An In-Depth Guide To All Things Alchemy. An often underutilised craft in Skyrim, in this series I'll be doing an in-depth guide to alchemy and go from basics to advanced and maybe show you a different way to play the game.

This sounds extra legit with the English accent
There is only one trick to alchemy: *obsessively gather and buy every ingredient you see*. Everything else is alchemy calculators, inventory management, and quicksave-hit the vendor NPC-quickload when the NPCs run out of money.
The only real problem with alchemy is that, even after it’s at double legendary and I have more ingredients than 10 dragonborn could possibly use, *I cannot stop picking up every ingredient I see*.
I obsessively collect garlic....this has influenced me irl ....
My favorite is still Canis Root + Mora Tapinella + Imp Stool, Paralysis and lingering Damage. So useful
There is no best way to pass saturday night in a night cold then a video like this. My God, Mother Nature, All In One, Thank You
I could never get into alchemy for multiple of reasons of me not being interested, not really memorizing it, and something I didn't wanted to watch when watching several let's play of skyrim. However since I saw so many people praising alchemy and something you should get into, I took note, so I decided to go and find a video of a alchemy guide so I can get myself interested. And it did!
I thought I'd do a really detailed guide on something most players barely touch upon as legitimate game-play, plus I was trying out some different editing styles (some worked, some didn't), I'm glad you found the videos useful, it may be worth checking out the Rare Curios videos as they're nuts ... The first one turned from a review into more of a guide and the second showcases some insane potions 😃
He sounds like someone mashed Clavicus Vile and Delvin Malory together🤣
I love it!
I decided to dedicate a save to roleplaying as an argonian alchemist who dislikes combat unless he must lol. So thx for this
I was looking forward for a new video of yours. Indeed alchemy in Skyrim is something very vast.
I may add some notes though:
*There is some potions that you can use to level up your alchemy skills and character level quickly, I'm used to call these as "profit potions", and are they:
1 - Garlic + Nordic Barnacle + Salmon Roe (which makes an very expensive waterbreathing potion).
2 - Dragon's Tongue + Fly Amanita + Mora Tapinella (which makes an multiple bonifications and also very expensive potion).
3 - Blue Butterfly Wings + Blue Mountain Flower + Giant's Toe (which makes an damage magicka regen potion).
*There is also some excellent beginners potions, are they:
1 - Blue Mountain Flower + Wheat (which makes an restore/increase health potion).
2 - Torchbug Thorax + Honeycomb + Histcarp or Chaurus Eggs (which makes an restore/increase stamina potion).
3 - Red Mountain Flower + Tundra Cotton (which makes an increase magicka potion).
*Ohh, and last but not least, there is an incredible poison recipe:
1 - Canis Root + Imp Stool + Scathecraw (which makes an paralysis/lingering damage poison).
Sounds spicy huh?
Nice one thanks, Fyi I'm experimenting a bit so this is a weird set of videos where I'm trying different ways to present them, so I'd be really grateful for any feedback good or bad and suggestions are welcome ... Some of these videos will work some won't I just have to figure out which is which
Try Scathecraw + Imp Stool + Skeever Tail. Damage Health + Lingering Damage Health + Ravage Health.
@@TiddlyOggy absolutely perfect presentation- very clear and comprehensive without being overwhelmed , easy to follow even for a complete beginner like me, and dividing it into chapter time stamps makes it super easy to use as a reference
I personally prefer the recipe Salmon Roe + Histcarp + Silverside Perch
All of those ingredients can be farmed in the fish hatchery simultaneously. This is very good, because the hatchery refreshes whenever the cell is reloaded, hence stepping in and out of your house gives you a whole new supply of fIsH.
Blue mountain flower + wheat = “Health Rising” potion.
Me: starts a new game, goes directly to Arcadia to train Alchemy and pickpocket the gold back. Power level alchemy to 100. Make enchanting potions and do that loop till my enchanting is at 100. Breeze through Skyrim the rest of the way.
If i remember correctly wheat and blue mountain flower make a fortify health and restore health potion for much cheaper
Plants growing near each other and insects eating from these flowers often have the same effect? After so many hours I still never noticed.
The depth of this guide is real!
Yeah I thought I'd do a complete series on Alchemy as most You Tubers seem to skip over it ... The Rare Curios one has some really good stuff in it !! Sadly these videos don't get many views and definitely never bring me any subs, but i still think they're worth doing, well imo anyway
@@TiddlyOggy I've noticed you're one of those sadly underrated but high quality channels on RUclips. Well, at least I've subscribed to you a few days back, so there's a +1 for you. You seem to be as knowledgeable about this game as another uploader I used to follow, but thank goodness you don't have his arrogance!
Thanks a million, I appreciate the sub brother. The one thing I've learned about Skyrim is I don't know much, I'm always learning (usually through my mistakes) and yes there's some really arrogant You Tubers out there for sure, I've never worked out what they have to be arrogant about though !!!
Those who know even a little bit of video editing can most likely appreciate all the work you've put into making this. 11:18 That requires cutting out the entire map in Photoshop or what not and making those landmarks blue yourself. Adding extra layers to add the Blue Butterfly Wing and Snowberry on them.
And I haven't even started on the amount of research that went into this.
The amount of work that went into this was huge tbh, however this was my first attempt at this kind of video and I borrowed ideas from better creators than me... It was kind of a practice run when I had around 300-400 (I think) subs and virtually no views and no editing experience... There's a lot I'd change about this to make it more my style, that being said it's the sort of guide I like to watch and it helped me to make better videos over all (I hope)
Alchemy is crucial in early game on high difficulty. I like the way you presented this information, and the explanation of "dirty" potions, which are valuable to sell but mustn't be used unless your build can ignore the negative effect.
Thanks, it's very much appreciated, this little series took so much work so I'm glad you liked it, sadly my editing skills were a little bit basic but hey it's a learning curve 😃
Blue mountain flower and wheat will make the fortify/restore health potion no giants toe needed
The giants toe makes sure it lasts for 300s, that's probably why it's there
Blue Mountain Flower and Wheat are really the ideal for Restore Health, as they are super easy to obtain and they additionally Fortify Health (the potions are labeled "Fortify Health")
I never realised there was so much to alchemy, I'm just thinking about how much I've spent on potions, thanks a lot.
I do use Resist Magic, or at least a one-potion combo of Resist Fire and Resist Frost, but only when I remember. Well done for being one of the few people to pronounce "chitin" correctly.
You can wear 5 pieces of equipment the krosis dragon mask you can wear with a falmer heavy helmet
The falmer heavy helmet can be worn with Circlets generally
Salt and deathbell,
Make slow poison,
Very cheap for hunting giants
🤟🔥🔥
12:50 you should drink an enchanters elixer before doing those fortify alchemy enchantments on clothing items
For a dedicated Alchemist it's worth purchasing any and all of the Rare Curio ingredients. They seem to have higher magnitudes for one or more of their effects, including things like 2x potency. As an example, Corkbulb Root is quite common, probably due to the arrow and bolt crafting, and has a great Paralysis duration plus nice buffs to Fortify Marksman.
Ranger's Poison: River Betty + Deathbell gives high poison damage and a slow effect, if you have Concentrated Poison then add an item with Weakness to Poison like Bleeding Crown
Mage Duel Brew: Glowing Mushroom and Glow Dust gives Fortify Destruction and Resist Shock, add Wheat for Fortify Health
Withering Poison: Imp Stool and Human flesh gives poison damage and Paralysis, add either Slaughterfish part for Lingering Damage Health
Thanks for that, I've got three more alchemy videos coming out including a Rare Curios video which have quite a range of potions (the Rare Curios stuff is awesome) ... This is a weird set of videos where I'm trying different ways to present them, so I'd be really grateful for any feedback good or bad and suggestions are welcome
I prefer Canis Root, Imp Stool, and Mora Tapinella for my poisons: Paralysis, Poison Damage, and Lingering Damage Health.
Thank you for putting so much time into this video!
I’ve only recently started dabbling in alchemy and have to ask myself why I didn’t pay more attention to this skill before? It’s also great for role playing non-magically inclined characters/races like Orcs, Redguards and Wood Elves.
Best alchemy guide I've seen, very well put together. Thanks for your help
The Back Ground music reminds me of "Deku Palace Theme" from Majoras mask.
Ended up having to look it up because I'm dying from Nostalgia...
Some good recipes:
Canis Root+Hanging Moss+(Elves Ear or Juniper Berries) -- Fortify One-Handed & Fortify Marksman. Fortify Marksman is bugged and contributes to all weapon damage, meaning this potion will boost your One-Handed damage twice.
Chokeberry+Deathbell+Scathecraw -- A five-effect poison, with several of the effects having a higher-than-average magnitude. Effects are: Damage Health, Ravage Health, Damage Health Over Time, Damage Stamina, and Weakness to Poison. Chokeberry is part of the Rare Curios Creation Club feature added on 11-11-21. Babette will always stock 1-4, making the ingredient _very_ easy to acquire.
Canis Root+Imp Stool+Nirnroot -- Damage Health, Damage Stamina, and Paralysis.
River Betty+Deathbell+(Bleeding Crown or Giant Lichen) -- Damage Health, Slow, and Weakness to Poison.
OUTSTASNDING video, I loved everything.
This is the most comprehensive and well explained alchemy guide I have found, many thanks , I’m subscribing!
Your nickname should be Wort!
You should have wayyy more subs...nice work mate 👍🏾
Thanks, maybe one day
Amazing video perfect thank you I'm just starting 5 years after you made this video. I'm currently level 11 on my first playthrough!
I thought I wasn't seeing it but at 15:06, you put the wrong potion up instead of the potion of invisibility. Overall though, this is a well written guide on alchemy in skyrim. I recently started up in alchemy when I started playing more master difficulty and survival mode. It's paying off so much much and it's a refreshing playstyle over the typical stealth archer playthrough. I'm glad to see that I'm not the only one starting up in alchemy and seeing it's benefits.
Very useful for information 👍 trying to legendary alchemy so I can get experimenter for the new ingredients in anniversary edition.
dude you need WAY more subs. i almost didn't click on the vid because of low views and low sub count but i'm glad i did.
Ha ha, I too wish I had more subs, it's taken me nearly two years just to get this many, but it is what it is ... If you liked this video check out the 4th part about Rare Curios, some awesome recipes in there .... And thanks for the comment, much appreciated
They are often the most helpful videos. Then the bigger youtubers. Believe it or not ha.
@@eternalgamers10 Shame there's so few subs, deserves more imo
This is a really terrific vid! Very in depth. I have to admit, I have never used alchemy much because I'd rather my perks go into other things. You've made a good case for why it's viable. I might just give it a try! Loved the presentation on this one, as well.
Thanks a million, much appreciated, I've got a couple of story lines to complete the game, then my next character will be alchemy based (and maybe even survival mode) but basing your character really adds a whole new layer of gameplay imo, one I've missed out on tbh I've got three more alchemy videos coming out including a Rare Curios video which have quite a range of potions (the Rare Curios stuff is awesome) ... This is a weird set of videos where I'm trying different ways to present them, so some stuff will work and some won't, it's become really apparent that review and guide videos are the only way this channel will grow so with that in mind I'd be really grateful for any feedback good or bad (and be brutal if you need to be, I don't cry for long ... honest) and any suggestions are welcome
@@TiddlyOggy I'll definitely be honest! And I can't wait for the rest of the vids on this. :D
Ha ha, being the bloodthirsty woman you are I'll be fully expecting you to be ripping me a new one for sure, but remember all these vids are all a bit different as I'm trying out new stuff, the idea is to try and narrow down what does and doesn't work, the next one has some stuff I like and some I dislike, in both narrative and editing, hence I ask for honest opinions, it's quite difficult to self learn this stuff on your own unless you're naturally talented (which sadly I'm not) as often you can't see the wood for the trees so feedback good and bad is really handy
@@TiddlyOggy I don't rip anyone apart, unless they're screaming stuff like "BEcoss I LAAAHFFF YOU!!!" like certain priests of Talos.
hhhmmm .... Nope you still scare me
great video, I'm the 100th like, keep up the good work!
Thanks a million, really appreciate it, I didn't think people would like my alchemy videos at all 😀
respect for your work🙏 and gaming 😉
alchemy is the only reason why i would play skyrim over something else.
Yeah not many mmos or rpgs put much thought in if a player wants to be an alchemist its normally just a mage that uses exploding potions instead of spells in most games ;-;
Thank you for this. I like alchemy.
This is fantastic - saving this in favourites. I'm doing my first proper poisoner build (playing a squishy Imperial thief) and when I started I had no idea it would be as effective and profitable as it's been in conjunction with being in the TG, and that's with being stingy with my ingredients until I get the purity perk. With a garden and a greenhouse, I'm so flush with paralysis potions alone I was able to unload for 5000 gold in a day and turn that around into expensive sneak training from Delvin. Been a bit of a grind to get the invisibility ingredients aside from chaurus eggs, but nothing a bit of late-night thieving at the local alchemist and a quick trip to Raven Rock can't fix.
Looking forward to part two!
Thanks a million, much appreciated I've got three more alchemy videos coming out including a Rare Curios video which have quite a range of potions (the Rare Curios stuff is awesome) ... This is a weird set of videos where I'm trying different ways to present them, so some stuff will work and some won't, it's become really apparent that review and guide videos are the only way this channel will grow so with that in mind I'd be really grateful for any feedback good or bad (and be brutal if you need to be, I don't cry for long ... honest) and any suggestions are welcome
@@TiddlyOggy So far so good. A lot of alchemy guides tend to lean towards the money-making power potion side of things versus the practical effects, so I really like that you're presenting recipes meant to keep you alive even if you have no innate magic resistance, like your Redguard or my Imperial, and don't want to give up another stone for the Lord stone just yet.
It's a hard one, I've decided to do this series to find out what elements make the video work, problem I have, is most people seem to like the short sharp stuff and the successful You Tubers seem to skimp on the detail, however I like detail and that's why I do the stuff the way I do ... my concern is, editing wise this takes a long time and I have to gauge is it worth the effort, they have hundreds of thousands and even millions of subscribers and I have 500 ... Anyway I can wait a month or two before I kick Pewdie Pie off top spot !!!
@@TiddlyOggy You have the massive RUclipsrs who know every glitch and cheat in the game and then you have people whose videos are actually useful. There are some of the big RUclipsrs I like because they completely derp their way through the game and it's quite entertaining, but their tutorial videos are generally crap click bait. I can't tell you how many videos I've clicked on when looking for X only find myself irritated to find myself looking at such a video. I think it's the same with every game that involves a bit of crafting or hunting down items - I also play Don't Starve and there are some RUclipsrs who just there to tell you how to be OP after an hour of gameplay.
I notice you have had some live-streams - are you also on Twitch? If so, let me know how to find you so I can follow.
Yeah, I just can't get my head around making a game too easy too quickly, no sense of satisfaction in my eyes. Sadly I don't have time for live streaming at the moment, I'm concentrating on learning video editing, but it is in my plans for the future ... But I'm a true male .... Meaning I can only do one thing at a time !!!!!
Very Good Job !
Get the merchant perk and the investing perks. Opens up more potions and ingredients in their inventory and them having more money is obvious. Merchant perk also allows you to buy ring of pure mixtures in Dawnstar.
Perfect!👏🏽🤩
This is such a high quality guide. I hope u get more subs!!!
Sadly I think that ship has sailed, in fact I have more subs than I thought I'd ever get, so happy days😃
@@TiddlyOggy well u earned a sub from me. Maybe not much but I rarely sub on a channel or even comment and leave a like lol but I did in ur video!
@@argentfox7564 Much appreciated, I may be putting up some more videos soon, I'm just trying to work out what I want to do with this channel
@@TiddlyOggy just do what u do best. Try to Play with youtubes algorithm.
what is that dirt road in whiterun, which mod i mean?
SUPERB!
The god-tier potion for any Two-Handed warrior or battle-mage is a bee, dragon tongue, and fly amanita. Gives you regen stamina, fortify two-handed, and resist fire all in one gulp.
Can you tell me how many times you had to do the loop of fortify enchanting potions and fortify alchemy clothing before you were able to hit an improvement of enchanting by 56%? Or how you can get a potion of restore health to restore 347 points? Thank you
Quite a few times, I think I also used the Black Book "The Sallow Regent", I can't remember if I mentioned that in this video
What appearance mod do you have installed, your character looks great!
This is an old video, I sadly can't remember what mods I was using at this time, sorry
Hey mate, the helmet from :32
Where is that from? A mod?
Great.
Thanks, I just hope you found it useful 😃
@@TiddlyOggy Of course I did. I feel that a pure alchemy build is underrated. I will try that someday. Just pure awesomeness through only craft perks : smithing, enchanting and alchemy as the cherry on the cake, and one dagger and crossbow. Should be fun.
If you've already played through with different build types, playing as an alchemist based character adds a whole new dimension to the game, I love it personally and the Rare Curios mod takes it to a whole other level imo
I have the first original Skyrim. Takes forever about 6 human days real life to get the 3 alchemy level with all the gathering lucky i know 4secret chests
You sound like clavicus vile and i think thats fuckin dope
Blue mountain flower and wheat make Frt health and restore same potency as blue flower, imp stool and giant toe except very common ingredients.
HELP! Are there "Active Effects" that enhance Alchemy? Somehow I created a Smithing Potion +25% stronger than I can replicate. I wear all the gear as Enchanted as I can, and I cannot figure out how I did it?! I always sleep, and make sure I am not over encumbered. What are the Major Alchemy enchanted items in the game? Do they go past +25%?
The regular items go up to 25% frost, fire, etc up to 70. Light/heavy armor items up to 25 or 22 I think. Sneak,stamina etc, up to 40%
If you use potions and do the loop, you can make stronger, but in game enchanted items have a cap depending on what field it is.
4:00 All, you sure? What's the quest in Falkreath?
Well i was looking for a potion allowing me to see in dark,but nothing is show here so i'm very desappointed...
Watch the "Rare Curios" video
@@TiddlyOggy thank you i will 🙂
That background music is too loud
At 3:27 I'm calling plagiarism from the last video I watched lol.
This video ruclips.net/video/qZ1ABc96Tv8/видео.html
No offense, your video is much more comprehensive. The beginning is nearly word for word...
@@user-ox6vc2zc3h Ha ha, I had no views or clues how to do these videos, so I tried to learn from creators that I like, this one was a bit close to the knuckle for sure, hence the video description... To be fair I wasn't expecting anyone to watch it, also the actual video content was more my style... But hey, everyone's a learner at some stage and I've moved on to my own style (though I still don't get many subs or views)
I'm still so confused lol
No recipe here
Snowberries look so good they should be for cooking also! 😆🛞
