I present the list of 10 common alchemy potions in ESO.(links below will take you to the potions description)
Alchemy in ESO, and why do I need it?
Alchemy is a crafting profession in Elder Scrolls Online, that allows creating potions to add a quick boost to player statistics, as well as other beneficial effects. Potions and poisons are primarily used in combat, and the alchemy skill line in ESO is substantial, because of itsMedicinal Use IIIpassive (Unlocked at Alchemy Skills Rank 50) that provides the player with almost 100% uptime on the potion’s effect.
To start crafting or level up alchemy, locate one of the alchemy tables, that can be found in the big cities of Tamriel.
Example. Alchemy station’s location in Vivec City (Vvardenfell zone).
