I was just curious because I don’t usually interact with this type of system. Most of the time they just provide +2% lockpicking speed or something niche like that. You know stuff that only really matters on some builds for the highest difficulties.
But Potions of Speed, Elixir of the Colossus, and Elixir of Bloodlust are so damn good I started brewing them up anytime I got enough ingredients. It’s become almost as habitual as checking every barrel and box.
Aside from a quest related craft or to condense components, I haven’t touched it. That doesn’t mean my bags aren’t absolutely stacked with components though. I gotta stop clicking on flowers and shit.
