How to Make Super Restore in OSRS A Step-by-Step Guide

Fellow RuneScape adventurers! If you’re deep into Old School RuneScape (OSRS) like me, you know how clutch a Super Restore potion can be. Whether you’re battling a tough boss, grinding Slayer tasks, or just trying to keep your Prayer points topped up, this potion is a lifesaver. I’ve been playing OSRS for years, and I can’t tell you how many times a Super Restore has pulled me through a hairy situation—like that one time I barely survived a brutal Vorkath fight because I had one in my inventory. So, how do you make this game-changing potion? Let’s dive into it with a conversational guide that’s packed with tips, personal stories, and everything you need to craft Super Restores like a pro.

Super Restores are one of the most versatile potions in OSRS. Unlike regular Restore potions, they restore more than just your stats—they also bring back your Prayer points, which is huge for prolonged fights or quests like Monkey Madness II. I remember my first time tackling the Fight Caves; I was sweating bullets, and my Super Restores kept my Prayer up so I could tank Jad’s hits. Without them, I’d have been toast.

So, why should you care about making Super Restores?

• They restore all stats (except Hitpoints) reduced by things like poison or stat-draining attacks.

• They give back 25% of your Prayer points + 10, which is clutch for Prayer-heavy activities.

• They’re tradeable, so you can make some decent gold by selling them on the Grand Exchange.

Have you ever run out of Prayer points mid-boss fight? Trust me, it’s not fun. That’s why I always keep a few Super Restores handy.

Gathering Ingredients for Super Restore Potions

To make a Super Restore, you need two main ingredients: a Snapdragon and a Red Spider’s Eggs. Sounds simple, right? Well, it can be a bit of a grind, so let me break it down for you.

Getting Snapdragons

Snapdragons are the primary herb you’ll need, and they’re not exactly cheap. You can get them in a few ways:

• Farming: This is my go-to method. If you’ve got a decent Farming level (62 required to grow Snapdragons), you can plant Snapdragon seeds in herb patches. I usually hit up the patches in Catherby and Ardougne. Pro tip: use Ultracompost to boost your yield and protect your herbs.

• Monster Drops: Some monsters, like Aberrant Spectres or Cave Horrors, drop Snapdragon herbs. I’ve spent hours grinding Spectres in the Slayer Tower for these, and it’s not a bad way to mix Slayer training with herb collecting.

• Buying from the Grand Exchange: If you’re flush with gold, just buy Snapdragons off the GE. They usually cost around 8-10k each, depending on the market.

Ever tried Farming for Snapdragons? It’s super satisfying watching those herbs grow, especially when you get a big harvest!

Collecting Red Spider’s Eggs

The secondary ingredient, Red Spider’s Eggs, can be a bit trickier to get your hands on. Here’s how I do it:

• Edgeville Dungeon: There’s a spot in the Wilderness part of the dungeon with two spawns for Red Spider’s Eggs. It’s risky because of PKers, but I’ve had decent luck running in, grabbing eggs, and banking in Edgeville.

• Forthos Dungeon: This is safer and my preferred spot. The red spiders here drop eggs like candy, and you don’t have to worry about getting PKed. I once spent an afternoon here and walked away with over 200 eggs!

• Grand Exchange: If you’re not into gathering, you can buy eggs for about 500-600 gold each. Not too pricey, but it adds up if you’re making potions in bulk.

Quick tip: Bring a teleport tab if you’re hitting Edgeville Dungeon. You don’t want to get caught by a PKer with a full inventory of eggs!

Required Herblore Level

To make Super Restores, you need a Herblore level of 63. If you’re not there yet, don’t worry—I wasn’t either when I started. I grinded out Herblore by making Prayer potions and Energy potions. It’s tedious, but totally worth it when you can churn out Super Restores.

Step-by-Step Guide to Making Super Restores

Alright, you’ve got your ingredients. Now, let’s get to the fun part—actually making the potion. Here’s how I do it, step by step.

Step 1: Clean Your Snapdragon

First, you need to clean your Snapdragon herb to make it usable. Just click on the Grimy Snapdragon in your inventory, and it’ll turn into a Clean Snapdragon. You’ll need a Herblore level of 59 to clean it, but since you need 63 for the potion, you’re already good. I always clean my herbs in bulk while watching a show—it’s mindless but gets the job done.

Step 2: Make an Unfinished Potion

Next, grab a Vial of Water (you can buy these dirt cheap on the GE or fill vials at a fountain). Combine the Clean Snapdragon with the Vial of Water to create a Snapdragon Potion (unf). This is the base for your Super Restore. I usually make a full inventory of these before moving to the next step to save time.

Step 3: Add Red Spider’s Eggs

Now, take your Snapdragon Potion (unf) and add those Red Spider’s Eggs. Boom—you’ve got a Super Restore (3), which gives you three doses. If you want a four-dose potion, you’ll need to combine two Super Restore (3)s or use a special method (more on that later).

Step 4: Maximize Efficiency

To make the process faster, I like to bank at the Grand Exchange and use the Herblore Cape (if you’ve got 99 Herblore, which I’m still chasing). The cape lets you make potions a bit quicker. Also, consider using the Portable Well from Treasure Hunter—it gives a 10% XP boost and a chance to make extra potions. I’ve saved so much gold this way!

Tips for Making Super Restores Efficiently

Let’s talk about how to make this process as smooth as possible. I’ve learned a few tricks over the years that have saved me time and gold.

Use the Right Gear and Perks

• Botanical Pie: This bad boy boosts your Herblore by 4 levels. I always eat one if I’m close to a level requirement—it’s a game-changer.

• Herblore Outfit: If you’ve got the Herblore outfit from Stealing Creation, it gives a 6% XP boost. I snagged mine after hours of grinding, and it’s been worth every minute.

• Amylase Crystals: If you’re making potions in bulk, use Amylase Crystals to create Stamina Potions alongside Super Restores. It’s a great way to mix things up and keep your energy up while skilling.

Best Places to Make Potions

I usually set up shop at the Grand Exchange because it’s close to a bank, and I can buy ingredients on the spot. If you’re a low-level player, try Lumbridge bank—it’s safe and has a handy bank chest. Have you found a favorite spot for Herblore training? I’d love to hear about it!

Making Four-Dose Potions

If you want Super Restore (4) potions, you’ve got two options:

1. Combine two Super Restore (3)s in your inventory.

2. Use a Crystal Flask with a Potion Flask recipe, which requires 89 Herblore. I haven’t hit that level yet, but I’ve seen high-level players swear by it for max efficiency.

Here’s a quick table to compare the two methods:

Method	Herblore Level	Cost	Doses Created
Combine Super Restore (3)	63	~500-600 gold (eggs)	4 doses
Crystal Flask	89	Higher (flasks cost more)	4 doses

Selling Super Restores for Profit

One of my favorite parts about making Super Restores is the gold you can make. These potions sell like hotcakes on the Grand Exchange because they’re so useful. Last month, I made a cool 500k profit by crafting and selling about 100 Super Restore (3)s. Here’s how to maximize your profits:

• Check GE Prices: Before you start, look at the price of Snapdragons, Red Spider’s Eggs, and Super Restores. If the margins are tight, consider waiting for a better market.

• Craft in Bulk: Making 100+ potions at once saves time and lets you sell in larger batches.

• Use Portable Wells: That extra potion chance can really boost your profits.

Ever sold potions for profit? It’s such a rush watching the gold stack up!

Common Mistakes to Avoid

I’ve messed up plenty of times while making Super Restores, so let me save you some headaches.

• Forgetting to Clean Herbs: I once tried to make potions with Grimy Snapdragons and wondered why it wasn’t working. Facepalm moment!

• Not Checking Prices: I lost 50k once because I didn’t check the GE prices and sold my potions at a loss. Always double-check.

• Running Out of Vials: Stock up on Vials of Water before you start. Nothing’s worse than pausing your grind to run to the GE.

What’s the dumbest mistake you’ve made in OSRS? We’ve all got a story!

Final Thoughts

Making Super Restore potions in OSRS is a skill that’s worth mastering. Not only do they keep you alive in tough fights, but they’re also a solid way to make some extra gold. From grinding Red Spider’s Eggs in Forthos Dungeon to planting Snapdragons in Catherby, I’ve had a blast figuring out the best ways to craft these potions.
