Elexir of Hypnotic Suggestion

I got this schematic and ... since it brings me great joy in crafting stuff I don't usually use... I was wondering of the following phenomenon that stroke me while I was at it:

Firstly the "substance" appears in my inventory like a small black dot - no texture for this little techy fellow?

And second ... the description points I can use it on friends and foes. I'm not actually too sure what it does to foes, but I couldn't use it on my party members either... not that I couldn't it just didn't seem to work - turned them both hostile. Anyway... do I need TA(Technical Aptitude) to use this thing? My guess is that simply because I am a mage with 100 MA( Do not ask how many manuals I had to buy and how I could keep them in my inventory to craft the damn thing).

One more thing that is not related - The Caladon Crusading Chain doesn't seem to increase my maximum followers by 1 as it is described. :?

That's a bug.

And second ... the description points I can use it on friends and foes.

That'd be my guess.

( Do not ask how many manuals I had to buy and how I could keep them in my inventory to craft the damn thing).

Oh, yeah. I've been there.

One more thing that is not related - The Caladon Crusading Chain doesn't seem to increase my maximum followers by 1 as it is described. :?

Another bug.

Supposedly there's a unofficial patch that fixes these two bugs and some others but I've never been able to find it.

For official and unofficial patches and fixes, check Terra Arcanum and Dimensions of Arcanum. I believe those two sites contain every available fix that has been released for Arcanum.
