Flasks play a big role in Path of Exile, every character uses them. To activate Flask you need Flask Charges that you gain by killing enemies, or passively (for example, with The Traitor Keystone or Pathfinder's Nature's Adrenaline passive). Only certain builds can rest assured that their Flasks will permanentlyaffect the character - for most builds it's a temporary buff to damage or survivability. Flasks offer various improvements to Defences, Damage, Resistance, or Mobility. You canimprove your Magic Flasks with one Suffix and one Prefix. A Prefix will improve the Flask's Effect, ChargesRecovery, or Duration, while the Suffix enhances the Flask with a new Effect to further boost the character's performance. These magic Flasks are dull, they don'thave any overly interesting effect. Unique Flask, however, may fundamentally change the whole build, or improve it way more effectively than a regular Magic Flask would.
Each character is allowed to have 5 Flasks, the only cases in which you use 4 or fewer Flasks are withMicro-Distillery Belt or alongside the Traitor Keystone. Both Magic and Unique Flask can be enhanced with Enkindling or Instilling Orb. Instilling Orbs triggers the Flask for you and the Enkindling Orbs may improvethe effect, duration, or other aspects of the Flask while making it unable to gain Charges when it's active. Flasks can be used in response to a certain situation, as one does with Life Flaks - you use it if you need to Recover Life. Magic Flasks might be used to remove any other single Ailment like Freeze or Bleeding and be set up to activate when the character is afflicted with it. Most players however have their Flask set up to activate when the Flask Charges reach full to fully automate the process and pay no mind to it.
The table below consists of every obtainable Unique Flask in the game. It briefly explains how each of them works and when to use it. We have also included sample builds in which the Flask is implemented. Almost every Unique Flask has its own niche in which it performs exceptionally well.
