Your Potions and Poisons : IV

» Tue Feb 04, 2014 10:57 am

A few of my characters like to use alchemy to aid them in combat, or in acquiring gold. When I make a particularly powerful potion/poison, I give it a unique name and record its effects, their magnitude/duration, and the required ingredients. I keep a little notebook by me so I can quickly jot them down for future reference.

Here are ten of my best:

I just make them randomly

Sometimes I have strong potions, somtimes very weak potions.

Tena the Small, essentially an archer, also makes extensive use of potions--she has over 900 in storage. Among her favorites are Tonic (Restore & Fortify Health), Magebane (Damage Health, Intelligence & Magicka, Silence, Paralyze), Pow! (Damage health and magicka), A-Zap! (Damage Health and Shock Damage), and Wipeout (Damage Health & Magicka, Silence, Paralyze). Recipes are varied, especially now that she has access to the Shivering Isles ingredients. Has anyone noticed how useful Boar Meat is as a restorative? Tena usually leaves wild animals alone, but not boars.

Here are the only ones my maxed out characters make and carry. I use the poisons on Ogre and Minotaur Lords. These are made by a Master Alchemist with Master level equipment. I have so few, I just use an index card to keep the formulae on.
