How to Increase the Flame Guard Effect

After you have the base ingredients, you can increase the level of Flame Guard by adding more Creatures or Materials with the same effect.

Fireproof Lizard	Smotherwing Butterfly

How to Increase Elixir Duration

To increase the Duration of a potion, you need to add more Monster Parts to the mix. Especially Dragon parts give large bonuses, so they are the recommended materials for increasing elixir duration!

How to Get Fireproof Elixirs

How to Make Fireproof Elixir

The easiest way to come by Elixirs, by far, is to make them yourself. As you journey through Hyrule, you will no doubt gather large amounts of Monster Drops and Items, so use these to craft the potions you need.

How to Make Elixirs

Trade Beetles with Beedle

Beedle will trade Elixirs in return for any beetles you're carrying, but the potion you get is random. He will tell you what he's willing to trade for, so you can always turn him down and try again, or find him somewhere else until he offers a Fireproof Elixir.

Buy Fireproof Elixir from Shop

As the only Elixir in the game, Fireproof Elixirs can be bought from shops!

Shops	Prices
Enlarge Gaile (Foothill Stable)	・1x Fireproof Elixir, 60 Rupees ・2x Fireproof Elixirs, 110 Rupees ・3x Fireproof Elixirs, 150 Rupees
Enlarge Offrak (Goron City)	・1x Fireproof Elixir, 60 Rupees

Offrak doesn't sell in bulk, but his Elixir lasts a bit longer than Gaile's. Offrak's Elixir lasts 6m 30s, Gaile's lasts 6m 10s.
