I'm playing an evil witch with the Cauldron Hex who enjoys making attack potions and plotting clever ways to make opponents drink them, much in the way a poisoner would.
My question is, if I make a potion of say... Blindness, a level 2 spell on the witch's list, what would be the DC of the fortitude save for the drinker to avoid being permanently blind?
I've looked all over and haven't had any luck.
(btw, She is now level 4, with 21 INT.)
DC 10+Spell Level+Spell Ability Modifier. So 10+2+5= DC 17
That's what I've been going with so far. It would make sense that the potency of my character's potions would improve as she becomes more Intelligent and powerful.
Still, I'm hoping for a rule or perhaps an FAQ update. I'm surprised this hasn't been addressed in the books.
Cao Phen is correct, the DC is normal rules to calculate any spell DC.
10 + Spell Level + Ability Modifier = Spell DC
There isn't a need for a rule or FAQ update, unless you forgot to post another question.
You can create magic potions.
Prerequisite: Caster level 3rd.
Benefit: You can create a potion of any 3rd-level or lower spell that you know and that targets one or more creatures or objects. Brewing a potion takes 2 hours if its base price is 250 gp or less, otherwise brewing a potion takes 1 day for each 1,000 gp in its base price. When you create a potion, you set the caster level, which must be sufficient to cast the spell in question and no higher than your own level. To brew a potion, you must use up raw materials costing one half this base price.
When you create a potion, you make any choices that you would normally make when casting the spell. Whoever drinks the potion is the target of the spell.
If your question was if your potion of Blindness/Deafness you would need to choose what effect you were brewing for the potion. Now if your question is why there is not text in these feats for the DC for potions you make that is a valid question and I'm wondering that myself. Oddly enough I can't seem to find the relevant text to find the DC of potions, however it's almost universally accepted that the DC is as Cao Phen.
