In a recent post on Reddit, a user named FullGarbageAlchemist claims to have found the holy grail of poisonpotion recipes inSkyrim. FullGarbageAlchemist begins the post by giving a brief description and background about their thought process and how they ended up creating the recipe. The player then describes the potion and the ingredients required to make it. The item in question is called the Poison of Lingering Damage Health, and it has a surprisingly long list of effects.
This potion first causes 60 points of poison damage for 10 seconds and weakens the target to the same infliction by 90%. It damages stamina by 60 points and causes 90 points of concentrated poison damage, before dealing another 90 points of poison damage. It weighs 0.5 and is valued at an impressive 2021. According to FullGarbageAlchemist, this poison potion caneasily kill dragons inSkyrim, and the user appropriately names it “Dragon Deleter.”
Fans interested in making the poison need 1 each of the following ingredients - Scathecraw, Chokeberry, and Deathbell. FullGarbageAlchemist claims that Scathecraw is found everywhere on Solstheim and Deathbell is commonly found in the city of Morthal. However, it looks like players will need toupgrade toSkyrim Anniversary Editionif they want access to the final ingredient Chokeberry. It’s a part of the Rare Curios Creation that adds 51 ingredients from previousThe Elder Scrollsgames toSkyrim, so players will need access to Creation Club content to use it.
OtherSkyrimfans seem incredibly impressed by this poison potion recipe, and it looks like many have saved the post to try it out. FullGarbageAlchemist also asks if users can create the same potion with paralysis instead of stamina damage, so perhapsa deadlier potion exists somewhere inSkyrim.
