Alchemy (The Sims 4)

Alchemy returns in The Sims 4: Realm of Magic as one of the four magic styles spellcasters can specialize in, where they can learn 16 potions. Crafted potions can be sold directly from a Sim's inventory, on sales tables (included in City Living, Jungle Adventure and Eco Lifestyle), in retail businesses (from Get to Work), or on Plopsy (from Nifty Knitting Stuff).
Spellcasters can work alone or in groups of up to three spellcasters. Unlike previous games, brewing potions run the risk of cursing Sims. Sims also have a chance of being cursed from drinking a Potion of Questionable Contents. Curses last indefinitely until cured, and Sims can receive up to three curses at a time.
==Perks==
There is a branch of five alchemy-related perks that spellcasters can choose from as they level up in rank. The following perks are listed from lowest-rank to highest-rank:
Icon	Name 	Description 	RankSpellcaster Leveling
 	Blender Arm 	Potion crafting speed significantly increased. 	Neophyte
 	Frugal Combination 	Chance on potion creation that all of the required ingredients will not be used. 	Acolyte
 	A Little Extra Chemistry	Potions crafted by the Sim are surprisingly tasty and have an additional small benefit triggered when the potion is consumed. 	Adept
 	Mix Master 	Extra servings will be in the cauldron each time a potion is successfully created. 	Master
 	Potent Potables 	Effects on all potions are increased and/or last significantly longer. Sim can now Hex their Potions to have them always fail.	Virtuoso
==Ingredients==
Alchemy ingredients can be collected around worlds while gardening, fishing, hunting for frogs and digging for treasure; they can be purchased from a market stall in The Magic Realm; or they can be won in magic duels. If the player owns Cats & Dogs, and their Sim has bound a pet as a familiar, the pet can also be sent off to forage for ingredients.
