Potions come in various sizes, shapes and cause several effects, including healing, providing boosts to ability scores, or allowing you to speak to animals, for example, without requiring the Druid or Ranger Class Feature associated with that ability.

Reagents are necessary elements to craft Poultices, Potions, Elixirs, Poisons, and Bombs. Depending on the recipes you have found previously, or even when acquiring certain Reagents, you will be able to craft many other useful things, like charms and the overpowering Insanity’s Kiss.

Reagents come in various forms: Ashes, Vitriols, Sublimates, Suspensions, Essences, and Salts. By extracting certain Reagents, there is a chance you might learn certain Potion recipes.

Remember that Reagents and ingredients are shared among Characters through the ‘Magic Pockets’ feature. But crafted Potions and Items will always appear in the inventory of the character selected upon crafting the items.

Where to find Potion Ingredients in Baldur’s Gate 3

Potion Ingredients are easily one of the most abundant resources in Baldur’s Gate 3. But, to be able to spot them easily, we recommend you always press the ‘Alt’ key to highlight plants, minerals, mushrooms, and contextual objects.

Plants, mushrooms, and tree bark are abundant in open nature during exploration. Certain rare Ingredients will require a high Perception, Survival, or Nature roll to spot, so be sure you invest in those skills with some of your recurrent characters when exploring the Sword Coast. All Ingredients are stored in your Alchemy Pouch, so it doesn’t stack in your regular inventory.

Certain Reagents and Ingredients can only be found inside caves, dungeons, or even dropped from enemies, mostly monsters and creatures. Minerals can also be found when exploring underground locations or ransacked from basements, alchemy laboratories, and evil wizards’ lairs. Pretty straightforward. Same advice: always tap ‘Alt’ and you will have no problem finding them.

Alchemy Pouch Baldur's Gate 3Larian Studios

Potion Ingredients, Reagents, and even Poisons and Potions can be bought from most NPC traders, so be sure to check their inventories if you are looking for a particular Ingredient that you are having a hard time finding.

Where to find Potion Recipes in Baldur’s Gate 3

Potion Recipes in Baldur’s Gate 3 can be found in three different ways. The first one is collecting Ingredients and passing an automatic ‘Nature,’ ‘Medicine,’ ‘Survival,’ or ‘Insight’ check. Most of your characters currently active in your party will pass this without issues.

The second way is to read everything that you find. Books, notes, letters, and such can be found all around the Sword Coast, Avernum, and the Underdark. So, be sure to read everything, and don’t only read it with your main character.

Use the Inventory menu to share every book and piece of information with your other characters. That way, others can add information and additional ‘Skill check’ chances to gain certain hidden knowledge.

The third way is to extract Ingredients and turn them into Reagents. Most of the Potion Recipes can be learned that way if the character that is crafting has enough Intelligence. So, don’t hoard those Ingredients, extract until you have only Reagents and you’ll learn all those recipes in no time.
