Editing Comprehensive guide to potion making (section)

=== Money talk ===
As with almost everything in Eternal Lands you can consider everything except for wine, ale, mead and some of the books to be free in making potions. It is obvious however that obtaining some tools and ingredients takes time away from actually making potions. For some players and some items such as mortars and pestles, vials or meat this may provide a welcome opportunity for experience in other skills, for other players this might not be the case. What it comes down to is that depending on your playing style or philosophy you will find some potions more or less desirable to make, the most prominent being the ones requiring animal items and from those most likely feasting potions. From a serious potion maker's perspective, acquiring animal items by actually hunting for them takes a lot (too much) time away from making potions.

==== Schools ====
If you don't mind throwing your money to the wind for experience, schools provide a nice way of doing it and if you harvest everything on your own, you might not even "lose" much besides harvesting time and the vial and food cost. Once you can make True sight potions sufficiently well, you can even afford it but at that point the very same True sight potion will provide experience and income...
