[@drazen1972cro]

Just an advice for future videos: chasm is pronounced with K (ka:zm), like you would in alchemy or charisma.

[@gygaxthecat2448]

Chasm is pronounced with a hard 'K' sound. That will make it illiterate. Like Peter Parker.

[@tiagobrito69]

I'm level 11 and never used alchemy ahaushau, not even count on the explosives and oils never used. Sometimes I use elementals arrows though.

[@stevep2448]

​@drazen1972cro just like the ch in alchemy, which made me laugh a bit.

[@annelyle5474]

PSA: on PS5 you access Alchemy via the R2 radial (the one that has character sheets, journal, rests, etc)

[@nassattack]

One thing worth noting is that Elixirs last until you long rest so they're a nice way to buff your characters for several encounters.

[@dominicnzl]

Thanks! It would be nice to know how long a consumable lasts from the inventory screen. So far I haven't been able to find that information.

[@johnyshadow]

@@dominicnzl There´s an in-game book on them. but in short: Elixir = until long rest Potion = instant, or 1 minute(10 turns) (I haven´t actually tested it for things that normally last longer, like "speaking with animals". Maybe they last longer, but I´d consider that a nice bonus, not the rule.) Coatings and stuff also 10 turns and Bonbs pretty much explain themselves.

[@dominicnzl]

@@johnyshadow thanks, I did not know this 👍

[@johnyshadow]

@@dominicnzl Just make things clearer, I should add that: Elixirs - you can only have 1 active at a time Potions - you can chug as many as you want. Coatings - no idea, but I think it would make sense to only have 1 at a time...

[@chiffa37]

That's cool but you will never be a real woman

[@NovusGM]

"Rule of 3" for alchemy in BG3 is not what you said (combining 2 things will create the product). It is about creating materials from raw materials. You need 3 pieces of raw materials to create 1 of ash/salt/essence etc. That is the "Rule of 3".

[@TheSeeker225]

I noticed that also. He speaks well, but I've noticed that he gets a lot of things wrong in his videos.

[@donasay]

If you are using Gale in your playthrough set his wizard subclass to transmutation. You get a chance to get 2 potions when you make 1. Add some guidance to him and he'll be churning out potions like crazy.

[@azell2913]

it's a pretty hard dc15 medicine check you can also use enhance ability (lvl 2 cleric spell) wisdom and get advantage on it (also can put all the buffs on and enter turn based mode so buffs don't run out) but yeah get 16 wisdom and proficiency with medicine as well atleast or just use a hireling if your don't want to respec him

[@Sotanaht01]

@@azell2913 Just use a hireling, max out their wisdom and medicine proficiency and leave them in camp when you arent crafting.

[@JohnQDarksoul]

@azell2913 A 5th level character (4 wizard/1 rogue) could get a +8 to +12 (+1d4 from guidance) modifier to the check. Add enhance ability and it's not a hard check in the slightest. Your chance of failure is less than 20%.

[@Gokou3036]

Another perk is the transmuter stone that comes with that subclass. Gale can sit home with his high wisdom build and I’ll take than free con prof TYVM!

[@tomasxfranco]

A hireling is much better

[@matt.coburn]

Hire the Halfling bard and respec her as a Transumation wizard. Transmutation wizards have a chance to create 2 potions instead of one. Being a Halfling, with the luck bonus, any 1 or 2 roll on the potion creation to proc that create double aspect gets rerolled. Nearly impossible not to get 2 potions instead of one. Plus you don't have to worry about carrying all those ingredients. Just dump them into her inventory every time you come back to camp.

[@Adam.C]

Potion of speed are the mvp. Don't need healing if your fighter can move 90ft and 6 attacks in your first turn! Zoom zoom.

[@italianspartacus]

[@Kurdent1]

As if the game wasnt already that easy.

[@FireCrack83]

gonna try!!! i always give them "haste" with my mage

[@jordonlegge448]

@@FireCrack83haste spell kinda sucks imo costs a concentration, a spell, an action if used in combat and if your mage gets hit or cc’ed your fighter now has lethargic debuff

[@erikholum4772]

@@Kurdent1 Tried Tactician yet?

[@RevanBC]

Thanks for the video. I was waiting for something like this. On a side note, you said you didn't use bombs very often. A cool move is that you stack a backpack full of bombs and when you throw it the backpack gets destroyed leaving all the bombs scattered on the ground (ideally near a hard enemy) and you cast some fire at one of them to cause a nuke explosion and fps stutter on your screen. It's great :)

[@Sanguivore]

That is a crazy tactic. I love how inventive people have been getting with this game. Thanks for the tip! :D

[@JohnSmith-vk9ds]

Another way to detonate this is to have a ranged character (or anyone with a ranged weapon) carry a candle. All in the same round you can drop the candle on the ground, light it, dip your ranged weapon in it to ad 1d4 fire damage to attacks with it for 3 rounds, and then fire a shot at the bombs, and then even pick the candle back up to use later.

[@MrGee89]

Do u even need fire? U can just shoot the bomb right lol

[@Zozzed]

I believe you can put a lit torch or candle into the backpack (acting like a fuse) and it will then explode all the bombs when it hits the ground. Haven't tested if it explodes if you DON'T throw it right away - chuckle.

[@JasonWolfeYT]

Potion of speed is hands down the most game winning item. It gets you haste on a bonus action. The action economy is crazy. Only limitation is hyena hides.

[@MZZE-my7hz]

I have grabbed every ingredient ive found on my journey but still never bothered making potions, cant wait to see how much i can make when i finally remember to do so lol

[@JosiahJensen42]

Same!

[@HowardDPVT]

My greatest pride and my biggest shame. lol

[@quincykunz3481]

Three quick tips: One, elixirs of strength are obscene. I respecced to dump my strength because I have enough hill giant elixirs to keep me going for probably the rest of the game at a 21 strength. Also recently found the elixir of CLOUD giant strength which sets strength to 27 until long rest. I will happily take 18-19 extra attribute points on me and whoever in my squad needs to turn enemies into pasta sauce today. Two, most (not all) potions create a tiny aoe when thrown or attacked, meaning you can stretch potions of healing or speed or whatever else to 3 or 4 people if you pack everyone in real close. There is no reduced effect for splashing the potion and making it a "punch bowl." Three, coatings are very nice on characters that attack many times in a turn. Worm poison adds 1d10 damage to every attack for a minute, drow poison has a chance of inflicting poison AND sleep, which gives you auto-crits. Basic poisons are strewn around everywhere so why not use em? Do not sleep on coatings.

[@ioverslept.]

Does throwing a potion on multiple people spread the effect equally or do they all get 100% of the potions power?

[@erikholum4772]

@@ioverslept. It does not spread it evenly, at least for healing potions (all I've thrown). Each unit hit acts as if they each consumed their own potion. Though, from my experience it seems to only hit 2 people. Dropping a potion on the ground, tightly packing your party around it and attacking it to break it seems to spread it to EVERYONE. Again, I could be wrong about the number of targets hit when thrown, maybe I don't pack them tightly enough. But I do see the targeting reticle when I throw them and it still only hits at most 2 targets.

[@tantalus_complex]

​@@ioverslept.100%, at least for now. I suspect this _may_ be something they'll consider patching out for balance. But who knows. Larian games are known for such shenanigans.

[@B00Radl33]

Your statement about coatings answered all the questions I had left after this video. And your statement about splashing potions gave me a lot to think about

[@erikholum4772]

@@tantalus_complex they could. Though, I find myself not even doing it because it's just annoying to do, lol. Especially dropping them and grouping everyone. I just hate the time it takes so I just consume the potions individually, I don't need that many it seems. Maybe on tactician it'll be different.

[@exeedorbit]

[@Mentiac]

One of the better parts about the Potion of Speed is that unlike haste it doesn't require concentration to maintain so that frees up one of your casters to focus on maintaining another spell. Though the potion only last for 3 rounds versus haste's 10. But knowing that it'll last for three rounds means you can plan ahead better and not risk losing the concentration and becoming lethargic in the middle of a tense situation.

[@harperthegoblin]

Speed has gotten me through so many hard fights because I forgot to grab haste on my wizatd

[@josephkasmarcik2895]

You can also use a single potion on the entire party if they are huddled together on say a ambush so the party gets the advantage of haste at the very beginning with basically no waste of actions if you do it on turn mode. Its pretty crazy.

[@pontusvongeijer1240]

[@Demosthenes84]

Give your grenades oils and vials to your melee character. Karlach is such a beast. I haste her with a spell and she goes to town with a Halberd. Then the coatings increase damage and the grenades and special arrows help her have more utility with enraged throw. An extra action you can take after main hand weapon attacks. It's powerful. So many special arrows, coatings and grenades with so many effects. Basically a melee characters way of casting spells

[@moldiworp9143]

That enraged throw is unique to the frenzy barbarian, FYI. I tried to make a wildheart barb to jump n throw and it was a struggle.

[@Saccshop]

The game is truly a masterpiece. I find out new shit every day that I had no clue about. Like today, I found out you can wildshape into an Owlbear and nuke bosses for 800+ damage, just by falling on them. Lol.

[@Durrutitv]

@@erikholum4772 That's awesome! I used to keep so much stuff on my character to sell if I find a vendor, now I send everything to camp so I can fully invest in barrelmancy...cuz a pocketful of environmental interactions will get you through the toughest encounters.

[@saintpres4ge533]

The strongest thing you can brew if you can get the materials is the Haste Spore bottle, throw it on the ground, walk in and out or across it each turn and you get a haste without the downside of being fatigued if it ends. There are a few situational potions and flasks, but the haste is so good, especially for fighters, spell casters and barbarians. Bit less useful if you rely on bonus action like monks, rogues or bards, but still good for extra actions.

[@197mmCannon]

Haste spore? I haven’t found that yet

[@saintpres4ge533]

@@197mmCannon You do get 2 bottles of them from the myconids in the underdark. However I couldn't really find anything to brew them. There are a number of mushrooms and spores you can get. But there is a craftable recipe for a Haste Spore Grenade using 3 Hastening Spores, I personally have not found any, but I think some merchants can sell them.

[@Quandry1]

Monks benefit quite a lot from haste. They do still attack twice a round with their actions. So when combined with things like fangs of the fire snake, bonus damage equipment, and such... you are upping their damage potential more than you might think. Let's say a monk is dealing 1d6 unarmed and has just 18 dex and use a bit of simplified math. This monk is averaging 7 damage every attack. Make this monk at least level 5. This means you are likely to do 21 damage a turn because of 3 attacks. 28 if you use flurry of blows. Haste for another action to get two more attacks means 35 without flurry and 42 with flurry. Just as your base average a turn. Once you start adding in other variables to damage on top of it. It mostly just goes up from there. Fangs of the fire snake adds an average of 5 per hit of fire damage. The acid ring (I believe it works for monks) is another 2. There are gloves that average another 2 (1d4) of necrotic damage... this becomes 16 average damage per hit. For 48 damage for just 3 hits... all the way up to an average of 96 for 6 hits, 32 of which would come from haste. Now obviously not all of this is necessarily going to be found on a level 5 monk. I'm just using it as a bit of an example as to why haste the way they have it is still very strong for monks. Edit: the thing to keep in mind about monks tends to be more about consistency than Sikes overall. They aren't usually going to spike quite as high but they also aren't usually going to dip as low in the damage range either.

[@MegamiShin]

I never knew these were so easy to make as well as has the game figure out all the recipes. Thanks, I like that you give the good bit at the beginning.

I found this very useful, I was wondering how the fluff to make more potions of different types. Thanks for that! :3

[@robertsilvermyst7325]

What I do is I use Withers to make a hireling that has high INT/WIS. 2 levels of Transmutation Wizard, and 1 level of rogue, and I have Medicine as one of their expertise. Transmutation wizards can craft two of a potion if they pass a medicine check. So whenever I'm loaded with potion reagents, I go to camp, drop off one of my companions, bring the hireling into the party, save and then have them extract and craft potions.

Any of the debuff poisons (Drow, Kalabasan's, etc) is really good on a bow. Arrow of Many Targets means I can inflict status on up to 4 targets per shot (which is pretty good CC, and is really good with Kalabasan's poison applying Paralysis).

Best way to utilize this is getting the halfling heirling from withers. Respect to wizard transmutation for 3 levels then back to bard for self skill boost and make sure to spec into medicine then guidance and turn based mode. You can also add a level of rogue for expertise. Then double down on potions and elixirs with a successful medicine check. Just make sure to maximize the wisdom stat.
