hello!
i've come back to bump this because i have had the humming realization that there is like, maybe one potion in t1 that you can actually Make without the use of an event
i think this kind of sucks! while i understand the intent that a Master Top-Class Alchemist is something that should be able to make potions that are of a hugely high caliber, almost all of them (with the exception of alchemy eyes and fizzy pop (and also elixir of healing which was moved from t2 to t1)) require a chiron (or chiron-like object in the form of the lotus flower which no one has gotten yet), which currently isn't ... something that we exactly have a surplus of. these are all carryovers from spires when spire shards were much more bountiful and it was fine, actually, to use one on a white oil or whatever. as of now, there have been two chirons that have been used on white oils and people are mad about it because they were used in such an anti-climactic way that egging them was probably more preferable.
like, i get it that 'absolute obedience', 'perm healing' and 'you cant roll a 1' are all obscene enough to need a chiron, but there's almost no point in spending the rpp to be tier 1 unless you want the clout of it or think that you will come across a chiron and also the reason to make one of these potions.
