Iron doors should be able to take water damage and become rusty. Once rusty, it should be possible to break an iron door like a normal wooden one.

Alternatively, iron doors should be corrodable by throwing or smashing acid on them, with it taking 2-3 potions to weaken a door to the point of destroyability.

When acid breaks on someone’s head and spills on them, it actually does more damage than quaffing it, because it is spread out over more surface area.

The “weakest” beatitude of the potion of acid (usually blessed in vanilla, but if #1918 is implemented it will be cursed) may not cure stoning.

Swap the blessed and cursed effects of the potion of acid, which means that blessed acid is more powerful acid, while cursed acid is kind of cruddy.

Potions of acid have a splash radius effect when broken (could probably be implemented as an acid explosion).

Whenever a diluted potion of acid would be created (i.e. by wishing or polypiling) it immediately explodes in an alchemic blast.

F corpses can be dipped into potions to make different potions: juice + violet fungus = booze, juice + yellow mold = sickness, water + green mold = acid. (Note the existence of the Brewing Patch, which dissolves most F in juice to produce confusion, hallucination, booze, sleeping, and healing.)

Later suggested recipes which involve dipping a corpse in acid to dissolve it:

  • Wraith corpse → potion of gain level. (Does not always succeed, to compensate for the fact that a wraith corpse doesn’t always grant a level. Maybe it even has a lower success rate than getting a level from a corpse.)
  • Newt corpse → potion of gain energy.
  • Floating eye corpse → potion of levitation or possibly monster detection.
