How to GM Alchemy
#11

Eighty Swords Wrote:Luda, there is a vendor you can sell them to. I didn't post the vendor's name because I don't know if the staff want us to be able to sell potions to NPC's, and since it doesn't seem like a bug to me I don't feel I'm exploiting anything by not telling them. Message me on MSN and I'll tell you who it is.



Ah I see what happened, when I put all the information in an Excel spreadsheet and used the autosum feature it missed a cell. I corrected the amount in my above post, it really was approximately 58758 pots (I say approximately for reasons explained in my first post). Thanks for pointing out the mistake smoke.





If you look at what I wrote just below the table it says gold LOST, not SPENT. I lost 117k because I was able to sell a lot of potions back to NPC's. The actual cost was more. I suppose I should have written how much I spent total rather then how much I lost.

The vast majority of potions I made were lesser heal and lesser poison which only take 1 reg each and and I was able to reuse a lot of bottles by making poison potions and then training poisoning. So just because I made approximately 58758 potions doesn't mean I used 58758 bottles. If you want more precise numbers...

Potions made..............regs used..............craft cost..................profit from selling to npc.....net loss
14507 lesser poison........14507.............58028(regs only)..........................0.......................58028
44251 lesser heal...........44251........398259(regs and bottles)...............309751....................88508

So the actual cost of training Alchemy the way I did was 456287gp. Your cost may vary depending on the potions you make, if you don't train poisoning, or if you start with a different skill level then me.



If you had bothered to read my post instead of just trying to point out flaws to make me look bad instead of saying 'hey eighty I think you made a mistake here', you would have seen this:



Also, not everyone got Alchemy transfered at 40 like I did, maybe they got alchemy transfered at 60, or maybe someone will forget they can buy up to about 40 skill from an NPC and will have to make more potions then I did, or maybe someone will start making mana potions, greater heal potions, or even shrink potions at a certain point...

so hrm basically your refusing to report a bug Big Grin
