What are Drinks and Soaks?

Drinks and Soaks are additional effects that you can add to your healing Gourd. These will offer a variety of different enhancements such as increasing attack, critical hit, defense, and stamina to name a few. Also, they can increase how much your Gourd will heal, how it heals, and other stuff such as replenishing mana alongside the heal. You won’t be able to use Drinks and Soaks until you meet "Shen Monkey" iconShen Monkey at the Marsh of White Mist in Bamboo Grove in Chapter 2. After you’ve met him, you’ll get the option to “brew”, which is where you’ll add the effects of Drinks and Soaks. This can be done at any Shrine in the game, and each Drink and Soak has infinite uses.

In general, Drinks will offer you enhancements on how much health you can recover while also rewarding you with an enhancement to your attributes. Soaks provide secondary effects on top of what you get from the Drink. Depending on your Gourd, you can have multiple Soaks attached to one sip of your Gourd.
