Alchemy for Skyrim ® App Reviews

I bought this app being very skeptical, but once I opened it and used one of the recipes, I honestly thought that this guy worked at Bethesda. If you want to learn about alchemy, dont be skeptical like me, and buy this app, the price is nothing once you see the effects.

Probably the best skyrim app out there. Very useful

I used this app frequently with past characters and it is a great way to discover ingredient properties and maximize your potions. Since Ive installed Perkus Maximus, however, I dont use the app as much. Perkus has made significant changes to the game and the recipes in this app do not always give the intended result. Fortify smithing is one example. With Perkus installed, following the app recipe now creates a brawling potion instead. This is, of course, no fault of the app, but I do hope that there is a Perkus friendly update in the works. With that in mind, Im rating it 4 of 5. If a Perkus update comes in, then I would have to consider it a 5.

This game is four years old, and Ive never ONCE. Used alchemy because it was always very tedious and complicated from my perspective when you could use Enchanting or Smithing and buy your potions. I bought this app with extra money and hope for a fresh play through, little did I know that this gem of an app made alchemy seem petty to me, it was easy and seamless. This app is very great for those who maybe play without alchemy and have thought about using it.

Kudos to the developer.. The app is easy to use and accurate. It does not feel like cheating since it works like a "tome" of alchemy.

I will never play Skyrim without this app again. Amazing.

There are other calculators out there including free and online but this one is very convenient and full-featured. Exploration is easy - looking up the effects of ingredients and reverse look up based on effect. I especially like the ability to create combinations yourself - and excellent UI makes it very easy. And if you’re willing to put in the effort to create your inventory in the app it pays off in the ability to make money/alchemy skill/speech skill. Once the inventory is entered the app shows a list of potions you can make sorted by price. Once you make the potion you can subtract each ingredient from your inventory with one touch. I would love to see more info about ingredients - where to find large quantities in Skyrim, what they look like in the environment. But even without that information this is an excellent app

This developer must really love Skyrim, and so do I. His apps are great. Theyre polished and functional. Developer, is there any hope of you making an app with maps? Id love to have maps of the dungeons/cities/inside places. It would take a lot of work, but it would be really helpful.
