'''Perishing Potions''' is the [[Alchemist (BTD6)|Alchemist]]'s path 2 tier 2 [[upgrade]] in ''[[Bloons TD 6]]''. ~~It upgrades the~~ Alchemist's main potions and [[Acid Pool (BTD6)|Acid Pools]]~~, increasing their~~ [[MOAB-Class damage]] by +~~4 and increasing their~~ [[Fortified Bloon (BTD6)|Fortified]] MOAB-Class damage ~~by +15. Additionally~~, ~~its potions strip~~ the Fortified property from Fortified [[~~Ceramic Bloon~~ (BTD6)|~~Ceramic~~]] and [[~~Lead Bloon~~ (BTD6)|~~Lead Bloons~~]].

[[Crosspath]]ing with [[Acidic Mixture Dip (BTD6)|Acidic Mixture Dip]] increases the number of attacks it affects to 12. With [[Berserker Brew (BTD6)|Berserker Brew]], it increases the brew buff's duration by 1 second or +15 attacks, and lowers the reapplication cooldown by 1 second; the same applies to [[Stronger Stimulant (BTD6)|Stronger Stimulant]].<section end="lede" />

Perishing Potions is one of few ways to cheaply strip the Fortified properties of Leads and Ceramics, as well as one of the cheapest ways to do high damage to specifically Fortified MOAB-class. However, it's expensive to spam, is not very efficient beyond the early-game, and does weak damage to anything but Fortified MOAB-class. [[Acid Pool (BTD6)|Acid Pool]]s can be a niche method against a single Fortified MOAB for cheap.

Perishing Potions is more often used as a crosspath to AMDs and T3+T4 brews so that the buffing uptime is extended. This often gives enough extra uptime on faster-attacking towers while the Alchemist itself can contribute a small amount of extra damage. AMD application rate isn't as much as with [[Faster Throwing (BTD6) (Alchemist)|Faster Throwing]], so the extra cost of buying [[Stronger Acid (BTD6)|Stronger Acid]] and Perishing Potions should be only done for a little extra uptime on other AMD Alchemists with desynchronized attacks.

[[Lead to Gold (BTD6)|Lead to Gold]] gets higher average DPS to Fortified DDTs, but is less favorable for [[Rubber to Gold (BTD6)|Rubber to Gold]] because the latter upgrade's main purpose is the gold potion which is not affected by Perishing Potions.
