I've been thinking and got this great idea for herbs.
First, herbs should grow on ground (duh). Herbs should not be pickable by anyone. Some should require gloves to take. If your herb skill should not be high enough your character should take damage, even poison. Some herbs should require knife to cut, depending on size.
I've thought about a list of herbs:

Requires to gather: Knife
Short description: These though roots make me feel faster.
Used for: Agility Poiton
Each Poiton should have its own effect and the more plants you add to it (up to 5), the higher the effect should be.
Here's a list of poitons I thought:
Healing Drink
Lvl 1 (one healing grass): heals 50hp
Lvl 2 (2 healing grass): heals 100 hp
Lvl 3: 150 hp
Lvl 4: 200 hp
Lvl 5: 250 Hp
Healing essence
Lvl 1: 300 hp
Lvl 2: 400 hp
etc.
lvl 5: 700 hp
Healing poiton:
Lvl 1: 800 hp
Lvl 2: 100 Hp
etc.
Lvl 5: 600 hp
Smoke bomb
Makes a smoke clould and blinds other oponents, making them hit and block less often
Lvl 1: 10 seconds duration
lvl 2: 20 seconds
lvl 3: 30 seconds
lvl 4: 40 seconds
Lvl 5: 60 seconds
Dakkru's Cure
Cures Drakku's curse effect.
Lvl 1: Cure Drakku's curse.
Alchemist's Bomb
Deals some amount of damage. Should be thrown at the enemy, like a grenade. Dexterity should afect damage dealt by these
Lvl 1: low damage
Lvl 2: mdium damage
Lvl 3: high damage
Lvl 4: very high damage
Lvl 5: extreme damage
Brewer's Light
Should light like a torch. Players should be able to wield it. After the duration it should turn into goo, wich should be useless (another freebie given to noobs)
level 1: 2 mins
Duration should increase by one minute per level.
Stamina poiton
A poiton wich should increase stamina.
Lvl 1: 20%
Lvl 2: 40%
etc.
Lvl 5: 100%
Strength Poiton
A poiton wich should increase strength by 15 for an hour
Dex Poiton
A poiton wich should increase dex by 15 for an hour.
Plants should dry after 24 hours of being picked/traded (if traded timer should reset) Dried plants should be used for making teas (after lvl 40 cooking) Teas should restore mana and mental stamina. The more plants in the tea, the more it should restore.
Dakkru's Eyes, the Popping Rose and Neon Mushroom should not be usable to make teas.
Calming Nettle added in a tea should poison the drinker but restore a bit of stamina.
Please no "two long to read" posts.
To Gms, I've seen the other alchemy sugestion topic. If I would have posted this there ppl would just ignore it and quote the post above.
