Ivory Tower Abyssal Dungeon

Elixirs

- To refine an Elixir, players need to first get ‘Ductility Catalyst’ by paying gold and Chaos Stones. Catalysts are also acquirable through Wandering Merchant in Voldis.
- The refining process requires both a certain amount of Gold and Catalysts. Players have a set amount of tries for each refining process, and players can use the advice from the three Sages of the Tower to pick the best outcome possible. Players will need to think carefully and use the advice well – it’s important to understand the logic of the system.
- There are powerful Set bonuses to aim for when special conditions are met. The refining process is unlike any other experience in Lost Ark – it relies on a certain amount of luck, but it also requires the players to think carefully and logically to plan for the best outcome.
- Once the Elixir is done refining, players can imbue the Elixir to their equipment to get bonus effects. Only 1525 Ancient Gear earned from the Akkan Legion Raid can be imbued with Elixirs. There are various types of bonuses that Elixirs provide – categorized broadly into offensive, defensive, and utility. Players can choose a maximum of five abilities for each Elixir and refine two out of the five. There will be 10 abilities once refining is done – two for each equipment (as Elixirs are not applied to the weapon).
- You can accept the quest '[Guide] Alchemy's Blossom, Elixir' via the quest journal when you first acquire Elixirs.
- In Elgacia, 'Arian orb,' you can check the guide for Elixirs through the quest '[Guide] What is an Elixir?'
- You can craft Elixirs using 'Energy of Wisdom.'
- Clearing the 'Trampled Garden' in the Abyssal Dungeon, Ivory Tower on Normal difficulty grants 'Clear Energy of Wisdom.'
- Clearing it on Hard difficulty grants 'Radiant Energy of Wisdom.'
- The effect level of the 'Clear Elixir of Wisdom' can increase up to level 4.
- The effect level of the 'Radiant Elixir of Wisdom' can increase up to level 5.
- When all available Transmute attempts are used. Transmute attempts are not consumed during the effect refinement stage.
- When there are only two effects available for Transmute due to sealing, and all effects have reached their maximum level.
Elixir Updates
For players who have been following Elixirs in the Korean version of Lost Ark, we’re excited to announce that we will be releasing the changes to Elixirs recently announced in LOA ON in the Ivory Tower update.- The cost of refining and transmuting of Epic Elixirs has been reduced. The Gold requirements are reduced from 120 Gold to 40 Gold, resulting in one Epic elixir requiring a total of 640 + 40 Gold instead of 1920 Gold.
- Amount of refining, transmuting material of Epic Elixir will be reduced
- before: Stabilized Ductility Catalyst x 2 / now: Stabilized Ductility Catalyst x 1
- The transmute amount (amount of tries) for Epic Elixirs will increase from 11 to 12.
- The number of Elixirs that can be crafted by tradeable materials (Clear Essence of Wisdom, Splendid Essence of Wisdom) will increase from 5 to 10.
