Currently at max of 2 per attempt.
Should probably be 5 as all alchemy (which involves similar mechanics with the batch of liquid and flasks) is limited at 5 (excluding enchantments and other non-potion alchemy stuff.)
I don't think the speed of holy water production is a big balancing factor as you can buy light and moderate potions at temples, and anything above that requires bodak teeth to make, and at that point they're the constricting/balancing factor. Plus it makes IC sense to be able to do 5 at once.

Alchemy's limit of 5 pertains to essences, oils and things like Alchemist's Fire, but certainly not all final products. Potions that rely on essences (cure, heal, bull's strength, etc) are limited to 3 and things like silver/titanium dips and visual effects are limited to 1.
I guess the question here is whether holy water constitutes a final product or if it's merely an intermediate for other products.
Nevertheless, we'll review.

oh right, potions are 3. So, I suppose holy waters should be at least changed to 3. I suppose it could technically be a finished product, though the vast majority of its uses are as ingredients in the plethora of other recipes it's used in.

The production of holy water is already restricted by how many spells you can memorise in a day so there is already a limit to how fast you can produce them. I have quite a bit of experience on creating these in batches of two and the process is quite painful considering the long animation and large quantities of holy waters usually required. I personally woudln't see anything wrong with upping the limit to 5. Switching it to three wouldn't help much.

Upon review, Holy Water set to a max of 5 per attempt.
Thanks all for your comments.
