Notes
- This potion is the opposite of the Zen Potion, which drastically decreases spawn rates.
Tips
- Having this buff during a Blood Moon is a great way to get Blood Orbs fast.
- Make sure you use this in a place where you know you can survive as enemies can quickly overwhelm the player.
Trivia
- This potion was named after the "Zerg", a race from the StarCraft series, which are known for overwhelming the enemy with large numbers.
