Alc writs not working properly.

norebb16_ESO · September 2017

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has had this problem. Log in with daily's from previous days and complete the crafting writs only to have every writ be available for the new day ACCEPT alchemy.

This is a new issue I've encountered and quite frankly it's very annoying.

The most valuable of the items you can get writs and surveys for not working properly....

I haven't experienced it yet but others have.

I had that happen after the latest DLC and patch, but after a day and full cycle of doing the writs it started to perform correctly.
My frustration however is completing the Alchemy Master writs. I have time and time again tried to complete one (used the Alchemy calculator and countless combinations of reagents) and still can't fabricate the required 20 potions to complete the quest.
What am I doing wrong !!!!

If it's asking for 20 then it wants a posion. So use the Oils not the Waters (solvents)

I tend to ignore the writs that ask for posion unless I know the exact recipe.

Poisons are easy though. Same thing you would do for the potion just switch the reagent from water to poison.

I have had this be a recurring issue though since the last patch. Even after full cycles I'm still having the issue, it amounts to if I don't get the quests every day and do them every day before reset I lose my alc writ...

Without an exact, step-by-step description of what you are doing, I doubt that anyone can advise as to what you are doing wrong. But the first thing is to be sure that you have enough of the required solvent and reagents on hand to make the potion or poison.

Have you tried the add-on "Potion Maker"? It will also craft a Poison that is specified by a daily Alchemy Crafting Writ, but, in my experience, the player must choose the Poison feature on the UI before checking the box that tells Potion Maker to search for potions or for poisons.

Update: this has been happening a lot to me the past few days.
