Potions and Perks

[Shadeybladey]

I always thought Physician and Benefactor stacked.

 

But I was looking in the CK

 

 

Benefactor Beneficial Potions +25% stronger

Function Name Function Effect

EPAlchemyEffectHasKeyword Keyword: "MagicAlchBeneficial"

EPAlchemyGetMakingPoison NONE

1.25x

 

Physician Healing Potions (Restore Health/Magicka/Stamina) +25% stronger

Function Name Function Effect

EPAlchemyEffectHasKeyword Keyword: "MagicAlchRestoreHealth"

EPAlchemyEffectHasKeyword Keyword: "MagicAlchRestoreStamina"

EPAlchemyEffectHasKeyword Keyword: "MagicAlchRestoreMagicka"

1.25x

 

 

So, with both Perks, will Restore potions be 1.5x as powerful, or do they also need the Keyword: "MagicAlchBeneficial"?

 

 

Cheers!

If you look at the keywords attached to the magical effects themselves, you will see that the effects covered by the Physician perk are also covered by the Benefactor perk, but not necessarily the other way around. By design, Physician only applies to restore health, restore stamina, and restore magicka. Benefactor applies to those effects as well as all other beneficial effects.

Yes, so they stack for Restore potions.
