Simple question and simple poll.

My vote goes to "Hell No"

they are useless


Exactly the reason of post.

1. It doesn't matter currently. Yet, there is potential to use them for 71-101 runs and Newcomers.
2. Basically non existent
3. It doesn't matter to some people

Well with the current system how they work i would say no.
There is no point reallly

What I mean is that they have no use since ppl dont farm high lvls.

There is no need to buy or use them at this current state.

I don't like the idea of potions for this game. The other ways to increase character strength are more fun. Like how Paul added more objectives, or the prof system in general. Less buying power, more earning power.

I'd prefer to leave potions as is for the few people that care about them. Same goes for totems.

Won't make much difference currently, except for those that like to do the high level runs.


Now, this could be different if this could drop:


Magical cracked potion
Use Item to Receive Effect

+1000 Forum Gold



With the rarity of potions as it is, this would be a nice drop. Would keep my vault fed for a while. :lol:

A vault potion, now that I can get behind.

+25 Vault Slots


Yep, I'd be down with that too, have a potion give me a vault for a month.

Nulled vote. I rather like stat pots. The drop rate could be higher, but 50% is crazy. You'd be lucky to get 10-15% increase.
The max life and mana pots need a buff (at least the minimum per tier does).

Once again, this is relevent to the topic... "It Doesn't Make A Difference", especially for you and others that think the same way.

There are benefits for finding +1 Vita / Intelligence Potions.

Mage is a great example, the added vita helps by letting you put more points into Intelligence at earlier levels than before.

As for Strength / Dexterity, I would say that 5 potions actually make a difference [from previous tests, around 5 stat points = 1-2 min / 2-3 max BASE damage for the weapon being used]
Basically for 3 stats, you increase your weapons minimum base damage by 1-2, and by adding another 2 stat points, your weapons maximum base damage increase by 2-3... Enhanced Effect then contributes to the final damage. Note: the test research is incomplete, but, it does still seems to work currently.

Just thinking that I have only SEEN a total of 4 potions since I started playing... 5+ years... now that is a long time.
Mind you... 10-15% would still be better than now, and yes, the life / mana pots do need more.
