Glowing Flask

Glowing Flask (Empty) is the depleted form of the Glowing Flask with 0 durability remaining. Its passives suggest it can still do things: it applies a status at battle end and transforms when exposed to elemental influences, eventually becoming a charged flask again. Rather than being a dead item, the empty flask is the beginning of a refill cycle — expose it to the right element to restore its healing charges.

The TransformOnElementalInfluence passive means the empty flask changes into a different form when it comes into contact with an elemental effect: fire, ice, lightning, or another element could each create a different variant of the flask with different properties. The StatusOnBattleEnd passive applies something after each fight even while empty, giving it marginal ongoing value beyond being just a refillable container. The mechanics suggest this item has multiple forms depending on what element it absorbs, making it a versatile but complex item to manage.

Do not discard the Glowing Flask when it empties: the refill mechanic means it can return to full charges by exposure to elemental sources in the run. If you have fire or ice abilities, run near hazardous environments, or fight elementally-active enemies, the flask may automatically absorb an element and transform. The specific elemental variants and their effects are worth learning to understand which refill is most valuable for your build. Treat the empty flask as a quest item in progress rather than a spent consumable.
