📋 About This Mod
UPDATE: Everyone should update to version 3. 0, the scripts are smoother and it gets rid of changes to the static cooking pot in game (thanks to katnap for the report) Requires Elys Uncapper & OBSE v 12 or above. Recommended that you use Legendary Abilities to add benefits for all other skills. After using Nanites Alchemy mod for Elys\' Uncapper, I was very happy with the gradual benefits he added to alchemy skills over 100 but wanted to be able to use more powerful apparati to make even more powerful potions. This mod adds a series of quests and crafting sequences that allow the player to obtain increasingly powerful alchemical apparati. Eventually when the player reaches the 200 skill limit, he or she will be able to get the most powerful apparatus possible in the game. After you activate the mod a message will pop-up when you reach the necessary skill level telling you how to proceed. For installation instructions and credits, please see the readme.
Grandmaster of Alchemy is a quest mod for Oblivion that requires Elys Uncapper and replaces Nanites Legendary Alchemy. It lets players craft increasingly powerful alchemical apparatus as their alchemy skill exceeds 100, culminating in the most powerful tools. With 431 endorsements and 11,529 downloads, it's a niche but well-received addition for dedicated alchemists.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid community support with 431 endorsements and over 11k downloads.
- Fills a gap for high-level alchemists who want more powerful tools beyond vanilla.
- Simple concept: progress past 100 alchemy and unlock better gear.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2008 — likely outdated and may have compatibility issues with modern Oblivion setups.
- Requires Elys Uncapper, an external dependency that adds setup complexity.
- Replaces another mod (Nanites Legendary Alchemy), so you can't use both.
For Oblivion players who max out alchemy and want a reason to keep pushing past 100. If you're a completionist alchemist who loves crafting the best gear, this is for you. Skip if you prefer gameplay overhauls or don't want to deal with extra dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure Elys Uncapper is installed and configured to allow skills above 100, or this mod won't work.
- Since this mod replaces Nanites Legendary Alchemy, uninstall that mod first to avoid conflicts.
- Check the mod's readme or forum threads for any known issues with your Oblivion version, as it's from 2008.
