Severed Hand - Rikki's Poison (spoliers)

Post by Berengiere »

I've run into a snag, and I hope I haven't just screwed things up that'll force me to redo that past couple hours of paying time. I found Rikki on the 4th floor, and she told me about the poison and what to do with it. I have all three ingredients (or at least I think I do): the bonding agent, the virulent liquid, and the tainted demon's blood.

Here's the problem - I ended up fighting and killing all people n the room with the potion lab before I met Rikki, so there's nobody for me to ask permission to use the lab from. I go into the now vacated room, put the three ingredients into the lab, and nothing happens.

Am I missing a step, or do I need to go back and redo everything from a point before I killed Precious and the others?

If you have a character with a high alchemy skill (somewhere in the 15-20 range), you can make the poison yourself. If not, you need to reload and get them to brew the potion for you, or you can kill everyone in that room yourself.

I have a character with an Alchemy of 19, and it's still not letting me make the poison.

Is your character with the high alchemy skill the one placing the items on the table?

Yes, it is.

But I have discovered, by checking the Black Isle boards, that I have the wrong demon blood. I need the pure stuff, not the tainted blood that I currently have.

If I recall correctly, it should be in the kitchen on level 4.
