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.

Same. My potions (and throwables) pouch is now 42 pounds. Arrows (and lockpicks) pouch is another 31 pounds. And my scroll pouch contains 70 unique scrolls, at 3.4 pounds, at a value of more than 15 000 gp. Thats a lot of dead weight to carry around just in case I need it! But I often forget to use them.

I have them split up now. My main dude carries the potions, Gale has the scrolls, my paladin has the throwables. Alchemy and Supply stuff just gets sent straight to camp because why carry it when I only use them at camp? Same with things I'm gonna sell; I put em all in a single bag, send it to camp and only grab it when I am standing in front of a vendor lol
