Not yet, but sweden is known for the purity of their water, so we shall see what the developers decide to do about it.

This actually got me wondering why anyone would want to raise the mercury level in foods, unless they have a weird sense of Humours that thinks that since we have March Hares in game, we might as well become Mad Hatters.

Only way to purify water back in the day was to turn it into alcohol.

Would be nice to throw in a bit of salt and have a "filter barrel" Similar to a regular barrel but requires an extra iron bar and a high quality cloth. Filter out those impurities!

Doubt water purity will be added for a long time.

Current max humor from current purity foods are way stronger than defense can handle, adding purity water would make the difference even higher.

I expect water purity not to exist for a very long time.

Water was 100% pure before civilization showed up and started defecating into it and using it as a means of waste disposal. Where I hunt and fish IRL, you can drink straight from the streams and small lakes safely.(except during spring melt) So we can't make pure water in salem, because we make it impure by existing.

That's kind of a bold statement. No doubt infectious diseases spread more easily through our waste, and industrialization has added additional toxins to the system. But it's not like humans weren't ***** and pissing before civilization existed, and even if we assume there is absolutely no human waste there are plenty of other issues with "100% pure" natural water ranging from bacteria to parasites. Back in the day people died from things they'd drink in water and they just didn't have the medical knowledge to know what caused it.

There could be several ways of making purity high water.

Back in the middle ages people believed (and were often right) that rain water was the purest, so we could have some form rain catchers.

We do have those big cauldrons that cost 10 bars of iron to make them, how about boiling.

The description of dowsing rods says something about wells, we all know how mine purity works.
