If you stand too close to a wall, or ceiling, or whatever you might not be able to get out off when consuming this, WoW makes sure you won't get stuck by immediately removing the buff and decreasing your size again. To make sure you don't lose one of these to the game design like that, make sure you're always standing in an open area when using the Firewater.

Winterfall firewater does stack with all melee potions and elixirs

Commento di 60735

This is both melee AND range attack power, so great for hunters too.

Commento di Ginkan

I honestly still grab these whenever I decide to go visit Winterspring to help out pre-BC guildies. It's not very much attack power, but these stacked with other size-increasing potions/abilities/spells can make you incredibly menacing. Being a Tauren, I can get to maybe 4-5x as large as a human and with my present gear, I look like a harbinger of death and destruction in BGs :). My main problem nowadays is just getting into bunkers / buildings with those buffs on though, haha.

Commento di Gnomey

this is very cool to have as a gnome, get exalted with exodar, get their mount, drink this, get a shammy to cast heroism, HUGE!!!

Commento di 115795

I found that bulwark of kings http://www.wowhead.com/?item=28484 also enlarges you for a short time (15 seconds) and is stackable with firewater

Commento di 105498

this is actually quite funny,because "Firewater" is slang for bong water,or as a reference to strong alcohol

Commento di Aelok

First off, kinda stupid it only effects melee attack power if thats true, and secondly it needs to specify!

Ugh, they hate on ranged attacks too much. We get lame a-- scopes when melee gets mongoose/fire/ice/etc.

Commento di 106166

Taurens using this while riding kodos - Do not expect to be able to run in doors to autodismount. You'll have to dismount manually to enter most doors when you're that big.

Commento di 32144

In terms of mount size, kissing Mojo from ZA will increase your mounts size if u kiss it while mounted.

Commento di 64664

This increased has actually a (minor) disadvantage. You can not enter buildings that are very small.
For example in Zangarmarsh where the Sporeggar live, there are buildings with questgivers inside, you can not enter or leave these buildings unless ya disable to potion.
It maybe wouldn't matter for smaller races (gnomes, dwarves), but i certainly wasn't able to enter one as a Night Elf.

Commento di FarseerLolotea

For an idea as to the approximate size increase, take note of the shaman's height in relation to Prophet Velen in this composite image.

Funny little pot this =)

All of you who wanna show off in Orgrimmar at an enormous size go to Sen'jin village in southern Durotar, and talk to the Witch doctor in training, Bom'bay. He does random buffs and hexex on you. You could get a hex on you, turning you into a snake, sheep or frog, this is removable, a friendly "buff". You could also get drunk as hell, "Completely smashed". But, he also has a buff called Grow with a 5 min duration, this does stack with the Firewater and also with Elixir of Giant Growth.

If you're a Shammy, Blood Fury stacks on top of all of these! You'll be bigger than Onyxia =)

Rathgor, Twilights Hammer (Europe)

Commento di Highscore

There is a trick to the grow buff as well

If you log out one you get it and log back in you can pick it up a seconds time and it will stack with this pot and the first grow, as well as bloodlust. Still looking for other things to make me even bigger

Commento di Roothroo

As an engineer, I did some exeperimentation to see how big of an Ornithopter (epic flying mount) I could make in Shattrath.
EDIT: updates are posted at this forum post on Wowhead.

If you're an engineer, you can use a transporter to possibly get a size buff (seems like about a 5% chance). There are 3 growth buffs: Split-Soul: Good {you're also golden and translucent}, Split-Soul: Evil {you're red and translucent}, and Enlarge {you feel somehow larger}. I've confirmed that at least two of them stack with each other (the two split-soul effects) and they stack with Elixir of Giant Growth, Heroism/Bloodlust, and of course, Mojo. The 3rd one probably also stacks, but getting 3 of them going at once is proving difficult, especially considering there's also a possible shrink effect.

Unfortunately, I was doing this experiment with my Alliance character, so I cannot get Bom'bay's growth effect. The character is also a hunter, which means I can't use the Bulwark of Kings.

Reviewing current list of stackable growth buffs, using ModScales from WowHead, which are given as % increases (ModScale 30 = 30% = 1.3x size):

Using only effects 1-6 with no doubling, you'd be at least 4.91x normal size (3.27x for Alliance). With all three transporter effects and two Bom'bay effects, you'd be at least 12.43x normal size (5.52x for Alliance). If you happen to time it right with a Terokk fight (and as a plate wearer, odds are good you're able to hold the aggro to get the buff), the Chosen One buff will make you ridiculously huge (an additional 2.5x, so roughly 31x for horde, 13.8x for alliance) for a dozen seconds.

So, it seems that in order to get as large as is hordely possible, you need to be a lvl 70 male Tauren engineer who wears plate (warrior or paladin or Death Knight).

Note: even if you're not a Tauren male, the largest PC, one of the transporter effects you can get turns you into a random PC race of either side (sometimes changes when you cross continents/worlds/instance barriers). So it's still remotely possible you could max out your size by randomly turning into a male Tauren. As another consideration, there's a trinket that Terokk drops that can turn you into one of 3 models of Arakokra (sp?), which are about as big as male Tauren, maybe a little bigger even.

Commento di 281529

I can confirm that you become as tall as the elites in any city (like Sylvanas or Thrall)

Commento di 111622

The Norenfogger Elixer will not make you normal size again. You'll still be smaller.

Commento di deffar

Nice potion for Showoff :)

Commento di 256454

Here is a list of growth effects - these used to stack but were disabled around patch 3.1 to only reflect one growth buff at most:

Grow (repeatable buff from short Horde questline)
Elixir of Giant Growth - or - Winterfall Firewater
- Elixir effect is amplified by Mixology for all alchemists. (Thanks Asmodoues!)
Gigantic Feast
Bloodlust / Heroism
Mojo: /kiss while mounted (Edit: this has been " fixed™ " and does not work anymore)

Edit: it appears that Transporter Malfunction from the engineering trinket Ultrasafe Transporter: Toshley's Station will stack with the others. I'm not sure why these stack but the others don't.

Commento di Jamzo

I tryed today, Gigantic Feast and Winterfall Firewater do not stack anymore.

Commento di 386896

i haven't been able to test this, but perhaps it stacks with the iron boot flask, which also increases size, though it turns you into an iron dwarf, which is, on average, the height of a tauren. maybe slightly shorter.

Commento di Soother

I can confirm that this potion and Bloodlust still do stack.

Commento di 348471

Ive noticed that the droprate is much higher than 6%... ive killed 10 and gotten 7 firewaters, but before i completed the deadwood quest and became unfriendly i got 0 and i had probably killed around 40... i dont know if its terrible luck for me or if you need to complete the deadwood quest and start the Winterfall followup

Commento di 422867

i dont get it, with this pot is says increases attack power by 35, so it increases my ranged attack power by 35 (im a hunter) BUT when i get the "well fed" buff from clamlette surprise, i hav no ranged attack power increase, is this a bug?

Commento di killerdinoblood

DRUGS!THESE THINGS ARE DRUGS!

Commento di 565604

if you want to look like the biggest thing in the world, then use every size increasing thing on you, and get a buddy to use a noggen elixer to get small and stand next to you.

Commento di 432232

The screenshots here are relatively puny compared to what I witnessed in Orgrimmar. I'll attach the screenshot I took a few weeks ago.
I'm not sure what the buff(s) was, but it made the person vomit green fluid.
(edit 11/17/2010). Screenshot still not posted. Here is a direct link: http://i110.photobucket.com/albums/n120/jim2374/BigVealot.jpg

Commento di 745747

Since the release of Cataclysm, I can safely say with 99% certainty that Winterfall Firewater no longer drops from the listed mobs, after killing over 1000 Furbolgs and 0 drops.

I only have 1 left and will leave it in my bank as a keepsake, unless Blizzard decide to reintroduce these wonderful elixirs. Alternatively people can use http://www.wowhead.com/item=6662#comments instead, although not as big as Winterfall Firewater.

Commento di 376863

Bigger then this?--->http://www.wowhead.com/user=goneguy#screenshots:id=184587

Edit 3/7/11 : ALSO did the quest line after GM told me "it will drop if you do the quest line again, we simply reset all the quests after cataclysm".....DID NOT WORK still doesnt drop, neither does dire brew.....blizz can sure fu-ck sh-it up

Commento di 344605

Should be kept away from gnomes and kids.

Commento di Syllion

Anyone know if you can still get that item ?

Commento di 734641

I was Suprized to find 3Winterfall fire water for 9gold and 7more for 20gold in AH in patch 4.3 cata, somone must have saved them, ill save them and sell them for 100gold each in a few months :D(##RESPBREAK##)8##DELIM##asakawa##DELIM##Please don't spam up these threads with comments about random quests and if you want to alter or update a previously posted comment use the edit button.

Commento di ewalcacer

I just got a confirmation from a GM, saying that "the mobs were removed with the shattering of the world".
Mobs are still arround but they won't drop it anymore. I had to open a ticket since I couldn't find solid information. Farmed for mover an hour while had the ticket on, no elixir.

Commento di Meatbunz

I can confirm that in 4.3 Winterfall Firewater drops, dropped from the furbogs to the west of Winterspring

Commento di Codkiller

yep, dropped for me to day on High Chief winterfall

Commento di Pratham

Just picked up the staff from Madness on my druid, went out in search of this to see how big I could get. I got one to drop after only a few kills. Many kills later I still only had the one, but I did get one! :D

Commento di mrogue

As of this writing, one dropped.

I did all the quests in Winterspring in 4.1 or 4.2, none dropped. Now in 4.3, I had one drop. So it seems Blizzard was alerted of this and they fixed it. Though it is kinda redundant now with the availability of Darkmoon potions...

Commento di 353690

Well just adding to the item factoid to date, I got one on my lvl 53 priest doing quests in winter spring, it was probably of an questline but, I didn't catch which gave it to me,,,, I do have it in my inventory though and it is not soulbound. So the only thing I can think of is, if you guys have a bunch of lvl 50's that haven't done the WS Quest chains, and want this on a main or something, this might help you get them.

Commento di 644686

As far as I can make out, Gran Capo Freddinverno is currently the only NPC to drop this. He has the same model as the other white furbolgs around him, so people are easily mistaking it for a low drop rate, when in actual fact it is unique to him.

I have been farming him 20 minutes now, and it appears to be a 100% drop rate with a respawn timer of ~1:03.

This being said, a small plea; PLEASE take other players into consideration when farming him. He is a quest mob, so if you see a lower level player hanging around, let them complete the objective by slaying him. I was debating posting this information here for this reason alone, so please just be respectful to other players. /end moan.

Happy farming all! ;)

Edit: Not to start a flame war, but people claiming it drops off ANY furbolg mob: are you 100% sure you haven't just killed the highchief? As mentioned, he stands in the camp with the others, blends in very well and has a fast respawn time. Quite possibly you just looted it from him and didn't realise.

Commento di Ixui

For anyone wondering, Darkmoon Firewater and Winterfall Firewater do NOT stack. The buffs overide one another.

Commento di Eldarias

High Chief Winterfall has a 100% chance to drop these from my observations (40 kills). He has a one minute respawn and spawns in the exact same spot every time. The surrounding mobs have a very low (~1%) drop chance and seem to take longer to respawn.

Commento di ZonixZ

This is a useful alternative to Elixir of Giant Growth, as the mob that drops it has a 100% Chance to drop it, and only has a mere one minute respawn timer.

When I used to farm this for myself noone was nearby so this isn't a hot item, I don't know if it makes money but it's easily obtainable, a cheap alternative if you don't want to spend gold on the other elixir.

Commento di 1195702

the firewater also stacks with the size buff from kiril:fury of beasts,the polearm from the dragonsoul raid,deathwing himself drops it after the last fight.i tried it and it works. my druid is now a mega-beast!

Commento di Izdzan

I always grab a few whilst in Winterspring. The attack power is nice but the size boost I'm sure, is what we all come for. It looks especially good on a Tauren/Orc.

Commento di Canniibal

As of 8.0.0, they last 40 minutes, even though the tooltip still says 20. Seems to be a bug, but it's not been patched out yet, so... If you're a roleplayer and use these things often, opt for these if they're cheap / available on your server.

Commento di Amana

20 Winterfall Pathfinder dropped 7 Winterfall Firewater. Winterspring around 25.25/46.20.
Good luck!

Commento di Galthron

Some time in the last few patches, this went from a ~50% drop from Gran Capo Freddinverno to what seems to be a guaranteed drop. He's on a one minute respawn timer.

Keep in mind that he's a quest spawn, so be kind to others if camping him!

Commento di Harroway

9.2.5+, wanted a RP/Xmog item that I didn't have to buy off the AH, as on an RP server things like Elisir della Crescita Gigante can get quite expensive.
Corroborante dei Freddinverno drops from Gran Capo Freddinverno at a very high rate. Wowhead says 48% but I'm inclined to believe that's incorrect, as I killed him 9 times and it dropped every time. His respawn seems to be 1 minute at maximum, so something you can easily farm while you're multitasking.
Since it's a Classic/Vanilla item, Corroborante dei Freddinverno is pretty unknown and practically nonexistent on the AH. I've gotten a few whispers asking "wth is that?" type questions. So, a little added bonus for those that like dipping into older content for modern situations to flex your knowledge of the old world and show that you've done some research. For those looking to make gold, it probably won't be anywhere near as lucrative as Elisir della Crescita Gigante simply because you need to farm it one at a time.
