Hickory: 1. I don't understand a word of what you said.
2. It is not ridiculous. It is to simulate Geralt 'meditating' (as in Witcher 1) and making or refilling his potions and bombs, which is why you need spirits and such to make it happen.
1. Probably it's because of my poor english, sorry for that. Though somehow you managed to answer me for two times, thank you :)
2. I still think It's ridiculous even for the next reason - when you craft the bombs of some type
for the first time, you don't need any spirits and such, right? You just get the receipt, gather all necessary materials, push the button - and you make the bombs in no time. But when you then need to replenish your bombs - you can't do it without spirits. How's that? So either crafting a bomb should be completely separate process from meditating (that would be right and natural), or there should be some visual waiting line of bombs and potions planned to be crafted during meditation - only then sticking those two processes together will have some sense and clear connection. Not being able to craft more than 3 bombs of certain type is still an odd decision without sensible explanation. Why can I craft 1500 of similar arrows, but not 5 or 10 or 15 of similar bombs?
