Pills
Need a quick stat boost? A little edge to solo that cash? Pills may be your answer. You want drugs. Blue ones, red ones, stims, poppers, tablets, capsules, caplets, caps, lozenge, pastille, all the varieties you could ever want. Each pill boosts a stat; ask for them by their generic names, str, wis, etc...
Pills weigh almost nothing, last a long time, and can be stored in handy pill containers purchasable at the Alchemist guild. Pills are manufactured by alchemists using the mix drug skill. Not all alchemists hold to drug manufacturing however so seek out the shady ones in the backstreets of Esiris.
A word of warning though, as with their real world analogues you might becomes dependent. But perhaps death cures that and you die all the time, right? If not a reinc surely will.
The stat and amount of boost given are easy to tell by seeing how the pill looks in your inventory. Strength pills are red, Dexterity pills are magenta, Constitution pills are yellow, Wisdom pills are cyan, Intelligence pills are blue, and Charisma pills are green. Each pill will also have a nickname as part of it's description, unfortunately you cannot handle the pills by this nickname, but they do show how much boost you get.
Alchemists can learn some more secrets to drug making from the Feldspar Foundation. The pills made from alchemists who have learned this technique are considered 'enhanced' and will have that added to their description, similar to the following:
