Alchemy allows you to turn your collection of herbs, wild mushrooms, crystals, and monster limbs into Potions, Elixirs, Grenades, and Weapon Coatings.

Basic Process

It takes 3 of a material to extract it into its usable ingredient form, either a Sublimate, Salt, Essence, Ash, Vitriol, or Suspension. Recipes call for a specific processed material (e.g. Salts of Mugwort) in addition to a generic (e.g. any Suspension). Note that each alchemical base material converts into only one type of ingredient: this is the danger of the "Extract All Ingredients" button. If you don't have a given generic, it will create one for you from your available materials, possibly burning specific ingredients you may need for a different recipe.
