Protection Potions

I've been trying to make potions that give physical and spell resistance using Mudcrab Chitin, Beetle Scuttle and Bugloss
Theoretically, it should work. Chitin + Scuttle have Increase armor, and Chitin + Bugloss have Increase Spell Resist.
I get spell resist potions, but the moment I add Scuttle, it turns into a physical resist potion, and the spell resist is lost :(
Anyone know if this is a bug?

    This is NOT TRUE. Any effect on two or more will work...

    UNLESS...

    Scuttle has lower spell resist whick kills one of the buff spell resists.

    It does.

    OP that is your prob. The negative trait on the scuttle

    Yeah, frustrating, I've been attempting to craft a "Restore Stamina/Protection/Vitality" potion, but nothing, really, just Protection and Vitality on the same potion would be AMAZING!!!!!!!!!

    Minor Protection 8% damage reduction
    Major Vitality 30% extra healing

    In one potion!

    @ZOS_JessicaFolsom

    Was this intentional? the fact you can't have Protection and Vitality in the same potion?? I think tanks need a bone thrown their way :D

    That combo of mudcrab chitin, beetle scuttle and bugloss has 2 of each property: Increase armor, Increase spell resist and protection.
    So it should give a potion that Increases both physical and spell resist, as well as 8% less damage from protection.
    It's the ultimate defensive potion, but when I try to craft it, I only get Physical resist and 8% less damage :(
    The spell resist just gets lost for some reason.

    I don't think this was intended, as some of the new reagents seem to be bugged. When I was unlocking the properties, some just did unlock, even tho they were combined with other stuff off the same properties.

    As for the scuttle canceling out the spell resist,
    I've made a potion that had 1 negative trait, and 2 positives, and the positive didn't get canceled out by the single negative.
