Note: Rare functionality is still not completely understood and is an exciting aspect of the game. Most information listed is only an observation of one or more players rather than confirmed by developers.

Rare lye adds +1 to the QL of the leather produced.

Notes

  • Quality of the lye is capped by the quality of the ash used and affected by your skill in Natural substances.
  • The minimum amount of water is 2.00 to start creating.
  • Lye creation uses up as much as possible of ash and water in the ratio of 0.1 kg ash to 1 kg water.
  • Examples of using combined ash bundles on a container full of water include: 6.4k ash and a cauldron for 64 kg lye, 1.2 kg ash and a bucket for 12 kg lye, o.2 kg ash and a jar for 2 kg lye.
  • Failing to create lye uses 0.2 kg of water.
  • If you try to drink it you get the message "Eww.. the lye tastes funny and won't quench your thirst at all!"
