Beyond anything else, the task of gathering the herbs is what makes alchemy hard. I never seem as many herbs as I would like
Not too long ago I had a huge stockpile of low level herbs, but in an effort to gain more inventory space I made a huge batch of low level potions and mailed them out to several of our low level members. So now if anyone need some low level potions I will have to collect the ingredients again. Gathering the low level stuff is not hard, I just have to find time for it.

Check out the page above. My Alchemy skill is slightly above 200, so I can make many of the potions that are level 200 or lower. I can’t make all of them because several of those recipes are rare loot drops. If you find an alchemy recipe I will gladly buy it from you.
If you can get the ingredients for any potion I can make it for you for free. Many of the low level stuff I can make for free even if you don’t have the ingredients, it is just a matter of me going out and collecting the ingredients. I typically sell healing and greater healing potions at the IF auction house… basically if it uses briarthorn, bruisweed or better it means money to me because with those ingredients I can make potions that are in demand on the AH..
Rho and I usually have the lowest prices on the auction house. If you do not see my stuff on the AH, tell me exactly what you need and I will make sure I ship the potions to you before I upload them to the AH.
