The Lifeforce Potion is a buff potion that grants the Lifeforce buff when consumed. The buff increases the player's health capacity by up to 20% (see below for details). This lasts for 8 minutes, but can be canceled at any time by right-clicking the icon (Desktop version), by selecting the icon using Cycle Next/Previous Buff and then pressing Remove Buff (Console version), or by double-tapping the buff icon (Mobile version).

Notes

  • Lifeforce Potions can sometimes be found in Shadow Chests and Lihzahrd Chests, making it possible to obtain them in Pre-Hardmode.
  • If the player has used a total of 15 Life Crystals and 20 Life Fruits to upgrade their health capacity to the 500 point maximum, the Lifeforce Potion will temporarily boost the player's health capacity by +100, to a total of 600, the highest amount of health one can legitimately reach.
  • The Lifeforce Potion does not always increase the player's maximum health by exactly 20%. Instead, it grants +20 HP for every 100 HP of the player's maximum health.[1] For example, a player with 425 maximum health will be granted 505 maximum health rather than 510.

    • As the player's natural health regeneration rate is related to the maximum health, it will also slightly increase the player's regeneration rate.

    Tips

    • The Prismite can only be acquired by fishing in the Hallow. Though it can be caught at any depth, the player will have a greater chance to catch the Prismite if they fish on the surface, because only two special fish can be caught within the surface Hallow (the Prismite and the Princess Fish).
    • Using the Lifeforce Potion can greatly increase a player's chances of winning any major boss battle, especially in Expert Mode and Master Mode, since the player needs all the buffs and health they can get.

    History

    References

    1. ↑ Information taken from the Desktop version Desktop 1.4.4.9 source code, method UpdateBuffs() in Terraria.Player.cs. The formula used is maxLifeWithLifeforcePotion = maxLife + maxLife / 5 / 20 * 20. Because maxLife is an integer, the results of the two division operations are rounded down. Therefore, the actual formula is as follows: maxLifeWithLifeforcePotion = maxLife + ⌊⌊maxLife / 5⌋ / 20⌋ * 20.
