alde_alche (175, 107)

Once the player has finished registering, go downstairs to a star-shaped room. Head towards the second room on the right side wall to talk with Rasputin.

Rasputin will discuss ill-prepared Alchemists and then give a math oriented exam. This exam consists of two addition-subtraction questions, three multiplication-division questions, two questions pertaining to discount-overcharge, and three questions about the DEF and weight of certain items and armors. The player will need to answer 80% of the questions correctly to proceed.

• Bypassing: If the player has Job 50, they can skip this part of the exam. Go straight to step 4.

Math Questions:

13+25+37+48 = 123

12+23+34+45 = 114

1,000-58-214-416 = 312

1,000-36-227-348 = 389

14*17*3 = 714

12*24*3 = 864

10,530/3/5/2 = 351

9765/3/5/7 = 93

(35*19) - (1,792/7) = 409

(47*28) - (1376/4) = 972

(2,368/8) + (24*17) = 704

(2,646/7) + (13*28) = 742

Discount Questions:

Red Potion (12), Fly Wing (5) Butterfly Wing (1) = 909z

Red Potion (6), Green Potion (7) Fly Wing (8) = 798z

Green Potion (15), Magnifier (6), Trap (4) = 934z

Profit Questions:

• 5 Helms

  Standard price = 44,000z

  24% discount = 33,440z

  20% discount selling price = 35,200z

  Profit (35,200-33,440)*5 = 8,800z

• 4 Padded Armor

  Standard price = 48,000z

  24% discount = 36,480z

  20% discount selling price = 38,400

  Profit (38,400-36,480)*4 = 7,680z

• 3 Tights

  Standard price = 71,000

  24% discount = 53,960

  20% discount selling price = 56,800

  Profit (56,800-53,960)*3 = 8,520

Darwin
alde_alche.gat (13, 15)

After passing the quiz, head to the next room and talk with Darwin. He will explain the basics for creating potions.

• Bypassing: Giving an 'Illusion Flower' to Darwin (by first selecting the flower option when initially speaking to him) will send the player directly to the final NPC (Step 16) in honor of the bribe.

The player will need the following items for this part:

• 1 Red Herb
• 1 Yellow Herb
• 1 White Herb
• 3 Empty Bottles
• 3 Medicine Bowls (The 3 Medicine bowls can be bought upstairs from the male Alchemist NPC)

He will then ask questions regarding potion creation after he explains the process.

  

Van Helmont
alde_alche (79, 19)

Move to the next room to meet with Van Hellmont. It is not actually required that the player make counteragents or mixtures, the player just needs these items to do this part of the quest:

• 1 Alcohol
• 1 Detrimindextra
• 1 Karvodailnirol
• 2 Empty Bottles

With these items, head to Alberta Mansion (alberta 102,222) and go upstairs to the second room on the right (alberta_in 133,55). Talk to the NPC near the corner (Louitz) and he will tell the player to talk to Aure Dupon in Geffen. 

Go to Geffen and talk to the NPC (181,114) near the eastern Kafra, who will tell the player to talk to Morgenstein, the crazy scientist. Morgenstein (141,140) is located on the second floor of the Blacksmith Guild in southeast Geffen (181,62). 

Talk to the scientist to learn about Counteragents and Mixtures. It is suggested that the player also buy 5 Mini Furnaces while you are in the Blacksmith Guild for another part of the quest. The player can buy these on the first floor of the Blacksmith guild. 

Head back to Al de Baran to talk with Van Hellmont. He'll ask the player two questions pertaining what was just learned from the Dye quest. For reference:

Dye Quest
Counteragent	Detrimindextra (1) + Alcohol (1)
Mixture	Karvodailnirol (1) + Alcohol (1)

Once finished, talk to him again and he will give the player several items which are needed for the following part of the quest. DO NOT SELL OR STORE THE ITEMS

 

Nicholas will tell the player to go meet Bajin and Bain in Juno. Before heading out, make sure to have the following items along with the items from Nicholas:

• 5 Coal
• 5 Mini Furnaces
• 2000 Zeny

Head to Juno, and enter the building in the southwestern area (yuno 52, 105). Go upstairs to find two brothers. Give them all the items and they will attempt to make Gold.

Once the experiment is complete, head back to Al De Baran and talk with Nicholas again. This experiment fails most of the time and the player will receive a variety of items from iron ores to gold depending on luck.

After this go back to Nicholas and he will tell you to go upstairs. 

Vincent Carsciallo
