Self-enchanting
for a constant effect item:

Recharging for most characters has a good chance of wasting a soul gem, as the enchant skill is the dominant term used for success. You would require enchant skill of over 65 with average stats to have a 100% success rate. The amount restored is a uniform random percentage of the soul gem, except if you have over a 100% success rate, in which case you will never get the full charge range out of a gem. The missing range increases as your skill does, but the lost charge is no more than 25% at the natural stat limit. Finally, note the strange luck term capping behaviour.

Comments
Bug in original game: Being more tired makes it easier to repair an item. The game should have multiplied by fatigueTerm instead of dividing by it.

Ingredients
Effects are not immediately apparent without alchemy skill. Ingredient effects are hidden, appearing as '?' unless the player has sufficient alchemy skill.

Potions can still be made with the hidden effects, and the resulting effects appear normally in the potion result window.

Comments
It is notable how effective a calcinator becomes when combined with a retort or alembic. One of the few mechanics unaffected by fatigue. Each code path is slightly different; the most common (effects with magnitude and duration) acts differently enough with only a calcinator that it may be consider a bug. GMSTs fPotionMinUsefulDuration, fPotionT4BaseStrengthMult, fPotionT4EquipStrengthMult are unused.
