Reanimation Liquid needs 2 red, 1 green and 4 blue runes. One three-slot route is Copper Nugget plus two Night Flowers: the nugget supplies 2 red and 1 green, while the flowers supply 2 blue each.
Use the correct Laboratory
That example uses three ingredient slots, so it needs Laboratory II. Laboratory I’s two slots cannot hold it even though the arithmetic is correct. Study each ingredient to reveal its rune values before mixing.
Two Night Flowers can be replaced by two other known 2-blue ingredients, such as Minced Meat, when the exact total stays unchanged. Do not substitute a reagent that also contributes red or green without recalculating the whole mixture.
The alchemy solver searches the recorded ingredients under the chosen two- or three-slot limit. Exclude materials you want to preserve; it matches runes rather than assuming all gathering routes have equal cost.
Keep the preparation stages separate
Brewing liquid does not resurrect a body on its own. The Resurrection Table needs a corpse with all six organs, no Surgeon’s Error, and a collar in the Keeper’s inventory that supports its red-skull count. The liquid needs to be available in Resurrection Lab storage.
Prepare the body at the table, then activate the Resurrection Device on Envy Day. The weekly activation is separate from gathering the liquid, which makes it useful to complete the reagent and corpse checks before that day arrives.
Avoid spending the wrong scarce material
Organs can have other uses: the first study reward, a needed transplant or later organ treatment. A rune-equivalent non-organ route can preserve those options, even if the organ is already in inventory.
Minced Meat has a discovery chain: taste Flesh to reveal the cooked-meat technology, then cook Baked Meat in the Oven to reveal the follow-up meat-processing technology. Its presence in the solver does not grant those discoveries. For the simple Night Flower route, plan the time-sensitive gathering trip or compare another recorded blue reagent.
Zombie preparation covers the collar and table interaction; surgery covers the errors that can disqualify an otherwise well-supplied body.
