Can't Sell Potions and Herbs?

[Raeldor]

This seems like a basic thing that I should be able to do. Also, when brewing potions and seeing i have a missing ingredient, I can't mouse-over the recipe to see what it's source is. Feels like the UI needs some work. I hope they make it better over time.

On another note: who thought waiting for 15 seconds for a health potion is a good idea. This is mobile game garbage.

I would definitely appreciate the option to sell my potions at the very least.

It boils down to, you have a small window where you haven't bought all the recipes and tables where you also still need money, but then that window closes and you never need money again.

Being able to sell stuff would be kind of nice, sure, but you also get way more money than you need. There's no money sinks after you buy the tables, so it'd be a little pointless.

It's also the bit that the potion makers in the game sell products people use in life-or-death situations. Noone sane would sell student experiments for that purpose. Ingredients should be fair, though, but you also get an endless free supply of them, so...

Well, you shouldn't be able to make them for free. The sourcing of ingredients and effort required to make them should balance with the profit made for selling them so it's not easy money. With most open world games these days is the expectation of a balanced virtual economy.

Yea, the potions cost materials.



There are some materials that you cannot farm on your own in the Room of Requirements.

Ashwinder eggs, Spider fangs, Horklump juice and some others you can only get while going around the world

ashwinder eggs are in the coastline version of your rooms for your beasts. each of those rooms are huge and have areas off to the side with resources in them, i think.

That would break the economy early game it's so easy to mass produce potions & plants

I think you can find the source of each ingredient in the collections menu. Selling potions that you can make millions of for free wouldnt really make sense, but it would make you rich.

So would owning a shop. But from what I understand it's only useful for selling your gear you don't need.
I just think for it to really pay off it should give you an income stream. Just to make the quest worthwhile.
Granted I don't have PS5 but I've watched the videos so it looks like all you really get is just a place to sell loot but no income stream which would actually make it worthwhile.

I own the PS5 version and set up my own shop. The dialogue gives the impression that you WILL be able to sell items such as potions, plants and beast items. However, once you actually open, you can only sell gear at like a 5% markup. Pretty disappointing.
