Not a difficult task. There are harder puzzles in the game than putting together a master writ alchemy solution.
If you don't want to use what's "upstairs", then there are a number of options available:
1. First, double-check you have the most recent version of the PotionMaker add-on installed.
2. There are a few online guides that can help with mixing potions. The two off the top of my head are:
- The UESP ESO Alchemy Calculator; https://esoitem.uesp.net/viewPotions.php
- Sunshine Daydream's Alchemy Chart; http://www.sunshine-daydream.us/ESO/alchemy.html
3. Post the concoction that's needed by the master writ in this forum thread. Hopefully, a friendly master crafter will reply with the reagents needed.
All that said (since you received an alchemy master writ in the first place), I'm assuming a level of sophistication with potion-making that you probably can complete the task without any add-ons or outside aids.
Potion Maker is the good addon. Today it found and produced every potion correctly for about forty master writs. It spends four-five seconds in searching.
Zos screwed up item names recently. Make sure you have the latest update of Potion Maker.
