IdleMMO Tools

Alchemy is a crafting skill: combine ingredients in a vial or crystal to brew potions, elixirs, and essences and earn Alchemy XP. Every brew consumes its inputs, so the real profit is what the potion sells for minus what its ingredients cost. The table below ranks each recipe by XP per hour and by NET gold per hour after material cost, so you can pick the best brew for either fast levels or real profit.

Per-level XP requirements are community-sourced estimates — IdleMMO does not publish an official XP curve, so treat action and time totals as close approximations, not exact figures.

The Materials column shows what each craft costs. Net profit (sale − materials) is shown only where a live market price exists for the output — crafted gear isn't meaningfully sold to vendors, so we show “—” rather than a misleading vendor-based loss. Live market pricing is coming to fill these in.
