We got early access to the update, and in this Dead Rails HUGE Update: All OP Potions & Crafting Recipes guide, we’ll break down all four new potions, their effects, and how to craft them—including some lesser-known tricks that give you an edge. From explosive fire to healing elixirs, here’s everything you need to know.
Dead Rails HUGE Update: All OP Potions & Crafting Recipes
1. Devil Tears
Ingredients: Kerosene + Unicorn Blood
How to Craft: Pour kerosene and unicorn blood together on the ground, then bottle the mixture.
Effect: Highly flammable. Once ignited (using a torch or molotov), the fire spreads rapidly, engulfing large areas.
Pro Tip: This potion can grow large enough to destroy entire towns. Only players using the Arseness class are immune to the flames.
2. Primordial Soup
Ingredients: Milk + Unicorn Blood
Effect: Revives dead mobs to fight on your side—similar to the jade sword.
Best Use: Target strong enemies like werewolves or outlaws to build a powerful, loyal army.
Pro Tip: Great for solo players or anyone wanting to turn the enemy’s strength against them.
3. Holy Water
Ingredients: Water + Unicorn Blood
Effect: Deals damage to enemies when poured on the ground.
Note: Unlike throwable holy water from the Priest class or villages, this version does not summon lightning.
Pro Tip: Still useful, but better used strategically due to its limited damage area.
4. Angel’s Ears
Ingredients: Regular Blood + Unicorn Blood
How to Get Regular Blood: Bottle it from horses, outlaws, or mobs.
Effect: Rapid healing over time. Comparable to snake oil, but without a speed boost.
Pro Tip: Ideal for tanky builds or prolonged fights. Keep a few on hand for emergencies.
How to Get More Unicorn Blood
Unicorn blood is a key ingredient in all the potions. While you can harvest it directly from unicorns, there’s a clever trick: Strike any liquid with lightning to transform it into unicorn blood. The yield is small, but it’s a good backup if you’re short on supply.
