Herblore is used to make potions that grant bonuses to various skills and combat actions. A single potion has multiple charges and will not be consumed until all the charges are depleted. Potions must first be equipped for use, with each skill having its own potion slot, accessible by selecting the potion icon at the top right of the game screen while on the respective skill page the potion is used in. The automatic re-use of potions can be enabled through the potion menu.

Potion Tiers
New tiers of potions are unlocked at certain
levels. Once a tier has been unlocked, new potions brewed will automatically be made at that tier. If you somehow miss a tier, any tier of potion can be obtained through the use of 
Herblore Potions. All tiers of a potion cost the same materials and reward the same experience, providing additional charges and/or more potent effects as the tier increases.
Potions in the bank can be upgraded to the next tier once the player has the appropriate
level at a 3:1 ratio. For example, a player with
can convert three Melee Accuracy Potion Is into one 
Melee Accuracy Potion II.

Skill Boosts
Skill boosts are special enhancements that improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the player's skills. These boosts can come from a variety of sources such as equipment, potions, pets, and masteries. Global boosts are boosts which apply across all skills. A boost can be assumed to be for the listed skill only, unless specifically stated it is a global boost. Boosts help the player to progress faster and achieve higher levels of mastery in each skill. The following are some common types of skill boosts and what they do:
- Increased Skill XP: Increases the amount of experience points (XP) gained.
- Decreased Skill Interval: Reduces the time it takes to complete skilling actions, allowing the player to perform more actions in a given period.
- Preservation Chance: Increases the likelihood that resources or items used during skill actions are not consumed.
- Increased Chance to Double Items: Gives a higher chance of receiving double the items or resources when performing skill-related actions.
- Increased Mastery XP: Enhances the rate at which mastery XP is gained for a skill.
For more information on general skill boosts that apply to all skills, refer to the Skill Boosts page.
