In-game description

Increases Evasion. Evasion +5 for 10 min.

Liven's take

Dexterity Potion is a 10-minute Evasion (EVA) buff. The naming is slightly confusing - "Dexterity Potion" boosts Evasion, not the DEX stat directly. The name refers to the fact that Evasion scales from DEX in Classic MapleStory, so DEX-focused classes (Thieves, Bowmen) benefit most.

Stat analysis

+5 Evasion (EVA): flat additive. Reduces incoming physical hit chance from mobs.
10-minute duration + 250 mesos: matches the stat potion pantheon standard.

Who benefits most

Thieves (primary): Thief combat revolves around not-getting-hit. High EVA = fewer incoming hits = less potion consumption. Dexterity Potion is essential Thief boss-fight kit.
Bowmen: Bowmen kite mobs from range. Extra Evasion means the occasional close-range mob whiffs its attack.
Warriors / Magicians: less useful. Warriors take hits by design (high PDD compensates). Magicians rely on Magic Guard converting damage to MP loss rather than dodging.

Where it comes from

Quest reward: Master Sgt Fox's Bravo sub-chain (12105) awards 3x Dexterity Potion guaranteed.
Ronnie's House-Building: the L41 Ronnie chain also awards Dexterity Potions in its stat- potion reward mix.
NPC purchase: most weapon shops, 250 mesos.

Combined defensive kit

Dexterity Potion pairs with Sniper Potion for the full DEX-class combat kit:

Sniper Potion (+5 ACC): offensive - ensures your shots land.
Dexterity Potion (+5 EVA): defensive - ensures enemy shots miss.

Together = 20-30% effective survivability gain in Bowman/Thief training scenarios.
