How to Unlock Potions in Halls of Torment

Using the Gatherer’s Charm, you can seek out different potion components across different levels. Gatherer’s Charm works when equipped by getting the item icon in the top-left corner, next to your level, with green indicators that act like a compass. In addition, you will need to Retrieve empty bottles that you gather as you play your runs, so you will be placed before a choice every run because you can save a bottle or an actual item. No matter what you do, it’s an investment for your future runs, and eventually, you’ll Retrieve everything you need. It’s a grindy game, and this is to be expected, it’s just a matter of what you want to prioritize.
