Any more luck on Tonic of Benefit Affinity III?

[Tinedil]

I have tried all types of vendor combines based around the level 1 version. Hoping it is all vendor made like the potion for the original trophy

I see Dalmalt on Cazic has Benefit II but so far have been unable to catch him at the keyboard. He may not even have made it, maybe it converted like the others. Will keep on trucking. Can't make my trophy till I get that potion figured.

Same here, its all I lack

Benefit II has a known recipe, III is waiting on finding out what "essence from powerful shades" is.

Tonic of benefit affinity III...forgot..someone told me the recipe earlier..need to find Exceptional Shade Essence.

Here is the recipe I was given:
Tonic of Benefit Affinity III
Blade Leaf (1)
Clover (1)
Sage (2)
Aloe (1)
Runed Potion Vial (1)
Exceptional Shade Essence (1)

Yeah. The zones with the drops will be pushed about 4am PST, so should be available about 5am. More info in Artisan's way on EQ's Boards.

Sorry!

Wow Ngreth, good job!! Can't express enough how nice it is to have someone take the time and give the playerbase a little information. Something other than "We are working on it" is nice !!

Kudos to you!!

Ssraeshza Temple
The Deep
The Grey
The Akheva Ruins
The Undershore

So where will drop Exceptional Shade Essence? I will try Akheva, it will repop in 20min here

Exceptional shade essence now dropping in Griegs End from a Wretched servant - my guess is probably from any shade other people in zone said they had seen a few.
