⦉ Whirlpool Potion ⦊

1 Bottled Water + 1 Specular Fish + 1 Waterleaf + 1 Coral @ Placed Bottle / Alchemy Table

The Whirlpool Potion teleports the player to the farthest ocean, similar to the Magic Conch, although significantly faster. It can be obtained from Underground Desert Pots, Sandstone Chests, and Water Chests.

⦉ Chasm Potion ⦊

1 Bottled Water + 1 Specular Fish + 1 Fireblossom + 1 Hellstone @ Placed Bottle / Alchemy Table

The Chasm Potion teleports the player to the Underworld, and, like the Whirlpool and Recall Potions, is faster than its non-consumable counterpart, the Demon Conch. It can be obtained from Underworld Pots and Shadow Chests. Since Recall Potions are a potion version of the Magic Mirror, I thought it would be interesting to have a potion version of the Conches too. Also, lava fishing is literal hell.

With these potions the two conches are now basically useless and as a result Lava Fishing and the Underground Desert now have less reasons to be explored, because these two common and easy to craft potions replace them entirely

If you dont like Lava fishing improve it, dont literally remove one of the few reasons it has to be done

Honestly, I made this post just to throw out the idea of a potion version of the Conches, and also because I already made the sprites and thought they were cool. I slapped on the crafting recipes because that's what I always do with my "polished" posts, but you're right, I made them too cheap. How about this instead:

Whirlpool Potion = 1 Bottled Water + 1 Specular Fish + 1 Waterleaf + 2 Tulip / Lightning Whelk Shells + 8 Sturdy Fossils
Chasm Potion = 1 Bottled Water + 1 Specular Fish + 1 Flarefin Koi + 1 Obsidifish + 1 Fireblossom

As for their spawn rates in chests:

Whirlpool Potion = 100% chance to spawn 1 - 3 in Water Chests, 50% chance to spawn 1 in Sandstone Chests
Chasm Potion = 50% chance to spawn 1 - 2 in Shadow Chests

If you feel that these still need adjustment, feel free to suggest your own crafting recipes or spawn rates

it would be cool if chasm was in the shape of a skull

My Necromancy Potion is already in the shape of a skull so I chose a different shape

Hard to do that at this scale without it looking like a deformed blob
