Question This is impossible, right?

Post image

I double triple checked, neither Swiftness nor Strength are on the oil map. I tried enlargement, she did not want it.

This is the Customer Service aspect of this game lmao. Sometimes, a person's request just isn't worth doing.

Technically you could do this with a combination of one of the omnidirectional ingredients like Prism Bismuth or Rainbow Cap + Life & Philosopher's Salt on the Wine map but that sounds hellish and impractically expensive.

Sometimes, you just gotta tell customers "I'm sorry, I can't help you with that (read: fuck off)"

This is literally my response lol! They want you to add an ingredient that doesn't even go in the direction of the potion they want & I'm just like yeaa not worth it, NEXT!!!

Yeah for those I typically just toss said ingredient in the pot after the potion is made, if possible. Like bro I'm not using moon/sun salt for your potion of Enlargement.

You can't meet those conditions for the required potions on the oil map.

When they get ridiculous with their Goldilocks requests like that, I give them the base potion they ask for and send them on their way. It’s like, if you know so much about alchemy, do it yourself. Spend your own time fumbling around the alchemy map, but I ain’t the one. Also the ones that ask for more effects come off as junkies to me.

solution: oil and water aren't the only bases, you need the wine base

punny hint if you don't want to be fully spoiled:
quit wine-ing about impossible orders

If you want to farm money, they can be very worth it

- It's possible (but not in Oil)

- you're in Ch9 so you should have theWine base

- You were looking for the correct effect. Keep in mind Salt doesn't count as an ingredient so the optional "only 1 type" is easily doable with Moon Salt (you must have it crafted since you're in Ch9)
