Potions and recovery cards
Explore recovery items and cards, keeping each source’s era and region distinct.
Scope and reading notes
The local download has now been decoded beyond the original samples. See downloaded AEGIS material for Alpha maps, offline database exports, full workbook extraction and the remaining outside-evidence gaps. These are candidate inputs; their presence does not establish Thai effective dates.
This reference follows recovery, EXP, monsters, drops and consumables from the international Alpha/Beta preludes through Thailand’s last pre-Renewal era. It supports the developer and player notes attached to each patch. Thai beta’s natural HP/SP recovery formulas remain unresolved. Original Thai operator guides now supply passive-skill tables, but their publication and effective dates are unknown. Historical formulas below are candidates or observations of particular emulator revisions, with their scope stated beside them.
The timeline ledger owns patch dates and Episode labels. A guide’s publication date, an archive capture, a scheduled maintenance and a confirmed deployment are different events. Content can arrive before or after its associated balance change. Thai-language coverage of an English or Korean server does not establish a Thai release.
Potions and recovery cards
The English Alpha guide, updated September 22, 2001, reports Red Potion at 30 zeny for 20–30 HP and Blue Potion at 1000 zeny for 50–60 SP, with potions weighing 5. These belong to the international Alpha observation, not Thai beta. The English Beta fix note reports an 8-zeny Milk price change on July 22, 2002.
Do not add a Red Potion change from 50 to 60 zeny based on the July 22 FAQ: section 3 explicitly uses that change as a hypothetical example of why client patching matters.
The Thai recovery-item guide captured December 13, 2003 instead lists:
| Item | Approximate recovery | Listed price in zeny | Listed weight |
|---|---|---|---|
| Red Potion | 30 HP | 50 | 10 |
| Orange Potion | 50 HP | 200 | 13 |
| Yellow Potion | 80 HP | 550 | 16 |
| White Potion | 120 HP | 1200 | 20 |
| Blue Potion | 40 SP | 5000 | 20 |
| Milk | 15 HP | 25 | 5 |
These approximate descriptions are not healing ranges, and listed prices do not establish stock at a particular NPC. The content may predate its capture. No synchronized server version, VIT/INT scaling or skill multiplier accompanies the table.
The neighboring card guide lists Sohee MaxSP +25%, Eggyra SP recovery +25% and Willow MaxSP +30. Their exact activation dates, complete effects and rounding remain unresolved. Card effect changes must be separated from card drop-rate changes.
Official iRO Juno notes describe reduced healing-item weights and monster/reward/loot changes. This is useful foreign comparison material, without a Thai effective date. Weight changes affect carrying capacity and the point at which regeneration stops; potion economics and recovery therefore need to be checked together.
