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!"
