With this guide I’m going to teach you the recipes for the Tinctures as well all the Herbs and Root locations.
Tinctures Ingredients, Herbs & Roots
This is guide with all the herbs in game and the recipes for all the Tinctures that you can brew in game.
Tinctures are used for boosting the player Immunity, to reveal the symptoms of the disease so you can administer the right antibiotic and to boost the key NPCs resistance to the infection to save as many as possible.
So you will need as many as possible.
Water Bottle
The Water Bottle, besides quenching your thirst it’s the base ingredient that you need to brew all the Tinctures, to get a Water Bottle you need a Empty Bottle, fill it with water in one of the fountains or water barrels in game to become a Water Bottle (Well obviously)
PS: Muddy Watter can’t be used to brew Tinctures, it will decrease your thirst but it will increase infection
Herbs
Collecting herbs plays a vital part in the mechanics of the game.
You can sell them for some profit at the pub “The Broken Heart“.
But storing them to brew Tinctures is advisable, especially the rare herbs.
Ashen Swish (Rare)
Black Twyre (Common)
Blood Twyre
Brown Twyre (Common)
Swevery (Rare)
White Whip (Rare)
Roots Locations
At some point early in the game, you will hear a rumbling sound after exiting Lara’s house, turning left you will find a naked woman who will introduce you to earth’s root.
Standing still it will emerge from underground and pouring blood, from a blood-filled flask, on top of it it will gift you with herbs, sometimes rare herbs.
Blood-filled flask, can be obtained by performing autopsies on corpses and pouring out the blood into an Empty Bottle after performing the first cut.
Tinctures
Tinctures can be created by combining two herbs and one Water Bottle, and are used to boost the player’s immunity or to discover disease symptoms when healing the infected.
