@JeremyECrawford Are Potions of Healing Magic or Mundane items in terms of 5e crafting?

A potion of healing is magical. See the first sentence of its description (PH, 153). #DnD https://t.co/2615ihJoDK

@Mazoshi1987But that means only casters can create them even though phb states you can make them with a herbalist kit? I'm curious, where do you interpret the PH saying that an herbalism kit gives you the ability to make a potion of healing?

@perception101 @Mazoshi1987but I guess you’re going to say, required, but not sufficient – which clears up a LOT of confusion 🙂 Bingo. The kit is required but not sufficient.

@perception101 @Mazoshi1987 Cool, thanks. Funny what you can read into a single sentence (along with half of reddit it seems). There are many phantom rules on the loose online.

@perception101 @Mazoshi1987aye, but the flipside is we can now clear stuff up in real time! Appreciate you taking the time for this. My pleasure!

@JeremyECrawford WAit, shit, I just got around to checking the DMG. Kinda sad that Healing Potions are always made at a loss.

As of the DMG errata, potions and other consumable magic items cost half as much to make: https://t.co/kuNYh24QEY #DnD https://t.co/8BE2q1RBfJ
