Oblivion Alchemy Guide

[DarkBioAssassin]

Has anyone noticed that he talks almost as fast as Yahtzee?

[Linkthe1st]

@DarkBioAssassin

In this video?! What's up with you? Ben Croshaw talks WAY faster than I do!

[wouwouwou90]

where can i find master alchemy tools ?

[Madcowskill98]

Thank You soooooooooooooo much!!!!!! Now I can finally heal!

[riffraff67]

This is more of a introduction to alchemy, which is perfect for an alchemy noob (like me). Thank you for making this! Your guide is really easy to follow and has great visuals to support your talking points. The animated graphics add a really good layer of info as well. Fantastic job on the video!

[BeldakSwordhand]

also, this taught me nothing I didn't already know. Hows about you teach us how to make a potion that heals 400+ hp

[BeldakSwordhand]

its venison... not vension you say everything pretty much wrong even though its said hundreds of times in the game itself your videos look professional but you didn't do enough research into the aspect of oblivion that you're trying to teach us about.. tldr you suck at pronouncing and spelling

[crazymuffin32]

@BeldakSwordhand check the date dumbass, try to make the same opinion on his later vids

[freakofnature1yo]

waoh whats up with grapgics and colored map!? i mean..how!?

[Linkthe1st]

@freakofnature1yo

They're just video effects.

[GaleradoCumbuco]

Thanks, this help me a lot!

[FlyingAce1016]

holy crap this guy did his research

[R0gue1gNite]

what a complicated game jeez

[SpiceMaster101]

I Lol'd at 5:48 he couldn't one shot a rat hahaha, i used to know everything about this game 100 in every stat and attribute master of all the factions etc... Then it bugged and i quit :'(

[AxShroudedxSeer]

Hey how about an oblivion house guide? And not just the ones in the cities, people often forget you don't have to buy a house to store your stuff.

[oubsessesdwifallout]

Can u make a homunculus?

[gaz236581]

@oubsessesdwifallout FMA

[09051965hi]

is this music from morrowind?

[mymovienerd]

Being an alchemist is the best way to make good gold starting off if you have the patience to level it up considering that the ingredients are readily available and FREE.

[ruffback]

anyone else think this guy talks ridiculously fast...?

[TooMuchSam]

May I ask, how did you do the book and pages effect?

[mgread51]

I always max out my alchemy and I make potions that has beast of burden effect. Small effect changes mean you can stack the effect. I made it so I could carry more then 500 extra pounds of stuff.

[Linkthe1st]

@Mutatedslug

you know that skyrim is made for the pc too right? That's what i play 90% of my games on...

[Linkthe1st]

@Mutatedslug

I haven't owned an xobx in years...

[ChaosSolider1]

@Mutatedslug If he plays Oblivion,Why wouldn't he play Skyrim?

[superhacker101]

i want to be able to like only make certain thing inside the plant go into my potion like damage heath not restore magic

[SamusTheHedgehog]

i downloaded the Wizard tower DLC, what are the best potions to make from there that are worth selling (i just started, i downloaded all packs)

[Javis586]

I think they should do a study to see if playing Oblivion raises your IQ... because I sware it does.

[DevilDark192]

i like how your videos are organised and you keep going ummm well ummm ummm also you have good quality so we've not got some idiot holding a camera to the screen.

[ceb182]

i really like your commentary because you speak clearly and you know what your going to say before you say it so there is no "umm" in the middle of your sentences.

keep up the good work :)

[elijp61]

will you be able to create weapons in skyrim

[antivain360]

@elijp61 No, i dont think so... Although, Todd Howard stated that it will be possible to upgrade your weapons.

[elijp61]

@antivain360 ok  thnx 4 the nfo

[Marktim84]

will i be fine playing skyrim if i dont get this game, to be honest skyrim look 100% more of what i want in a game but i don want to be lost once i get it

[pkerch00b1]

i never used alchemy in oblivion.....i feel sad now :(

[Greenclw]

What about peony for poisons?

[GamingLegendOJR]

i hope you do a skyrim guide thingy

[MrJay1410]

What's the music at the beginning?

[mefreemel]

@WhatsAnimation

grammar nazi..

[Marianis2305]

Ah I love the music :)

[WhatsAnimation]

Hey William, when you did that cool effect of opening the book, on the front it said 'Fundamentals of Alchemy' however in the game the book is called 'Fundaments of Alchemy' is this a mistake of your's or am I mistaken? Thanks, awesome guide by the way, really helped me :)

[Linkthe1st]

@jds829

There is no "A" in the word oblivion. Check your spelling!

[Brickerage]

@Linkthe1st Everyone knows its AbliviUN. Jeez

[lemming171]

@jds829 words cannot describe how retarded your comment is

[Gegeratsu]

@jds829 Well you are certaintly a smart one. :|

[McBlemmen]

[rechtthemesikan]

@jds829

[jds829]

@rechtthemesikan i only thought it was oblivian cuz i watched a vid and it was spelled oblivian so i based my facts on that

[imdrumzer]

@jds829 your saying he spelled 1 word wrong when he didnt, and in your short comment you spelled 3 words wrong. Good job.

[teehcoh]

@jds829 funny fail is funny

[jds829]

@teehcoh i only thought it was oblivian cuz i watched a vid and it was spelled oblivian so i based my facts on that

[chazzoro]

[CalciteSage]

@jds829 hahahahha

[Gtahullu70]

Aww i always sell the stuff in guilds

[PringleJingle134]

ive never seen that flying creature over there at 3:00 is it quest related?

[omgbrianabanana]

@PringleJingle134 Nope. It's just a monster in Oblivion.

[Ninjassassin509]

@PringleJingle134 its an imp -.-

[PringleJingle134]

@Ninjassassin509 yes, i noticed it when i took a closer look at it. thanks though ;)

[lennarddejong14]

A good Guide

[bojan01010]

Man hes like a talking enciclopedia!

[BoxofLunch420]

good guide but i find it much easier to just loot random chests, bins, and other such thing throughout questing.

[ravenclawtom]

i just started playing obivlion after having bought it about a year ago, and this all seems to over whelming lol

[TalonMercenary]

@ravenclawtom alchemy is very easy to get used to ;) just mix 2 or more plants/ingredients with the same effect e.g restore health and you have made a potion :)

[TweekDash]

VENISON not "Vensun"

[KandIForeverNdAlways]

Really great video! :) Really beneficial! Keep it up :) <3

[Spaceomatic]

I have like 40 books right now in my inventory, should I even bother reading them or should I just get rid of them all?

[BoxofLunch420]

@Spaceomatic just click read quick to see if u will gain a lvl from each book then throw away they are useless after that unless u just like to read all the time

[BrandonMSwenson]

I feel like you have the voice to be the speaker for one of those interesting history channel shows.

[jokujaskasuomesta]

@linkthe1st can you make mass effect walktrouhgs

[jokujaskasuomesta]

@linkthe1st can you make

[lolgam200]

4:15 The purple area looks like a fetus 0.o

[StefanSrbPfc]

Man u know how to explain ppl about this game :)

[lennarddejong14]

This is a great guide. Now I am an lvl 75 alchemist

[Epzmah]

@applesauceburger he did it right? not at all half right

[hackisucker]

you should add that alot of these ingridients can be found in the arcane univercity

[trumpetman338]

Its funny how easy it is to miss things in this game, on my first play through oblivion i didnt even know there was such a thing as alchemy.

[hoolioscoolios]

Great vid man!

[brandonx239]

make more plz

[ItsMeMrMako]

I'm a master alchemist and you can buy a 2 gold fly amantia cap and use just that to make a 80 gold potion (if you have good mercentile skill) i make so much really easily but it took ages to get to master... :P good video.

[GiantEnemyCrab63]

@chosenone27990 save before you enjoy it....

[Beats1976]

good vid thanks

[GiantEnemyCrab63]

Poison apple + greenmote

all im gonna say.....

[Eglyde]

Thanks again

[19641freeman]

very well done video, thanks

[mcownagedapwnage]

lol its like a freaking cookbook excellent guide, link!

[Eglyde]

What do u need to make a potion of invisibiity?

[kingkong14957]

my dudes got blood lung its messing with his endurance and i havent tried it yet but i hear that u have to have a download for the church thing to work any suggestions

[Linkthe1st]

@kingkong14957

No, you need no download. Using an alter at any church will remove all negative effects from your character (if your fame is higher than your infamy).

Alternatively though you can drink a cure disease potion to remove any diseases from your character.

[kingkong14957]

@Linkthe1st thanks dude i ate some mandrake root cleared it right up thanks for the help though appreciate it

[kittynamedkitty]

can you make a cure disease potion?

[MWgamer]

@kittynamedkitty

of course, just find two ingredients with that feature.

[whtisurproblem]

@kittynamedkitty

yes

[guisspino]

@kittynamedkitty yep

[MWgamer]

where can I find those chairs/tables with necessary equipment for alchemistry! Please help, can't find it. :(

[fruitblood]

Thanks, Man. I've played through this game so many times without using Alchemy before, but now I think I might give it a whirl.

[XlegendWalkthroughs]

Thanks helped a lot.

[alohaThao]

0:00 to 0:25 is Hikari no go 's end theme :D

[DJBoy37]

Your guide videos are pretty sweet

[Beves640]

Such an epic part of the game when you first exit the sewers and you are looking across the lake at a perfect sunrise. Just epic.

[WiiKey]

OR, you can just go to inns and buy the food...

Nuff' Said. :D

[mi6alex]

can u do a guide on dungeons and whereabouts please ive seen most of you guides very good

[AghastRaven]

a very charming and informative video i must say.

[vids4games]

i wish i had the equipment to record videos, my greatest wish is to just make oblivion walkthrough videos.

[TheNicksSkitsShow]

Hey does anyone know if you drink the potion called "human blood" if that counts as feeding? Thanks in advance ive been a vampire before and it was worth it.

[TheBronf]

@TheNicksSkitsShow no it doesn't tried it my self

[greatdog5]

dude how u make willpower and strenght restore i need em bad my stats got damaged >.< freaking glooms reply pls

[darkzonoya]

is there anyway to make a poisen apple?

[super6plx]

a motor and pestle?

there's an R after the "mo" of "mortar" for a reason. it's more-tar not broom broom motor in a car. lol.

[t0wn513]

LOLZ. Lady's Mantle, sounds like a nickname for a vagina.

[UberMenschNowFilms]

Quit messing with alchemy before you lose an arm and leg! :3

[AugustasPhD]

@UberMenschNowFilms lolz

don't forget having you're brother's soul put into a suit of in-animate armor :P

[gunnari14]

I just dont understand alchemy or the tools I suppose to use in it. I just collect random flowers and stuff and randomly trying to mix em to an potion, usually I get fatigue potions that suck. Id really would like to understand it.

[RussianAndre]

I have a 57 Alchemy Skill, its fun and easy

[Roachdeadeye]

which one do you

[Roachdeadeye]

which one do you have

[MrMoorasPowrocil]

at my first playhrough i was like "oh god....potions in oblivion sux! then can only heal 20-50 HP!!" at my acctual playhrough after i maxed out alchemy "wow, potions in this game are overpowered! 2 potions (i think its 12 health per sec for about 35 seconds) and i habe full health "

[tjl1297]

FUCKING THANK YOU! IVE ALWAYS BEEN WONDERING HOW TO MAKE A HEALTH POTION AND NOW I KNOW!THANK GOD!!!!

now i just need get me another copy

(sold mine long ago, regretting it :()

[eatincupcakes123]

This is a very good guide. good job and thank you

[c4ke333ter2]

lol, once your speed is over 60 you can chase deer down with a mace

[DetectiveTective]

And also, alchemy was one of the successful ways in the game that helped me get rich quick. While on the novice level, I literally made HUNDREDS of Restore Fatigue potions and sold them back at the Imperial City. By doing this, I raise both my alchemy and my Mercantile skill (which is a damn CHORE to raise! It's FAAR worse than athleticism in my opinion!)

[DetectiveTective]

3:54 the yellow region looks like the head of a snake! lol

[DetectiveTective]

3:28 Hmm... I never used a bow and arrow to kill venison. What I do is shoot the spell flare at it and wait for it to die. lol. It also helps save me a lot of stamina, so when it gets too far away, I can just run up to it a little more and then try again.

[bloodsuckern]

PRO TIP ON GATHERING FLOWAS IN THE WILD. Options Video> grass fade drag that shit down to 0 (the left) Tadda. btw if youre looking for those yellow Lady's Mantle look for tall yellow flowers like 70% of the time theres a bunch of Lady's mantle Right next to them or on the other side of a rock.

[c4ke333ter2]

@bloodsuckern or type tg in the console to disable grass

[TheCraftyGamer]

i could comment over and over using the full 500 characters and still not express how much i like this guide and how good it is, im gonna like, sub, and favorite incase i need to come back to it. thank you for the guide, have a nice day and good luck in the future!

[Aceofthedaysdawn]

I fucking love your tutorials

[Woodstaman]

Alchemy is definitly the quickest skill to level... 10 mins much?

[Term1874]

no stuttering or jerking in this video, what specs you running ?

I've a fairly beefy system and I still get the stuttering whilst moving around outside :(

[Macroman23]

Im level forty and master alchemist yet i still hardly ever find master alchemist equipment and im in and out of dungions all ive found is a master calcinater in the wizards tower in the theives guild questline

[ramjet81]

One of the best features in the game

[DevilDark192]

So how long will this take?

[ethanzuke]

where do you get a mortar and pestle?

[chriswnorris7]

i never got into alchemy. It was too time consuming so i just resorted to duplication

[haarbal1997]

With the first potion at flax seeds with it. then you get feather.

[morrowind2500]

What does feather do??

[Linkthe1st]

@morrowind2500

It "feathers" away weight so you can carry more.

ex:

A feather 75 potion will subtract 75 weight from your inventory, for a limited time.

[slipknot119356]

@Linkthe1st doesnt it add 75 to your possible amount of weight? not subtract any?

[Linkthe1st]

@slipknot119356

no the strength attribute increases your maximum carry limit.

Feather on the other hand subtracts weight you already carry.

If you feather 75 weight while only carrying 60 you lose 15 points of feather because the game can't compute negative numbers for weight.

[bobajango55]

@Linkthe1st

You are simply the best walkthrougher and guidemaker I have seen on Youtube.

[Roxashasnoheart]

@Linkthe1st i hear cairn bollete is found where people died

[Linkthe1st]

@Roxashasnoheart

Not true, they just grow in caves mostly.

[rarelyknow]

alchemy sounds to hard :\

[GlowyKangaroo]

I love aloe vera juice :D

[Ragefire11]

Oblivion is a real RPG,i fucking love it :D

[ArctusCanusLupus]

@Ragefire11 You can say that again =3 Bethesda has like won the best RPG every single time they release a new elders scrolls game, their games always go platinum, I bought the original xbox JUST to play morrowind, the games are all legendary, I cant wait for the new one to come out, 11/11/11 cant wait. 

[TheNerd90]

@Ragefire11 Ive been pissed off so much that i lost it and cant find it im busting to play it

[mamanettie]

@Ragefire11 skyrim will cause a small portion of your brain to explode once you sit down and start playing it, that small portion happens to be your general memory of how to get up and sit down, thus not being able to stop playing ;)

[Ragefire11]

@mamanettie Haha,nice one :P

[disturbed360900]

@mamanettie extremely well said my friend :L

[499BANNANS]

whats the song in the beginning?

[deadtacojr]

Just saying this for a bit of constructive criticism. Loved the video and you explain the details very well. But you may want to consider slowing down your speaking a bit. Even if that is your natural speaking speed. The recording muffles the beginning and ends of some words and makes it hard to understand. Just saying. Otherwise, very nice videos. (By the way, I know this is over a year old.)

[LockemShoto]

Do you think I'd be able to get through the game with just Alchemy alone?

(I'm new at Oblivion >.< don't make fun of me too much)

[emraldbones]

@LockemShoto honestly no i think you need to get atleast journeyman in any combat skills to complete and oblivion is great game to get into so good luck for the journeys ahead =)

[Baz0kable]

@LockemShoto you might have problems if you are using poisons on undead or argonians.

[lolxjks]

@LockemShoto in oblivion no but if you were playing morrowind yes

[IronAlpha10]

thumbs up if oblivion should have multiplayer

[Tabe112]

I just love walking thru the woods of Oblivion. Sneaking up on a deer and quietly drawing my bow, and BUANG, of it goes, THUD. Yay! I rush forward to collect the Venison, one of the easiest Restore Health (wich i know) ingredients there is to find.

[TheKornonthekob]

its hard to choose between oblivion or n64 as my favorite, oblivion is more fun now but ill never quit mariokart 64

[MultiFrostify]

I made a potion with water walking effects and called it Jesus Juice.

[chimar8]

i need help raising my conjuration skill

[dockside2012]

@chimar8 If you joined the mages guild and did all the recommendations, or if you have the Frostcrag Spire, you can make a conjuration spell that costs only 1 magicka and just keep casting it over and over.

[LlanosDR]

lol i need some effin magicka potions

[snsfnp]

How do you make a poison of paralyze?

[MultiFrostify]

@snsfnp Why you want to paralyze yourself?

[nekem89]

@MultiFrostify

Well, I guess for roleplay reasons without mods, Like they wan't to simulate the sleeping, but too lazy to do some drain fatigue on self spells/potions or have too high fatigue.

Well theese are my guesses they MAY not be right.

[Taaplari]

snsfnp

/

Unfortunately best paralyze poison is only 3 seconds. I have very strong poison in this video (4:20) which has paralyze in it:

watch?v=4wCrmTMvLoo

[hjke123]

can you keep making oblivion videos plz i really love them and i was thinking maybe you could make a vid on the vile lair because i got it and i was so confused i had to go on youtube to find out and either the qualiy was bad or barley explained it plus few videos.

[SamuraiDragon26]

Is this on xbox 360???

[darkarchangel186]

dude, you make the best guides ever. Thank you so much and keep up the good work

[Shugo489]

The intro song is the opening from Hikaru no Go, right?

[AtheistLurker]

A cool intro? Where am I? Is this earth?
