How to Use Quicksilver

Quicksilver is a critical resource for upgrading your Bile Flasks. To do so, visit Nacimiento, an NPC located in the Desecrated Cistern beneath Albero. Follow these steps to upgrade:

1. Upgrade Requirements

Each upgrade consumes one Bile Flask and a specified amount of Quicksilver and Tears of Atonement. Here’s the cost breakdown for all five upgrades:

• Upgrade 1: 1x Quicksilver, 1x Bile Flask, 1,000 Tears.
• Upgrade 2: 1x Quicksilver, 1x Bile Flask, 3,000 Tears.
• Upgrade 3: 1x Quicksilver, 1x Bile Flask, 7,000 Tears.
• Upgrade 4: 1x Quicksilver, 1x Bile Flask, 12,000 Tears.
• Upgrade 5: 1x Quicksilver, 1x Bile Flask, 21,000 Tears.

2. Nacimiento’s Transformation

After the first three upgrades, Nacimiento will undergo a dramatic change, revealing the “Ancient One” protruding from his chest. Speak to him again to unlock the final two upgrades.

3. Final Outcome

Once all upgrades are complete, Nacimiento becomes a lifeless husk, and the Ancient One rests in the room. Your Bile Flasks will now be fully enhanced, significantly boosting their healing capabilities

Important: Upgrading your flask consumes one flask. So if you have eight available flasks after the upgrade it goes down to seven.

Tips for Efficient Quicksilver Collection

• Fast Travel: Unlock all travel points to save time between locations.
• Prepare for Challenges: Some areas require specific abilities or careful platforming.
• Upgrade Gradually: Focus on completing upgrades as you find Quicksilver to benefit from improved healing earlier.
