The Alchemy craft is the overarching crafting system that covers the Remedies, Reactants, and Cooking disciplines.

All crafts within it utilize the Alchemy skill.

Healing herbs are obtained through foraging. Catalysts are obtained through both foraging and mining. There will be more options in the future that include bone.

Alchemy Quirks

- 100 wisdom appears to reduce crafting times by ~10% for a single product with top-end tools, when compared to 10 wisdom. - Agility and strength may have a lesser effect.

Tools

Alchemy currently uses hand-held tools to practice, such as a mortar and an pestle, mixing stick and cooking pot, and wayerd pyramid. Also included in the society halls are stationary tools to speed up the herb preparation processes, including dry presses and herb grinders.
See Crafting Tools for more details.
