Water is great, drink lots of it, but sometimes it can get a little… repetitive. Dull even. If you find yourself in that situation then don’t fall to despair, because there’s a solution: Infusions.
Due to some cataclysmic nonsense on the continent, water on Ashenfall is infected with some sort of taint or corruption. Boiling the water seems to remove this imperfection somehow, but it also allows you the opportunity to spice up your drinks.
Adding certain things to water as you boil it, such as berries, bones or even antlers, will provide additional benefits. Fruity infusions are more hydrating, filling your Hydration meter faster. Certain animal parts may also provide other benefits, such as improved battle prowess or more efficient dodging.
Try experimenting with different infusions to create drinks more tailored to your playstyle.
