But combining potions in the very early portion of the game actually cuts their effectiveness. For example, you can combine a small health and a small mana potiton to make a small restoration potion, but it only gives you back a percentage of the health/mana you had before. And that percentage, based on your starting and early values, is actually a smaller amount than the real number return of separate health and mana potions.
Later in the game, when you start raising your health and mana through stat increases and items, that changes. But in the early game...? Stick with drinking straight red and blue potions, health and mana, respectively. And don't spend a valuable skill point yet on alchemy.
