A gaming sub free from the hype and oversaturation of current releases, catering to gamers who wait at least 12 months after release to play a game. Whether it's price, waiting for bugs/issues to be patched, DLC to be released, don't meet the system requirements, or just haven't had the time to keep up with the latest releases.

If you're making them yourself, the effect you want is called (for example) "Fortify Smithing". In this case, you can mix a potion containing Glowing Mushroom and Bisterwort (found in caves). You can also check alchemist vendors, they may have "Blacksmith's" potions of various names.

For healing, you want Fortify Restoration followed by a healing spell - though Restore Health might work better depending on your use case. My usual healing potion is Wheat+Blue Mountain Flower, both ingredients really easy to find, and the potion also temporarily increases maximum health.

Thank you so much! I'll try making it. Funny story time, there was a time when I capture all the blue butterflies in Whiterun and Riverdale they did not come back for few days. I needed to raise my potion skills and I don't want to travel different places because I got lazy. So I end up doing the cheese way to get ingredients. By punching the merchants and then resets if they don't have the items what I'm looking for.
