Introduction
Infinite Potions are very rare treasures to collect which are basically a never-ending pot. Most of the item pieces must be obtained as a rare grinding drop and can take hours and hours to collect. Most people end up grinding over 100k trash loot at each location before obtaining the items so be warned before you start that this is not something you should expect to get quickly.
You must collect 5 item pieces and then combine them together to create the potion item. Once crafted they are bound to family, so they can be transferred to another character via storage, but the items and some items required to craft it cannot be sold on the Central Market.
There are two different types you can collect:
The two items have exactly the same stats and cooldown as the instant XL potions but they do have a weight of 50LT, which is equal to carrying 20 of the XL potions. They also have no cost to use, saving you billions of silver over time and making them a very desired item!
Ancient Potions
If you completed the Infinite HP or MP potion before 15th September 2021 then you can create an "Ancient" Potion.
To get started you need to go to Merindora in Grana. Her location is shown below. She will have a quest you can complete to obtain a Dawnwish or Duskwish Petal.
After you have completed the quest at Merindora you will need to process your Ornette's/Odore's Spirit Essence with another material to create the Ancient version.
| Material | Processing Method | Result |
| Dawnwish Petal |  Use Heating with Powder of Flame x1 | * The crafter's family name is branded onto the item. Speak with Merindora after to receive the title "Herald of Dawn" |
 Use Simple Alchemy with Powder of Time x1 | * The crafter's family name is branded on the item the name is changed as above. Speak with Merindora after to receive the title "Herald of Dawn" | |
| Duskwish Petal | Use Heating with Powder of Flame x1 | * The crafter's family name is branded onto the item. Speak with Merindora after to receive the title "Herald of Dusk" |
| Use Simple Alchemy with Powder of Time x1 | * The crafter's family name is branded on the item the name is changed as above. Speak with Merindora after to receive the title "Herald of Dusk" |

There are 2 different ways you can create the Infinite potion. The first way is to combine all 5 items in the following pattern in your inventory to create a Ornette's Spirit Essence.
The second option is to combine the items gradually to create a weaker potion. You need one of the items and an Everlasting Water (which can be obtained from Merindora in Grana)
Item 1: Sherekhan's Panacea
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding monsters at Sherekhan Necropolis. The following mobs drop the item: Garud, Belcadas, Lateh (Night only) and Nybrica (Night only). This area has a recommened minimum AP of 210. This zone also drops Dragon Scale Fossils and Garmoth's Scale which are needed for other infinite potion items.
As well as dropping the completed Sherekhan's Panacea, you can drop Dragon's Fang. Once you have x100 Dragon's Fang you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you a Dragon's Roar x1. You can then combine the Dragon's Fang and Dragon's Roar into a Sherekhan's Panacea using Simple Alchemy.
Item 2: Ron's Tintinnabulum
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding monsters at Forest Ronaros/Tooth Fairy Forest. The mobs which can drop this piece are: Froest Ronaros Guardian and Forest Ronaros Catcher. This area has a recommened minimum AP of 240. Monsters in this area also drop Rumbling Earth Shards which are needed for other infinite potion items.
As well as dropping the completed Ron's Tintinnabulum, you can drop Tranquil Tinniolum. Once you have x100 Tranquil Tinniolum you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you a Forest's Whisper x1. You can then combine the Tranquil Tinniolum and Forest's Whisper into a Ron's Tintinnabulum using Simple Alchemy.
Item 3: Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding monsters at Blood Wolf Settlement. The mobs which can drop this piece are: Kagtum Executioner and Kagtum Guard. This area has a recommened minimum AP of 190. Monsters in this area also drop Garmoth's Scale which are needed for other infinite potion items.
As well as dropping the completed Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak, you can drop Blood Wolf's Oath. Once you have x100 Blood Wolf's Oath you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you a Crimson Breath of Resentment x1. You can then combine the Blood Wolf's Oath and Crimson Breath of Resentment into a Ash Halfmoon Kagtunak using Simple Alchemy.
Item 4: Gayak's Courage Stone
Once you have the first 3 items, you must go to the NPC "Merindora". She is located on the east side of Grana and will have a quest for you to complete to gain some knowledge. You must unlock this knowlege before being able to exchange the other items.
You then must go to Camira, who is the node manager of Sherekhan Necropolis. She will be able to exchange 30 Garmoth's Scales for the 4th item. Garmoth Scales are a rare drop while hunting certain monsters around Dreighan, and can also be bought from the central market.
Item 5: Musical Spirit's Sound Stone
Once you have the first 3 items, you must go to the NPC "Merindora". She is located on the east side of Grana and will have a quest for you to complete to gain some knowledge. You must unlock this knowlege before being able to exchange the other items.
You then must go to Moyamo, who is the node manager of Okiara River. Now you will be able to exchange 300 Peridot Leaf for the final item. Peridot Leaves are an item you can get by completing daily quests in Kamaslyvia. I recommend watching this video guide if you don't know where to pick up the quests. There is also more information available on the BDO forums: Peridot Leaf Quest Locations Map (Kamasylvia) and Peridot Leaf Quest Locations Map (Grana). You can get a total of 24 peridot leaves daily by just doing the grana quests and these take a total of 10 to 15 minutes.
Odore's Spirit Essence (MP Potion)
The Infinite MP potion requires the following items:
Valtarra's Clairvoyance
- This item can drop when grinding certain monsters at and skinning them with a Tanning Knife at Navarn Steppe
- The item can also be crafted using Simple Alchemy with the following:
Markthanan's Gland
- This item can drop when grinding certain monsters at Tshira Ruins

Krogdalo's Protection Stone (Obtained using Rumbling Earth Shard x100 – more information below)

To create the potion you need to combine all 5 items in the following pattern in your inventory to create a Odore's Spirit Essence.
Item 1: Valtarra's Clairvoyance
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding specific monsters at Navarn Steppe then skinning them with a Tanning Knife . The monsters which you can skin are: Ferrica, Ferrina, Belladonna Elephant and Baby Belladonna Elephant.
I recommend killing the Ferrica and Ferrina birds because they are easy to knockdown and kill as well as having a fast respawn. There is a particular spot I used to grind this item, which is shown on the map below. In that spot the birds are more dense and you can easily pull full packs by just hitting the blue ones. They have around a 10 second respawn time.
This area has a recommened minimum AP of 210. I am honestly not sure if your mastery effects the drop rate (I would presume it does) so try to use your lifeskilling character if possible, or a Magic Tanning Knife to improve your luck.
As well as dropping the completed Valtarra's Clairvoyance, you can drop Valtarra's Memory. Once you have x100 Valtarra's Memory you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you Valtarra's Nail x1. You can then combine the Valtarra's Memory and Valtarra's Nail into a Valtarra's Clairvoyance using Simple Alchemy.
Item 2: Markthanan's Gland
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding monsters at Tshira Ruins. The mobs which drop this piece are: Leaf Keeper, Vine Keeper and Grove Keepers. This area has a recommened minimum AP of 140. Monsters in this area also drop Garmoth's Scale which are needed for other infinite potion items.
As well as dropping the completed Markthanan's Gland, you can drop Katzvariak's Venom. Once you have x100 Katzvariak's Venom you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you Markthanan's Greed x1. You can then combine the Katzvariak's Venom and Markthanan's Greed into a Markthanan's Gland using Simple Alchemy.
Item 3: Narc's Crimson Tear
This item is obtained as a rare drop by grinding monsters at Manshaum Forest. The only mob that can drop this piece is Manshaum Shaman. This area has a recommened minimum AP of 240. Monsters in this area also drop Rumbling Earth Shards which are needed for other infinite potion items.
As well as dropping the completed Narc's Crimson Tear, you can drop Narc's Solace. Once you have x100 Narc's Solace you can go to Merindora to show her the items. She will give you Narc's Tear x1. You can then combine the Narc's Solace and Narc's Tear into a Narc's Crimson Tear using Simple Alchemy.

Once you have the first 3 items, you must go to the NPC "Merindora". She is located on the east side of Grana and will have a quest for you to complete to gain some knowledge. You must unlock this knowlege before being able to exchange the other items.
You then must go to Krogdalo's Trace, who is the node manager of Krogdalo's Trace (northwest of Grana). Here you will be able to exchange 100 Rumbling Earth Shards for the 4th item. Rumbling Earth Shards are obtained by exchanging Horse Race Seal x1, Shiny Golden Seal – [Imperial Training] x2, OR Peridot Leaf x15. There are also drop when killing some monsters in Kamaslyvia and can be bought from the central market.
