The Battle Potion is a buff potion which grants the Battle buff when consumed. The buff increases the spawn rate of both enemies and critters alike by 50%, and doubles the maximum amount of monsters that can be on-screen at once. The buff lasts for 7 minutes, but can be cancelled at any time by right-clicking the icon. This effect stacks with that of the Water Candle.

Notes

• Though Battle is a buff, it technically has a negative effect.
• Spawn rate effects like Battle Potions (and Water Candles) can be used to increase the spawn rates of events that do not have a set spawn rate, like the Blood Moon and Solar Eclipse.
  • This effect can be used to farm these events for rare drops, such as the Money Trough from the Blood Moon, Broken Hero Swords from the Solar Eclipse, and most items from the Pirate Invasion.
• Battle Potions and Water Candles can not be used to increase the spawn rates of events like the Pumpkin and Frost Moon. The spawn rates of these events override spawn rate effects.
• The Calming Potion has the opposite effect of the Battle Potion but as they're both potions, they're both considered buffs and as such can be canceled early. However, the Water Candle effect is classified as a debuff.
• The Battle Potion increases the spawn rates of NPCs, such as the bound Wizard, Skeleton Merchant and the bound Mechanic.
