Vital Elixir
Consume · ConsumeGainStatusPoints4★A scarce elixir that permanently bumps up the drinker's Health. Pals get nothing out of it.
It feeds no other recipe, which makes it a terminal item: craft what you will actually carry and stop there.
Details
It stacks up to 9,999. At 264,000 gold it is worth real money to a merchant.
Vital Elixir Crafting Recipe
Crafting it takes 8 materials across 2 types, and the bottleneck is almost always the 6× requirement — line that up first and the rest follows.
Where to Find Vital Elixir
If you would rather just buy it, the seller is Medal Shop at 200 Dog Coin.
It also turns up in supply drops — best odds are the Desert drops at 20%, 1–2 per crate, with 5 other regions carrying it as well.
It also shows up as world loot — dungeon elixir stands in the Viking ruins.
To buy it for 200 Dog Coin, fast travel to the Isle of Silence Church Ruins point; the Medal Shop is right beside it. Spend coins here only when your Predator Core supply is empty, since crafting is cheaper while you still have cores and the coins buy stock you can't make yourself.

Using Vital Elixir Well
The recipe is already on the Electric Medicine Workbench (technology level 43), so there is no need to hold out for the Advanced Medicine Workbench; the Ancient Workbench makes it as well. Staff whichever one you use with a Medicine Production Pal. Materials are the real bottleneck: the six Life Lotus (L) come from field gathering and the two Predator Core drop only from Predator Pals, so bank both before starting a batch.
