While the basic Roborants already provide good recovery, it is better to save them in storage and use them to craft higher-level versions later on, such as Fine, Mighty, and Exquisite Roborants, which restore massive amounts of HP and Stamina.

Combine two different rotten food items.

If food ends up rotting in your inventory or storage, you can use it to craft more Lantern Oil without having to purchase it from vendors. Combining two different rotten foods, such as 1x Rotten Scrag of Beast and 1x Rotten Grape, will make 1x Lantern Oil.

Lanterns are essential when exploring dark dungeons and caves or traveling at night, so keeping a surplus of Lantern Oil ensures you always have enough fuel to light your way.

What to Do With Rotten Food

How to Craft:
Combine two Grandpetals.

If you fall asleep from a Harpy's song, you can use a Waking Powder from your inventory to wake yourself up and rejoin the fight. Waking Powder can be used even if asleep, so it is even more useful if you plan to play solo.

One Waking Powder is also required along with three Detoxifying Decoctions for Sebastian's safety in the House of the Blue Sunbright side quest.

Bunch of Flowers Gift

Bunch of FlowersBunch of Flowers A bunch of flowers, gorgeously arranged. When offered as a gift, it deepens the bond between giver and receiver.

They can be crafted by combining two flowers of different colors. Sunblooms, Noonblooms, and Moonglows can be found and crafted into this by combining any two, such as Sunbloom + Noonbloom to get the Bunch.

Furthermore, Bunch of Flowers is also a required item for The Gift of Giving side quest.
