Alchemy Items
Alchemical products, sometimes called compounds or admixtures, are a special type of consumable item created with the alchemy skill. These items represent the pinnacle of old world chemistry mixed with a bit of magic.
Alchemy can produce a wide variety of game effects often allowing those without magic to act as though they did. Some effects are the exclusive domain of alchemy as well, such as stopping the curse of lycanthropy or curing diseases.
Blade poisons, ingested poisons, and thrown poisons all require the herbalist skill to use. If a character attempts to use any of these types of alchemy compounds they fail to use the item successfully and suffer the effects as if the item were used on them.
Production Points and Related Skills
Production points are used to create consumables such as potions, scrolls, and alchemical compounds. A character only spends production points when you first check-in for an event. In order to create items you'll have to learn to use the preproduction system. Characters can purchase additional production points each event for 3 coin per point (this includes the cost to use these points to produce items). Some items may also be turned in at check-in for additional production points.
Tinkering is used with production points for the creation of trap tags which are consumed by traps when they go off.
Characters are restricted to a cap of 20 production points from all sources.
