How to Use Maxima and Edurus Potions Simultaneously:

Simultaneous Potion Use

The key is rapid selection and use from the tool wheel:

  1. Access the Tool Wheel: Hold down L1/LB to open the Tool Wheel.
  2. Equip the First Potion: Select a potion (Maxima or Edurus) and release L1/LB to equip it.
  3. Drink the First Potion: Press L1/LB (do not hold).
  4. Equip the Second Potion: Immediately after the first potion's effect activates, repeat steps 2 and 3 with the second potion.
  5. Completion: The game registers the simultaneous activation of both potions, fulfilling the quest requirement.

Potion Ingredients:

  • Edurus Potion: Made with Mongrel Fur and Ashwinder Eggs. Provides 20 seconds of enhanced defense.
  • Maxima Potion: Crafted with Spider Fangs and Leech Juice. Boosts spell damage for 30 seconds.

This method ensures both potions are active concurrently, completing Professor Sharp's Assignment 1 and unlocking the Depulso spell. Separate guides detail potion crafting and ingredient locations.
