Inky Black Potions story & psa

I just gave inky black potions to a returning player who helped me with a rare in nazjatar then i helped him with a quest. I gave it to him in a nazjatar cave area he activated it and saw no difference. Then I flew him over the rocks, the pure shock and joy this man had was amazing. It made me so happy and just made my whole night and cheered me up when i really needed it. Shoutout to you dude, sorry I couldnt give gearing advice

I those unaware. Inky black potions turn the gameworld to night. And you get to really see some if the lovely lighting effects going on in the world. Perfect for leveling up

If anyone hasnt tried these yet go pick some up from the darkmoon fair next week (or the auction house). Try it out the game can be so pretty if they let it be. Also looks amazing if ou happen to have the new ray tracing. In bfa I recomend checking out the zandalar capital, the temple in nazmir and go to voldun and look at the snake head in the darkness. And if you mean a nice new player give them an inky black potion as a gift. Spread the love around

Im thinking of going to a starting area or exiles reach and just giving them away. What is your favourite area with these potions what landmarks look amazing?

I had no idea these existed! I am defenitely getting some when the fair comes to town :smiley:

They can also be bought and sold in the Auction House so no need to wait for Darkmoon!

I love Suramar with Black Inky Potion! I usually use it when it’s night irl, so I get the full immersion of the world :love_you_gesture:

Enjoying to have it once in awhile but the amount of complex difficulties and challenges it brings, especially in PvP battlegrounds. You literally don’t see anything at far sight.

I understand why they changed old light options to new one, it’s much much clearer and easier on the eyes. But then again darkest nights had their own feels.

I had no idea! Glad to hear it

Out of curiosity, how long does the effect last? Do you need to chug a potion every x amount of hours to maintain the effect?

Also I assume it is on a per character rather than per account basis ?

There could just be an option to turn it off like when we were still able to turn on old character models

Think it lasts an hour. Just buy it in the auction house

Thanks, hopefully they aren’t too expensive if it’s necessary to drink one every hour to maintain the effect!

They’re not that expensive on our server last time I checked anyway

Highmountain looks spectacular under the effects of that potion.

Lasts 2 hours. Its literally just a buff on your character so youd have to take it on each character to get its effect. It persists through log out tho. So if you use it for 15 min then log out youll log back in with 1:45 still left. You can send it to all your characters tho. I bought about 260 last time i bought some.

I really wish this was the case. But it would remove the special feeling of getting the potion from darkmoon.
