📋 About This Mod

╘══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛

╒═══════════════════════════════════════════╕

Blacksmith-made potions for the skilled Warrior!

╘═══════════════════════════════════════════╛

╢What is this?

This is a semi-small addition to smithing that adds new potions/poisons in the form of "Oils".

These oils do the typical effects you'd expect for potions/poisons with my own personal tweaks, and are crafted using mostly smithing ingredients. Some examples are:

╒═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╕

   Oil: Health I: A restorative oil to be applied to wounds. Restores Health every second for 10 seconds. (Does not stack.)

Oil: Fire I: A fiery oil. Causes fire damage with every strike. Applies to a weapon and wears off after ten strikes.

Oil: Waterwalking: A light but dense oil to be applied to the soles of boots. Allows you to walk on the surface of water for 30 seconds.

Oil: Adrenaline: An oil that pulses with power. Once it is poured on the tongue, your reflexes are greatly enhanced. Time is temporarily slowed.

╘═════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════╛

(Complete list of Oils in the "Docs" tab if you don't want them to be a surprise.)

╢Wait, what?

I like playing Warriors. But the problem with playing a "true" warrior (ie non-magic), is that you are cut off from the schools of magic and nifty things like enchanting and alchemy. Not to mention the conundrum of how to keep yourself healed.

Enter Smithing Oils!

╢How does this work?

For starters, this mod adds a new crafting station called . This station is exclusively portable.

To acquire it, simply craft it at any forge. Once you craft yours, you are ready to start!
