Formula
Potions creation math is still disputed however, the following equation appears to be most accurate at the moment.
Success Rate = Lvl of Potion Research + Lvl of Prepare Potion * 3 + Job Lvl × 0.2 + DEX × 0.1 + LUK × 0.1 + INT × 0.05 + (Potion Rate %)
Potion Rate Potion +20% Red Potion, Yellow Potion, White Potion +10% Alcohol 0% Acid Bottle, Mine Bottle/Marine Sphere Bottle, Bottle Grenade, Plant Bottle -5% Blue Potion, Anodyne, Aloevera, Embryo, Elemental Potions -5% Slim Red Potion -7% Slim Yellow Potion -10% Slim White Potion, Glistening Coat
