Potion fail, fail

understeer
I noticed that if you fail a potion combo the game wont remeber it (that it will fail)like in skyrim?

Is this a bug or they thought they would like you to write up a matrix table log book or just make potions that you know will work?

    If you know all the reagents effects and it still says unknown result then that will fail. I have almost all the reagent effects learnt so its easy now to remember.

    The problem is during the process of discovering those effects. Not what happens after you know them all. Skyrim, for example, would grey out ingredients from an already attempted combination that produced no results.

    I agree. The game should remember which ones fail. It would be nice to have an addon that could do this in its stead, but I haven't found any.

    There are multiple tools out there that can help you discover all possible combinations, then just don't combine ones that don't match :smile:

    Here's one that I use, works well for me.
