BG3 Wiki snapshot retrieved 2026-10-24
This is the source-listed alchemy and quest-forge subset, not every consumable or item transformation. Source ingredient is not an additional consumed ingredient for consumables. Generic extract is represented as a selector class. Mithral Ore is limited in-world to two pieces per source; the planner does not encode that world limit. Moulds are reusable tools, not consumed. Sussur recipes require an unmodified base weapon and activated furnace; these states are conditions.
