Blue Protocol Star Resonance Alchemy Guide

Mixing potions in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance isn’t just about brewing pretty liquids. Alchemy is one of the key Life Skills that powers your healing, buffing, and cosmetic item creation. Here’s everything you need to know to level it efficiently, unlock its perks, and stop wasting materials.

Understanding Alchemy in Star Resonance

Alchemy is unlocked through the Life Skill menu once you complete the quest “About Alchemy.” The quest leads you to Maurice, your first Alchemy Mentor, who explains how to craft Serums, Conversion Potions, and other concoctions.

You’ll use the Alchemy Crafting Station to combine items from different Life Skills. Each recipe consumes Focus and materials like Element Crystal Shards or flowers. Higher-level recipes require specific talents to be unlocked first in the Life Skill Talent Tree.

How the Crafting System Works

Inside the Alchemy menu, you’ll find four key areas that control how you create items.

The recipe list shows all unlocked craftable items. Unlocking new talents adds more to this list.
The ingredient window displays which materials are needed for each potion.
The crafting section shows your output, Focus cost, and lets you set the craft amount.
The progress meter tells you how many items you can make before Focus runs dry.

Each recipe grants Life Skill experience and can be sped up later with Quick Alchemy and Ultra-Fast Alchemy nodes.

Experimenting With New Recipes

The Experiment tab is where you unlock new potion recipes. You’ll sacrifice items from your inventory to trigger discoveries.

Place eligible materials in the experiment slot.
Check the question mark icon to see potential recipes that can result from it.
Each attempt costs Focus and is limited daily.

Experimenting is random, so plan your Focus spending carefully. Some combinations will yield rare potion types tied to higher Alchemy levels.

Collecting Materials for Alchemy

Most Alchemy materials come from other Life Skills or monster drops. A few high-tier resources come from boxes or stores.

Element Crystal Shards

Used in most Serums and Drops. You can find them by:

Hunting open-world monsters and bosses
Opening Intermediate Material Boxes from chests or shops
Buying from the Chip Store using Luno (Bound)

Flowers and Pigments

Flowers are gathered through the Botany Life Skill and used for Healing Aromatics.
Derived Pigments come from the Gemology Life Skill, used to craft Dye Sprays.

Resource Tips

Save your Orb Store currency for rare gear upgrades instead of buying Shard boxes. Daily farming and Chip Store trades usually cover your Alchemy needs without wasting premium items.

Talent Tree and Recommended Unlock Order

The Alchemy Talent Tree upgrades your crafting speed, production output, and unlocks new potion tiers. The following unlock path is a solid choice for leveling early.

Alchemy Enhancement Lv.1
Element Knowledge Lv.1 or Conversion Potion Crafting
Wait for the server to reach 7 days uptime
Alchemy Enhancement Lv.2
Element Knowledge Lv.2
Quick Alchemy at Lv.5
Ultra-Fast Alchemy at Lv.15
Wait for 26 days uptime
Alchemy Enhancement Lv.3
Element Knowledge Lv.3

Once unlocked, your crafting becomes faster, and high-tier potions become available with better resource yield.

Best Practices for Efficient Alchemy

Focus on crafting potions that you’ll actually use in combat. Selling extras to vendors isn’t worth it.
Keep at least one character dedicated to Alchemy for faster leveling.
Always check for Alchemy-related events or weekly boosts before heavy crafting sessions.
Farm Crystal Shards from bosses and open-world monsters while progressing your other Life Skills.

Final Blurb

Alchemy in Blue Protocol: Star Resonance turns simple materials into powerful tools for battle and style. Once you understand the experiment system and unlock the right talents, crafting becomes a reliable part of your daily grind.

Invest a bit of Focus each day, and your potion supply will never run dry again.
