C&N Alchemy is a Vintage Story mod by KenigVovan. C&N Alchemy adds tiered cauldrons, brewing recipes, drinkable and throwable potions, weapon coatings, buffs, debuffs, and antidotes.
Why this mod is worth installing
This mod suits players who want a deeper alchemy loop and more tactical ways to prepare for mining, combat, exploration, and temporal hazards. It also requires effectsHUD and VSImGui.
What C&N Alchemy adds
Alchemy begins with gathering flowers and mushrooms, drying or using them raw, and preparing a suitable cauldron. Bronze cauldrons form the second tier, while iron and meteoric iron provide the third; each brew follows its own temperature and timing requirements.
The craftable Potion Recipes Book records the ingredients, heat, and brewing duration needed for each formula. Finished drinks can improve movement, mining, melee damage, health recovery, temporal stability, temporal charge, fall safety, fire resistance, invisibility, or reflect damage with thorns.
Alchemy also supports offensive preparation. A flask can coat a melee weapon with poison, slowness, or weakness; coatings have limited charges and a chance to trigger on each hit. Antidotes remove these effects according to their strength, while drinking a debuff potion harms the drinker.
Filled flasks can be converted into throwable potions using a buff-specific or debuff-specific ingredient. Thrown flasks break on impact and affect nearby players, but their effects last for less time than those from drinking the same potion.
