In Hytale, alchemy sits in an early but important stage. While you can already build the Alchemist’s Workbench and brew some basic potions, detailed recipe lists are still limited. Here’s what’s fully confirmed and what you should realistically expect right now.

How to craft the Alchemist’s Workbench in Hytale

Before you can access alchemy, you must upgrade your base Workbench to Tier 2. Once Tier 2 is unlocked, the Alchemist’s Workbench appears as a craftable station.

Alchemist’s Workbench crafting requirements

  • 20× Any Stone
  • Gold Ingot
  • 10× Venom Sac
  • 10× Bone Fragments

Craft the Alchemist’s Workbench directly at the Tier 2 Workbench. Once placed, it permanently unlocks potion brewing at your base.

What the Alchemist’s Workbench is used for

The Alchemist’s Workbench is dedicated to potion brewing and alchemical crafting. While the interface is simple, it introduces a new crafting flow compared to standard benches.

Brewing process in Hytale

Interact with the Alchemist’s Workbench

Begin the brewing process by opening the Alchemist’s Workbench and accessing its crafting interface.

Insert the required ingredients

Place all necessary reagents, essences, and containers into the designated crafting slots before starting the brew.

Brew the potion

Once crafting begins, all inserted ingredients are consumed as part of the brewing process.

Collect the finished potion

After the brewing timer completes, the crafted potion becomes available for collection from the workbench.

Known potion categories in the current game

Although exact ingredient recipes are not fully published, potions are clearly divided into functional categories.

Confirmed potion types
  • Healing potions
  • Mana potions
  • Regeneration potions

These potions provide combat and survival benefits, such as restoring health or sustaining longer fights. However, aside from early examples like basic healing potions, most advanced recipes remain undocumented.

Current limitations of alchemy recipes

At this stage:

  • There is no official, complete recipe list for all potions
  • Many potion effects are known, but ingredient combinations are not
  • Community-shared recipes beyond basic potions are unverified or speculative

This means you should treat any advanced potion recipe claims cautiously unless they are directly observed in-game.
