Invisibility potions much weaker than any other potion I make...

Post by enwar3 »

So I always fortify my intelligence before making potions, and most of the potions I make end up much better than the "exclusive" class of potions you can buy in the game. However, when I make invisibility potions, the effect is for less time than the exclusive potion of invisibility. It's even more disconcerting because the potion I make is worth 932gp, much more than the exclusive potion, but it still has a shorter effect.

Does this make sense to anybody? Is it the ingredients I'm using or something?

It's an Illusion spell, dependent (in part) on Personality. I'll bet that your Personality isn't that high, and I'm pretty sure that does have an effect on the potion, if not as much as the spell.

I think potions only go off your alchemy skill and intelligence. Try making a charm or chameleon potion and see what happens with those.

Possible point. I'm curious about the result, too.
