Additional Tips Related To The Fox Potion
By follow the recipe precisely, and with perfect timing (turning the Hourglass and stopping the simmering with precision), players can brew a stronger version of this potion called Henry's Fox Potion, which will increase Experience gained by 50%, reading speed by 80%, and will grant Charisma and Speech +7 for the next two days in in-game time.
The extra experience bonus also applies to Book Reading bonuses and to Trainer bonuses. To make the most out of all the reading material in the game, it is highly recommended that players have mastered the art of potion crafting and can craft at least the Strong Fox Potion before they sit to read any of the books in the game. That way, they can gain the maximum Scholarship experience.
Finally, it is also important to mention that the Reading Speed bonus that the Fox Potion grants stacks with the bonuses from being sitting in Henry's bed — and from having Leminger's Spectacles or Regular Spectacles equipped, reaching a whopping 150% reading speed. That makes reading a full book in two hours possible, and it saves lots of time, trouble, and resources (food/energy).
