Oblivion Remastered has a fair amount of potions to brew, and some of them have amazing in-game effects.
The Remastered edition features the same recipes as the original. Crafting potions works the same way as it used to. Knowing the recipes will help you to prepare all the exact ones you need, and also remain aware of the ingredients.
Disclaimer: There’s no easy way of knowing which recipes Bethesda might have changed. If there are changes found in the testing phase, we will update this table.

How to make potions in Oblivion Remastered?
The process of creating potions remains the same, and you’ll have to play a fair bit before you can get the ability. You can start making potions after getting access to the Novice Mortar and Pestle, but ideally, you’ll want to go for the full set.

- Mortar and Pestle
- Calcinator
- Retort
- Alembic
Obtaining the Mortar and Pestle is easy, as it’s provided to you during the tutorial. The remaining items can be found in the town of Chorrol, where you’ll have to visit the local Mage’s Guild.
Open your inventory after obtaining all the tools, and go to the Alchemy tab. This tab will be available as soon as you get the Novice Mortar and Pestle. You can now select and craft a potion as long as you have the required ingredients.
