Larian Studios Forums Baldur's Gate III Baldur's Gate III - Help Tips & Tricks Where is the characteristic of potion in alchemy?

Hello,

i think it's so strange when i want to create a new potion we can see the information about the effect on the icon, why?? Yes there is the name but after? How can we measure the utility?



How can i known the exact effect?

Thank you!

according to google translate Huile de combustion is oil of combustion big bang sets everything on fire

Yes but it's just an example. Why the description isn't present? Why have i need to search for that and not showing directly?

its not just you... this is what happens when you don't play test
good news is its very easy to repair with a mod if Larian doesn't get around to it themselves

Did you consider the description is shown? Something under Grenades is not something you drink.

I agree it would be better if the precise potion/grenade/dip effects were shown on the tooltip to help decide whether it’s worth the component cost. A minor niggle for me, but I don’t see any good reason why not. To make the alchemy feel a bit more experimental, maybe? It would be thematically appropriate I suppose, but still I’d prefer details up front.
