Dragon Age: Origins Crafting Guide - Master Herbalism Potions and Recipes
Herbalism Skill
The Master Herbalism skill is the fourth tier in the Herbalism skill tree in Dragon Age: Origins. It requires that you have the three previous levels of Herbalism and your character be a minimum of 10th level, so it does take some commitment on your part. If you’re willing to seek out all the ingredients, you can create some really useful potions and elixirs with this skill. Most of the things you can make are not what you’ll find on the bodies of the monsters you kill, and they cost a lot of coin to buy from a vendor. In the section below, you will find a list of everything you can make with Master Herbalism, as well as the items you need to complete each recipe.
