Mystifying mixture makes its first appearance in the series. It has a chance to inflict confusion on a single enemy and is consumed upon use, having the same effect as the [[Fuddle]] spell. The mixture can be made two different ways in the [[Alchemy Pot]] and it can also be mixed to create a few items, as well. One can be found in a pot at [[Arcadia]].

In the original Sony PlayStation 2 version, mystifying mixture can be sold at a high profit at 280 gold each for the first 29 sold, increasing to 840 gold each for the 30th to 49th sold, then going back to 280 gold from the 50th onward.
