Basic Information

Icon	Name	Effect	No. Held	Stored	Usage Type	Note
	Blue Elixir	Harder to detect by enemies [30 seconds]	- / 10	- / 99	Finite	Liquid medicine that makes still bodies undetectable

Blue Elixir ❘ 青い秘薬	Consumable

In-Game Description Dubious liquid medicine used in strange experiments conducted by high ministers of the Healing Church. A type of anesthetic that numbs the brain. Hunters, able to retain consciousness by force of will, make use of a secondary effect of the medicine, which dilutes their presence while standing still. Note 1: The same in-game description in US & UK versions. ✓ Note 2: Original Japanese text on Original Japanese Item Index page. ✓ Effects Drinking a Blue Elixir will render your character partially transparent for 30 seconds. During this time, it is harder for most enemies to see you. What this means is that you can get closer to them before they notice you and attack. Note that this only applies to your visual presence; the enemy can still hear you! If you run, fight, or do anything that makes a lot of sound, the enemy can still find you. Blue Elixirs are very powerful against ranged enemies; they're usually far enough away that they can't hear you, so using an elixir will allow you to cover dangerous open ground quickly and sneak up on them. Huntsmen using rifles and Lost Giant Children are two examples. They also work against Wandering Nightmares, which is fantastic since they tend to run away as soon as they see you. Nightmare Frontier is one area where Blue Elixirs truly shine; they'll keep you hidden from the Lost Giant Children and let you capture Bloodstone Shards from the Wandering Nightmares. You'll find four in the Forbidden Woods; it's worth saving them for Nightmare Frontier! Don't underestimate the effect of the elixirs in PvP; if you intend to hide, it can really help. If you stand in the right spot and use a Blue Elixir, your enemy might just walk right by... Self Buff Limitation: Just as you can apply only one buff for the weapons, you cannot have more than one self buff active at the same time. Only exception is Beasthood generated by the Beast Claw. Therefore you can't combine effects of the items such as Arcane Items Messenger's Gift and Old Hunter Bone. Consumables Beast Blood Pellet, Blue Elixir, Lead Elixir and even special blood vials with self buff effect like Blood of Adeline, Blood of Adella, Blood of Arianna. So beware when going into the fight that you can't use two of before mentioned items and "cannot use" animation will be performed when trying so which can cost you the fight.
