📋 About This Mod
The vanilla Alchemy interface only shows technical flavor text and doesn't explain what a Potion, Elixir, Coating or Grenade actually does. This mod adds clear, practical descriptions of each item's real purpose alongside the original text.
Alchemy Better Descriptions by SwissFred
In the vanilla game, the Alchemy interface often leaves players guessing. Potions, Elixirs, Coating Oils and Grenades are presented with ornate, technical flavor text,
but the interface rarely explains what the item actually does or why you might want to use it.
This mod enhances the Alchemy experience by adding clear, practical descriptions to every Potion, Elixir, Coating Oils and Grenades.
Each item now includes a straightforward explanation of its real purpose what it affects, when it’s useful, and how it benefits your character while still preserving the original technical description for flavor.
The result is an Alchemy menu that is both informative and immersive, helping players make smarter choices without breaking the game’s aesthetic or tone.
