Stats and Effect Analysis
Astrid’s Elixir stops your Stamina from draining for 8 seconds. That’s too short to plan around: you have to drink it mid-fight, and in a boss fight your quick slot is better spent on healing food.
Once you have its formula, brew Astrid’s Greater Elixir instead: it uses exactly the same ingredients and it lasts longer.
Each version has its own Alchemy Formula. The other versions are Astrid’s Lesser Elixir and Astrid’s Greater Elixir.
