          A. What is Herblore?
                    Herblore is a skill in which you will be identifying/cleaning herbs and turning the herbs into potions with a vial of water, a herb, and a third ingredient! You'll also be crushing unicorn horns and some other cool stuff with a pestle and mortar!! Herblore is one of the hardest skill to max out since you will either need a lot of money, or spend a long time gathering herbs.

          B. What's Herblore for?
                    Herblore is a real necessity in the game because it supplies players with many potions like the prayer potion, which regenerates your prayer, or the super strength potion, that gives you a large boost in your strength level! Fight caves, the place where you get a Firecape, cannot be beat without potions! All pkers use potions
 

[Prayer]

II. The Basics

          A. Herb Cleaning
                    Whenever you find a herb, whether it's coming from a herb patch, a dead monster, or a players trade box it's usually a grimy herb. A grimy herb means that it is not clean, and cannot be used in potions. To clean the herb so it can be used, you must click on the herb. All the herbs have requirements for them to be cleaned, here's the list

______	______________	____________	__________
	Herb	Experience	Level
	Guam	5	3
	Rogue's purse	5	3
	Marrentil	7.6	5
	Tarromin	10	11
	Harralander	12.6	20
	Ranarr weed	15	25
	Toadflax	16	30
	Irit leaf	17.6	40
	Avantoe	20	48
	Kwuarm	22.6	54
	Snapdragon	23.6	59
	Cadantine	25	65
	Lantadyme	26.2	67
	Dwarf weed	26.7	70
	Torstol	30	75

          B. Farming Herbs
                    While Herblore is generally an expensive skill to raise, it is possible to raise your levels through Farming. The only cost of which is buying the seeds or you can steal them from Master farmer is free. When herbs are picked, they are grimy. As mentioned above there are only 3 herb patches available, which are the ones in Catherby, Ardougne, and Falador.

                    Let's start farming herbs! First check if your farming level is enough to plant the specific herb seed you want. To start farming first get the herb seed you want to plant, a rake, a seed dibber, a spade, a plant cure, 3 compost, an air staff, 20 laws, 20 water runes. First you'll start in catherby, so teleport to Camelot and walk straight East. Once you're there, rake the weeds or use a spade to get rid of the dead plant. Place the compost in the patch then place the seed, that's why you have the seed dibber. You CANNOT water herbs, they grow without water. Teleport to ardougne and walk north to where the patch is. Once you finish planting one there go to falador and repeat. You'll be wearing the air staff to keep an inventory space free & because it's like not wasting air runes! You'll need the law and water to teleport to Catherby-Ardougne-Falador in that order. If your plant is diseased make sure to use a plant cure on it! Keep many plant cures saved as you won't want dead plants! When you pick the herbs make sure to clean them and bank them before going to the next patch. It's best to afk or do other things like skilling while your herbs grow so you won't have to spend time looking at your herb, or you can continuously teleport to each patch to see if they're getting diseased.


          C. Basics of the Potions
                    Creating a potion is really quite simple. All that is required is a Vial of water, a primary ingredient, and a secondary ingredient. Once you have all the correct ingredients needed in which to make your desired potion, you simply need to follow a simple method to complete your potion. Remember a small bit of potions require coconut water, rather than regular water, so keep some regular vials too!

Vial of water    +    Primary ingredient     =    Unfinished potion     +    Secondary ingredient     =    Completed potion

                    Here's the example, but using the real ingredients to make a Prayer potion.
Vial of water    +    Clean ranarr    =    Ranarr potion(unf)     +    Snape grass     =    Prayer potion(3)

          D. Potion Mixing
                    When potions are made, they are in 3-doses. Using two potions together will combine their doses. A 3-dose potion and a 2-dose will give you one 4-dose and one 1-dose potion. A 3-dose and a 1-dose will make a 4-dose. Two 2-doses will make a 4-dose, and so on. If all your potion goes into one vial, you will be left with the potion and the remaining vial. The Herblore level to make the potion is not required to combine them. Obviously, you can only mix potions of the same kind.

[Prayer]
