Is it possible if you could change the way all forms of potions/ether/drops works please.

Long before we even made it to level 75, let alone 99, these items have lost its usefulness. I mean, who would bother to buy a potion that only cures 50 HP or 150 HP? These items are in so much need to be updated now that HP bars, and MP bars for that matter, can go over the 1k mark easy.

Instead of giving them a Fix value, why not give them a percentage. Potion would cure 20% of the player's Max HP, Potion +1 40% of player's Max HP, etc. Same thing with Ethers. In short, make them work pretty much the way Elixirs work but on HP only or MP only bases.

Don't forget to mention Medicated status... Hell, so much easier to spam Temp Meds in Abyssea or Voidwatch, but when you're doing something else, you're very limited on how you can use meds.

PS Stack Echo Drops, Silent Oil, Prism Powder and other such meds to 99.

They could also make them based on stats much like certain bolts are...

Of course, if they did that, that's probably the closest we'll ever see to a Chemist class in this game (or maybe being able to use certain potions on party members).

Alternatively make them bag-able into bags that stack to 99. They should do the same with Pet Food Biscuits and Jugs (but not make them AHable if that's the concern).

Yes adjust their potency and make them stack to 99. Would make alchemy useful again.
