Drinking & Getting Drunk

Brewing is only half the fun — drinking has real effects.

Getting drunk

Alcoholic brews raise your drunkenness, and stronger drinks raise it faster:

• Your screen stumbles and wobbles as you walk.
• Your chat gets slurred — and so do private messages.
• Drink too much and you will throw up, and the very drunk may be unable to log back in until they sober up.

Effects

Many brews carry potion effects, good or bad — coffee gives a speed boost, fire whiskey warms you, and absinthe is genuinely poisonous. Check a recipe before downing a bottle.

Sobering up

• Eat bread or drink milk to bring your drunkenness down quickly.
• Otherwise it wears off on its own over time, and heavy sessions leave a lingering hangover.

It is all part of the roleplay — but pace yourself, especially before a big build or a dragon run.
