Wind Blade Potion
D Tier6 Magic
Early
Your first real spell target. Wind Blade is cheap to brew, easy to refine early, and mostly there to help you get moving before better farming spells open up.

All Wizard Alchemy potions
Rock Blast Potion
D Tier8 Magic
Early
A simple starter option when your materials are still weak. Rock Blast is fine for learning the Magic threshold system, then gets replaced once stronger damage spells are reachable.
Ice Spike Potion
D Tier10 Magic
Early
An easy early Ice spell. Ice Spike is useful while you are testing early recipes, but it is more of a stepping stone than a spell to invest in long term.
Thunder Strike Potion
C Tier30 Magic
Mid
The first New Mainland Thunder spell target. Thunder Strike opens the New Mainland potion ladder at 30 Magic before the heavier orc and lava-route spells.
Lithe Potion
C Tier40 Magic
Mid
A movement pick for players who want easier kiting. Lithe can make fights feel smoother, but it will not carry farming once damage starts mattering more.
Wood Splinter Potion
C Tier40 Magic
Mid
A Common New Mainland wood spell at 40 Magic. Wood Splinter sits at the same threshold as Lithe but belongs to the New Mainland potion pool.
Fire Arrow Potion
C Tier45 Magic
Mid
A straightforward midgame Fire spell. Fire Arrow is worth using while you climb toward stronger Magic totals, then usually gives way to harder-hitting options.
Earth Shield Potion
D Tier48 Magic
Mid
A defensive Earth option that helps early, then feels limited by range. Keep it only while your material pool cannot support cleaner farming spells.
Ice Turtle Potion
D Tier52 Magic
Mid
A survival-flavored Ice spell with an awkward tradeoff. Ice Turtle can help in a pinch, but most players move on once farming speed becomes the priority.
Twisting Potion
B Tier60 Magic
High
An Uncommon New Mainland spell at 60 Magic. Twisting bridges the lower New Mainland recipes and the stronger 80-plus Magic targets.
Tornado Potion
A Tier70 Magic
High
One of the first spells that really feels good for farming. Tornado earns its spot because the cooldown is short enough to keep fights moving.
Meteorite Potion
B Tier74 Magic
High
A bigger hit than many midgame spells, with a cooldown that keeps it from feeling as smooth. Meteorite is good, but it can feel slower than Tornado in repeat farming.
Earth Spike Potion
C Tier77 Magic
High
A usable Earth spell when it is the best threshold you can reach. Earth Spike works as filler, though it is rarely the potion you chase first.
Frost Thorns Potion
S Tier80 Magic
High
A top farming target and one of the cleanest spells to build around. Frost Thorns is worth chasing because the damage, cooldown, and range all line up well.
Twin Currents Potion
B Tier80 Magic
High
An Uncommon New Mainland water-themed spell at 80 Magic. Twin Currents sits beside Frost Thorns in threshold planning but belongs to the New Mainland set.
Dragon Breath Potion
S Tier99 Magic
End
A late-game Fire spell with serious damage. Dragon Breath is worth the material grind if you can reach the threshold and are ready to refine one strong spell.
Lotus Bloom Potion
B Tier100 Magic
End
A high-Magic spell that looks tempting but plays less smoothly than the top picks. Lotus Bloom can work, but the animation and cooldown make it lower priority.
Radiant Sword Potion
A Tier105 Magic
End
A strong late-game Light spell with good burst value. Radiant Sword is worth considering once you can reliably hit the 105 Magic breakpoint.
Wood Thorn Potion
A Tier105 Magic
End
A Rare New Mainland spell at 105 Magic. Wood Thorn is one of the first New Mainland recipes that asks for a serious material route.
Thunder Ball Potion
A Tier112 Magic
End
A Rare New Mainland Thunder spell at 112 Magic. Thunder Ball becomes relevant once New Mainland materials push your total beyond older endgame thresholds.
Bolide Potion
A Tier128 Magic
End
A Rare New Mainland Fire spell at 128 Magic. Bolide is listed with Fiendish Demon compatibility, making it a natural fire-build target.
Night Wraith Potion
S Tier129 Magic
End
The endgame chase spell. Night Wraith has the highest ceiling in the current data, but the Magic requirement and refinement grind make it a serious commitment.
Thunder Revenge Potion
S Tier150 Magic
End
An Epic New Mainland Thunder spell at 150 Magic. Thunder Revenge is one of the clearer late New Mainland chase spells.
Incendines Potion
S Tier160 Magic
End
An Epic New Mainland Fire spell at 160 Magic. Incendines is listed with Fiendish Demon compatibility and fits fire-focused New Mainland builds.
Molten Core Potion
S Tier180 Magic
End
A Legendary New Mainland Fire spell at 180 Magic. Molten Core is one of the highest New Mainland potion thresholds and is listed with Fiendish Demon compatibility.
Solar Flare Potion
S Tier200 Magic
End
A Legendary New Mainland spell listed at 200 Magic with an additional potion quest requirement. Solar Flare should be treated as a late New Mainland unlock.

How Wizard Alchemy potion Magic works
Wizard Alchemy potion brewing is driven by the total Magic value of the materials you put into the Alchemy Table. The current range starts at Wind Blade Potion with 6 Magic and reaches Solar Flare Potion with 200Magic.
Use the table as a threshold planner. If your materials cannot reach the next Magic breakpoint, farm stronger drops first. If you can already hit the breakpoint, use the guide tier and ranking note to decide whether the potion is worth refining.

Potion progression route
Early brewing
Start with the low Magic potions at 6, 8 and 10 Magic. They are easy to reach with basic materials and help you learn the brewing threshold system.
Midgame farming
The 40 to 80 Magic range contains 11 current potions, including useful farming spells such as Tornado and Frost Thorns.
Endgame spells
Dragon Breath, Lotus Bloom, Radiant Sword and Night Wraith require high Magic totals, so Furnace Core and other stronger materials matter more at this stage.
Brewing mechanics deep dive
Three brewing rules decide most of your damage scaling, but the game does not surface them in any tooltip.
Refinement
60 copies to reach SSS
The refinement path is Normal to S, then four S-grade potions for one SS, then five SS-grade potions for one SSS. A fully guaranteed SSS brew takes 60 total copies of the same potion.
Bloxinsider advice: pick one solid potion to refine first rather than spreading yourself thin across multiple spells.
Element Shards
0 Magic, +50% element chance
Ice Shard, Fire Shard and Earth Shard contribute zero Magic score but boost your chances of landing a spell of that element by 50%.
Only use one Elemental Shard per brew. Using more does nothing extra and wastes a material slot.
Pitfalls
Overshooting into the next tier
If your total Magic overshoots into the range of the next potion in line, your chances of getting the one you want actually drop. Aim at the exact threshold rather than padding the total.
Cooldown matters too: Tornado outperforms Lotus Bloom and Meteorite in most farming scenarios simply because of its cooldown.
