Heartreach Potion
Helpful for battles that drop a lot of hearts. Can come in handy when low on HP. Only obtainable with a Crimson Tigerfish, so it is very challenging to get them in a world with Corruption.
Hunter Potion
Useful for finding hidden NPC’s and rare enemies. Good for finding a Spider Nest, Lizhard Temple, etc.
Inferno Potion
Good replacement for the Flask of Fire, and pairs well with the Flask of Cursed Flames/Ichor. Very expensive and complicated to craft.
Invisibility Potion
Helpful for avoiding enemies if you’re in a tough situation. Also is very useful for catching Truffle Worms. Useless in PVP because your wings, minions, light pets, and pets are visible.
Ironskin Potion
Very useful in any stage of progression. Provides 8 extra defense which can lead to better survivability. Pairs well with the Dryad’s Blessing and the Bast Statue.
Lifeforce Potion
Very useful for surviving boss battles. Increases your health capacity by 20%, which can give you a boost in battle.
Love Potion
Only use for trolling and being stupid.
Magic Power Potion

Magic Regeneration Potion
Useful for Summoners and Mages in any stage of the game. The ability to regenerate your mana is always helpful. Goes well with the Magic Power Potion.
