# Soda Craft Quest
**Soda Master Fizzy** โ Amatsu (182, 124)
Summer's brutal โ and Fizzy has a plan. He's experimenting with three carbonated recipes and needs help testing them. Bring him the materials, hope the bubbles cooperate, and trade your finished batch for an **Event Grab Bag**.
{% hint style="warning" %}
**Seasonal event** โ the Soda Master is only around during the summer. If he tells you "the summer heat hasn't arrived yet" or "summer's over," check back during the active window.
{% endhint %}

## ๐ Getting Started
| Info | Details |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **NPC** | Soda Master Fizzy (recipes & trading) |
| **Location** | Amatsu (182, 124) |
| **Cost** | Ingredients only โ see recipes below |
| **Failure penalty** | Loses **all ingredients** on a failed brew. Plan accordingly. |
{% hint style="info" %}
Pro tip: stockpile a multi-batch worth of ingredients before you start brewing. Recipes are now near-guaranteed (93โ99% success), but a single failed roll still eats the full ingredient stack โ bring at least one backup set.
{% endhint %}

## ๐น The Recipes
Each soda has its own recipe and its own **success rate**. Fail the roll and **all ingredients are consumed for nothing** โ the harder the recipe, the bigger the risk.
###  Coca Cola (31578) โ 99% success
| Material | Qty |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | --: |
|  Sweet Potato (516) | 100 |
|  Ice Cube (7066) | 50 |
|  Honey (518) | 30 |
|  Empty Bottle (713) | 1 |
|  Rookie Badge (20294) | 50 |
The easiest recipe in the lineup โ practically a guaranteed brew. Use it to chip away at the 10x quota while you stockpile rarer ingredients for the other two.
###  Fanta Orange (31579) โ 95% success
| Material | Qty |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | --: |
|  Orange (582) | 150 |
|  Ice Cube (7066) | 50 |
|  Lemon (31589) | 200 |
|  Empty Bottle (713) | 1 |
|  Rookie Badge (20294) | 30 |
Middle of the road โ citrus balance is tricky but almost always lands.
###  Fanta Grape (31580) โ 93% success
| Material | Qty |
| ----------------------------------------------------- | --: |
|  Grape (514) | 200 |
|  Ice Cube (7066) | 50 |
|  Lemon (31589) | 200 |
|  Empty Bottle (713) | 1 |
|  Rookie Badge (20294) | 30 |
The toughest brew, but still a comfortable **93%** โ one in fifteen attempts will eat your stack, so don't go in with the bare minimum.

## ๐ The Big Trade โ Event Grab Bag
Once you've banked **10 of each soda**, Fizzy will trade the lot for an **Event Grab Bag**:
| Reward | Costs |
| ---------------------------------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|  Event Grab Bag (20203) x1 | 
Coca Cola (31578) x10
Fanta Orange (31579) x10
Fanta Grape (31580) x10
|
The Grab Bag reactivates the **Event Card Quest** flow for the mid-year, so this is the gateway item for that whole chain.

## ๐งบ Where the Ingredients Come From
Quick reference for sourcing each ingredient. **Use `@whodrops - ` in-game** to look up exact drop sources and rates for any of the items below.
### Basic ingredients
*  **Sweet Potato** (516) โ farm fields, Prontera area
*  **Orange** (582) โ Payon Forest, fruit trees
*  **Grapes** (514) โ Aldebaran vineyards / Al De Baran
*  **Lemon** (31589) โ Use the command @whodrops \
- to find which mobs drop them.
### Rare ingredients
*  **Ice Cube** (7066) โ frozen areas, some monsters drop them
*  **Honey** (518) โ bees and some forest monsters
*  **Empty Bottle** (713) โ **not sold at `@mall`** (the Alchemy Items shop stocks Empty Test Tube / Cylinder, not Empty Bottle). Farm it from mobs โ use `@whodrops 713` in-game to see drop sources.
### Currency
*  **Rookie Badge** (20294) โ common rewards from [**Battlegrounds**](/content/pvp-content/battlegrounds.md), the [**MVP Ladder**](/content/pvm-content/mvp.md), [**Hunting Missions**](/content/pvm-content/hunting-missions.md), and GM Events.

## ๐ก Tips
* **Brew in bulk.** One Grab Bag needs 30 successful sodas total (10 ร 3 flavors). With success rates of 93โ99%, \~32 attempts is enough to land a full set on average โ bring a couple of extras to cover the rare unlucky roll.
* **Lead with Coca Cola.** Nearly a guaranteed brew at 99% โ use it to warm up before committing the bigger Orange/Grape stacks.
* **The Empty Bottle is per-attempt.** Every brew consumes 1 regardless of outcome โ budget \~35 Empty Bottles.
* **Rookie Badges are much cheaper now.** Coca Cola needs 50, Orange and Grape need 30 each โ a full 30-soda set runs roughly **1,400 Badges**.
* **Lemon is the hidden grinder.** Both Orange and Grape recipes want 200 Lemons each. Use the command @whodrops \
- to find which mobs drop them.
