Why did I fail in using this restoration potion glitch?

The glitch is not patched.

Basically I tried again. This time I have ingredients for fortify enchanting too.

What happens is I tried to drink restoration and go ahead try to create fortify enchanting.

Turns out the number that shows up is bad.

I reload again this time I drink restoration and I remove my fortify alchemy gear and put it back on.

This time it works and now I have 22k% alchemy gears.

It seems that if I do not take off fortify alchemy gears and drink fortify restoration that fortify restoration will improve fortify restoration potions. That number is the one showing up on UI.

I forget where. Maybe in inventory and may be in active effect. They differs.

The way to do this is to drink restoration and wear alchemy gear. Whether you unequip fortify alchemy gear before or after you drink restoration potion doesn't seem to matter. At least not to my knowledge.

Today is the 22th october 2018 and i can confirm the echanting/restoration glitch is still working. I am playing on the nintendo switch and the skyrim-switch-edition which contains all 3 dlcs.(but i also know from a friend it is still possible on pc)

If some people still not get this glitch to work here are some valuable reminders that helped me a lot:

Make sure to savety save before starting the whole glitch-process!!!

* Make sure you have 4 gear-parts equipped all enchanted with "Created potions are x% more powerfull"(helm, ring, necklace, gauntlets, etc)

* Also make sure your alchemy skill tree has at least "alchemist on 2/5", "Physician checked" and "Benefactor checked" (!!! very important !!!) without that skilling, it will take very long or impossible-long to stack enough %boosts together within 60sec.

* To start correctly, always only create one restoration potion, go out of alchemy table, drink it, unequip and requip gear. and repeat making potion. Important to keep in mind: you will need to do it at least 10 times or more depending on your alchemy skill and starting gear %-bonus. Also you need to do it quickly because potions only last 60 sec and that is where stress comes into play.

You definitely will experience a fall back of % displayed on your potions over time. That is because after 60sec when you continue making stronger potions your very first potion effects will run out. Skyrim calculates this %boost as a stack of multiplications. Thats why even the smallest bonus in the beginning can have a big negative effect when running out.

SO JUST KEEP MAKING POTIONS AND DRINKING POTIONS FAST!!! depending on how fast you can manage through inventory you should get a big % boost after your 20th potion or something. Don't take your time too much scrolling through alchemy table or inventory. The timer is running in the back most of the time.

* Keep in mind the very checkpoint in this procedure is not enchanting gear with fortify alchemy but in creating very strong restoration potions which will have very high %values still after the 60sec mark run out.

Last note: try making restoration potions only with about ~100% - ~1000% and make more of them with the same value. Store them in your house and maybe duplicate them if you want so you don't have to stress yourself with the 60sec limitation again. When you have f.e. 20 of the 100%-restoration-potions you can try drinking 2-4 then create 1-3 enchanting potions, drink them and enchant some gear. If the effect is to strong or low rearrange the number of restoration potions.

*Last note very important. making to strong potions will make the %number to flip into negativ because of how skyrim handles high values. If you gonna make a gamesave with items with negativ values the game will very likely crash. Make sure to savety save before starting the whole glitch-process!!!

Hope that was helpfull.
