How does alchemy work? I've tried to make potions, but it just doesn't work. Can anyone tell me how to make potions? tx

To make a potion you have to have two different ingredients that have a commom effect. To make a simple potion of fatigue take a piece of bread and a small Karma Egg.

There is a Alchemy Recipe book in Pedgalia(??, sorry not at home to get the spelling correct) upstairs in the General Store that tells how to make other potions. I also found the book in Ebonheart.

I have just been making fatigue potions to raise the alchemy skill, since the higher the alchemy skill level the more effects you will know about the ingredients.

also the more ingredients that have that common effect the more powerful the potion. such as 3 different ingrediants with "restore health" will make a better potion than just 2
