Recurrences, Now for Skyrim too! Options

[ghastley]

Since mirocu's done this thread for Oblivion, why don't we have one for Skyrim?

My characters (OK, it's really me) like to have a statue of Dibella in each of their homes. Fortunately it appears that at least a couple respawn, or I'd run out.

Every single alchemy ingredient must be picked.

Period. It's like my characters have an obsession. And if rheyre overencumbered, they'll eat whatever that can if making potions doesn't work. They'll never drop ingredients or food.

I haven't quite got that bad. But I do have a problem with dropping potions I've made. Once they get pricy, it's hard to sell the surplus fast enough, and most of my character's encumbrance is potions. I need to develop a habit of stashing them in a chest near the Alchemy station, but there isn't always one in sight, and I forget.

Which reminds me, Skyrim differs from Oblivion is making all potions weigh 0.5. That often means that alchemy will increase your encumbrance, not relieve it.
