Just use the Tonic Types menu categories to make a green or blue background tonic. I believe that 5 green tonics will trigger a blue background formula, and 4 blue tonics will create a purple background formula, at least for the initial instance of the new formula. Once a new formula pops up, you do not need to make the lower level tonic anymore (unless you're doing this because you need to replenish a lower level one). Wasting reagents is what leads to frustration in the game. The Tonic Types menu shows you in real time that you have unlocked a new formula.
@randy2058 im still confused i wasted sooooo much material thinking that a purple would unlock. It's like you don't all that time consuming grinding for nothing. I dony like this system at all. Not to mention it wasn't even working properly
Thank you for the guide, helpful as always since Bungie never explains what needs to be done. Here we are again tho, another tedious exercise we've done over and over again. It's like they're trying to make us quit. At least onslaught is pretty good.
When doing the taste test, I have been turned into a chicken as well as a toad (just like Captain Jacobson). Does anyone know if using a tonic during gameplay increases the amount of reagent materials earned from that specific activity?
As soon as I had to make 'tonics' I was like WTAF????? Why oh why in a gun game am I running around a room brewing buffs. I want to fight bad guys and earn loot. As in a LOOTER SHOOTER!!!!! Im surprised we dont have to brew crystal Meth for the devs as they have clearly been on it thinking the community wanted this trash. Cookies at Christmas is bad enough. Master Bakers. I ACTUALLY feel sorry for Ebontis having to explain this nonsense.
@@GillmanStudio it's a completely optional system, no one is forcing you to participate. If you want "fight bad guys and earn loot" then just go do that 😂😂
How do you discover the green tonics you are missing in the first place? It's pretty straight forward to level them up to purple ones but no guide on how to make new green ones you dont have.
Who else is expiring that the tonic types menu is bugged and not appearing after finishing all quests? I am stuck at 7 receipts and can't unlock new ones... Bungie at its best....
Um.. I think you have to make each green tonic five times to unlock the blue version. ...seems like that's how it's working so far. I'll run all three Characters (Warlock, Titan, Hunter) through Act I to help me gather Materials faster (and in a less boring way).
Hey E, still on the fence of whether to buy this episode, would you say the values there or should I wait? I'd also have to buy the dungeon key as well.
Theirs a Triumph for making Tonics in week 1, craft as many as you can. Earn re-agents from 50 level onslaught underlight at Eventide in Europa. The enemies say 2030 but their 2010. I completed it matchmade level 2002.
As this episode unfolded, all I could think to myself was: "Really, Bungie? This is the best you can do? WTF has this to do with the lesbo robot and her raggedy band of Vex?"
Remove the tonic system... Remove the back and forth speaking to different vendors.. remove all-time gated missions remove all restrictions on guardian rank that way free to play players are able to modify their character and feel at least like they can keep up with the rest of the group there is nothing to do for a free player.. there's not even a campaign for a free player
I wish someone could explain to me why in Act 1 I got a tonic machine upgrade only on my warlock that fit in the first spot on top far left of the machine. Then In Act 2 I recieved the second upgrade on all three of my characters that went in the spot on the top right next to the machine. So my warlock added 2 upgrades and my Hunter and Titan only added the most recent one and are missing the first one
Thanks for the information. Since we have three Kells active in the episodes, I guess the Kell of Kell's fall could be any one of the three, or all of them?
Ya but for some of the other categories it’s even less clear how to unlock some of the tonics. I have all those unlocked but the onslaught tonics are harder to get.
They really don't know how to guide you through this mess. They expect players to watch videos. I wanna play the game not have yo watch vids to play the game
I played 1 hour after reset then quit..to much to do in one hour I was only able to get 1 sep done so I turned it off..my UA-cam video shows I was confused jus trying to figure out what to do..I got bored just quit playing destiny 2
And again the free players..the artifact is useless if they don't have season weapons for traits..the first week of season challenges.. only pertain to seasonal events....not 1 season challenge for a new free player..seals like the 10th anniversary is only obtained if you buy the season pass..can't reach guardian rank 8 unless you purchase the season pass
Yup . Another season down the drain.. one more season of disappointed players. We had onslaught.. jus plain stupidity.. if this is the a.i writing seasons or if Bungie jus don't care. Nobody wants to be grinding...we jus want to play. Sheesh.. Bungie you're killing me and the game destiny.. didn't play last season..won't play this season.. streamers speak up .we hear it in your voice the disappointed player we just want to play..no more of this bs period!!
@@bruce_leon1044 dude are you the nurse here. You help people with destiny rage. People who pay for something like they want your input..no. I think your jus looking for a reason to run your trap..get a clue read between the lines (.l.) read a different post .or smile Bruce I think you just want attention so here's to another day of destiny for dummies.. sheesh
Bubgie is so lazy with so much stuff. They have zero testers so seasonal play. And it shows. It's so annoying. And kills this game for so many people. My clan is all gone now. 4years ago we had 20 close members.
These crafting events are always unintentionally cryptic and it's so fking annoying, it's never explained well and the UI is as terrible as always. I've been playing since the beta and you would think after 10 years that they would have figured this out by now. I had got my hopes up with Into the Light because the weapon focusing and the track to super black was actually easy to follow and you didn't need to watch 2 hours of youtube guides 🤦
I guarantee you that the SAME person/people who came up with Lightfall, Card decks, season of the plunder, and this are the same people. Jfc leads, SAY NO JUST ONCE!!!
This is insane… Eido keep your tonics pal… do we need to unlock all of these tonics in order to get a certain quest or anything else??? God have mercy…
Another boring and tedious episode only 29000 people on steam this game is so dead... No one don't care about this game no more by frontiers this gamer be truly dead
I've watched 3 videos explaining all of this.. I kept yours for last on purpose, You ALWAYS explain this better than any other video!!!!!
Thanks for the info, everyone else is kinda confusing, as usual.

@@princealbert357 I'm not sure what you're confused about. But, I would be happy to help you.
Jeepers, how complicated and obscure can bungie make it?
It’s actually not complicated, nor obscure.
The word you’re looking for is “obtuse”, and I agree with you on that.
@@BahamutBreaker No obscure is exactly the correct term.
Absolute shite n' onions......
Yes
@BahamutBreaker actually obtuse describes bungies' understanding what the player base wants.
5 green = unlock blue
4 blue = unlock purple recipes
Cheers 🍻
? 4 green unlock blue and 5 blue unlock purple. That's what worked for me
Why.. 6 Green for blue... and neuer purpel. I hate this season. Grind for nothing
Great video, hate the tonics system
Always appreciate your guides! Thank you!
My pleasure!
Thank you Ebontis for the easy to follow guides you create.
Thank you for the guide, helpful as always since Bungie never explains what needs to be done.
Here we are again tho, another tedious exercise we've done over and over again. It's like they're trying to make us quit. At least onslaught is pretty good.
Where do the tonic recipes come from. I am stuck on 8
When doing the taste test, I have been turned into a chicken as well as a toad (just like Captain Jacobson).
Does anyone know if using a tonic during gameplay increases the amount of reagent materials earned from that specific activity?
think Bungie thinks we all play this game 24/7 after 10 years of playing this game I'm out
I need a lot of volotile flakes..whete do i go to fsrm?
Thank-you for the more in-depth explaination of this. I really couldn't figure out how to progress these just from making them.
As soon as I had to make 'tonics' I was like WTAF????? Why oh why in a gun game am I running around a room brewing buffs. I want to fight bad guys and earn loot. As in a LOOTER SHOOTER!!!!!

Anyone else experiencing issues in the menus in PS?
It’s on Xbox too
Yep
on PC as well
I can't even use the dismantled walker for the tonics so I'm completely stuck

The purple ones drop randomly. I was playing Gambit, Crucible and Strikes and one dropped for me every so often.
Thanks for a great stream. You are always so helpful. I watch your videos for the clear descriptions!
Glad you like them!
I need to know how you can unlock shadestalker tonics please. I am desperate.
Thanks for the guide…. It was NEEDED !

Fieldwork? More like busy work am I right?

As always waiting for your guide! Thanks!
So how do i get shadestalker toni unlocked cus ive crafted a ton done all the missions still locked
"Finish 15 guys is crazy." Preciate the info. Savor the comment.
The tonics won't show up on my screen so I'm restarting but if you can help I would appreciate it
First video that made this nonsense make any sense so thankyou
How do you unlock the shadestalker tonics, I have everything unlocked apart from that
I can't get volatile flake.....pissed!!!!!!1
It takes two or more Onslaught runs to get it. Very annoying feature of the game.
I have no access to onslaught or the tonic table. Don’t have the act 1 fieldwork tab
Remove the tonic system... Remove the back and forth speaking to different vendors.. remove all-time gated missions remove all restrictions on guardian rank that way free to play players are able to modify their character and feel at least like they can keep up with the rest of the group there is nothing to do for a free player.. there's not even a campaign for a free player
anyone know how to unlock the shadestalker recipes? I cant unlock any of them
Any problems getting to the directory button?
I remember when bungie would put fun secrets in social spaces.
I wish someone could explain to me why in Act 1 I got a tonic machine upgrade only on my warlock that fit in the first spot on top far left of the machine. Then In Act 2 I recieved the second upgrade on all three of my characters that went in the spot on the top right next to the machine. So my warlock added 2 upgrades and my Hunter and Titan only added the most recent one and are missing the first one
I only have 7 i been doing missions to get others and no luck
I think it’s time gated
@@icey984 I have 17 unlocked so you can get at least that much
onslaught literally gives you a lot of what you need. do the 2030 onslaught salvation
@@icey984I’m with you. My tonic table doesn’t look like his either
@@SSJLust95 it’s not getting the material that’s the problem. That’s what were saying
Just went through this making smoothies in Zelda
Thanks for the information. Since we have three Kells active in the episodes, I guess the Kell of Kell's fall could be any one of the three, or all of them?
Yeah I could honestly see any of them going down at the end of the episode.
I need enriching nugget I can’t get any 😢
Is this thing bugged?
Ya but for some of the other categories it’s even less clear how to unlock some of the tonics. I have all those unlocked but the onslaught tonics are harder to get.
Nice vid man. Thank you
I hate this tonic crap
Oh my lord me too. It’s so convoluted and so unclear. 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
Same here absolute bullshit whoever came up with this must be chronically online in this game 24/7 no lifer
Bungie do y make any of this clear at all.
Sheesh you must have sore wrists after quickly finishing 15 guys 🤣🤣
Alright, this got a legit chuckle out of me. Didn't even think of it while i was recording.
Thanks for the video
This is so dumb this season sucks already
That's frog for Bullshit Bungie
Bungie is making it more and more difficult to play.
"You must stand on 1 hand, whistle Dixie and juggle 3 pins with your feet"..
Thanks man
I can't progress unlocking recipes, so can't progress this season, it sucks.
How wish you did do yet?

Who thought this make a tonic crap up. Just more garbage to do.
This is Bungie's idea of a "game"?????? Are they effing kidding??????
And again the free players..the artifact is useless if they don't have season weapons for traits..the first week of season challenges.. only pertain to seasonal events....not 1 season challenge for a new free player..seals like the 10th anniversary is only obtained if you buy the season pass..can't reach guardian rank 8 unless you purchase the season pass
