I am still enjoying it quite a bit thank you so much! It is hard to navigate at first another friend of mind is struggling a bit more I think lol. I'm still struggling to find out where to do alchemy? and if there are other creation things. I know where the bakery is that I can learn to bake at...

In Veta Lake there's Fantine's bakery- I am still working on finishing off this achievement myself. If you go into ShadowGlen, then Underground, then into the commerce district, there is the Alchemist but it's only functioning if you're a zombie which was a plot from like 2012 or something. I have no access to this.

There's a Decanter of Indestructibility which is like choosing a random assortment of items to make an item but it feels more like chance. Regardless I do it a few times a day because for 500sP you always get an item worth more than that.

Hope that helps a bit

When Survival rolls around again, sometime in the last half of February '24, you'll want to sign up for the Voluntary Infection Program (There will be a huge news post) to become a zombie.
Groups like "No Victim Left Behind" will have biting forum threads to help you get the strains you like. You can save the zombie "skin" in your wardrobe, to put on whenever you want to go to the alchemist.

Oh! thanks so much! does that mean theres no way to get alchemy without being a zombie?

Yeah. If you want to make things yourself, I'm afraid so. Zosi is a bit stubborn that way. When you try to go to the Alchove without a zombie skin on you'll see: Oh No! YOU GO NOW. ZOMBIES ONLY ALLOWED.

Survival's only 2 and a half months or so away, but if you need something made before then, there are lots of friendly zombie folk who are happy to help out.

I actually have, thank you so much! It was a bit much and I have had to look some stuff up a couple times but i love it!
