All alchemy recipes must be made in a cauldron. Standard cauldrons, "a black iron cauldron" can be purchased for 10,000 silvers in any of the guilds' alchemy shops. The shops are only available to active members of the guild. These cauldrons weigh five pounds.

The cauldron must be placed on the ground in order to be used. In order to minimize loss, some alchemists type DRAG CAULDRON as soon as they drop it. That way, if they forget to pick it up and wander off, it's dragged along with them. Hopefully then either the messaging is noticed, or the RT from dragging is noticed, and the cauldron is recovered.

Acceptable nouns for altered cauldrons in the past have included vat. Pot, kettle, and boiler have also been used but deemed inappropriate.

There are several Animated cauldrons that were sold at the Ebon Gate 2009 auction. These are sentient and respond to different situations, including the alchemy process.

Training Cauldrons

Each guild has training cauldrons. All ALCHEMY verbs used in the training cauldrons will have a chance of failure.

Tasks requiring the use of these verbs also require that the entire recipe be completed. You not only have to use BOIL, you have to use it in recipe to produce a product.

A task that does not call for the training cauldrons, but are accidentally completed in a training cauldron, will still not count. If you're wondering where your rep is, check your task closer.
