Are people overlooking potions?

[sheepysheepy]

perhaps if you use it when you summon your pet as Smn/Sch (so they have the stat bonus, I've heard it's stat snapshot like DoTs),

anyone tested a fairie embrace with this? i doubt it somehow but would be amazing

Would be awesome if someone showed some numbers to back up the claims made for potions. Maybe a WP run without potions vs with potions, how many potion were used and the price of these potions.

I've tested it, nothing. Pretty bummed out about that, would have been an interesting mechanic for Scholar/Summoner to use, kind of find the Mega-Mind potions to be a bit lacking now...

Does anyone else wish HQ had a longer duration instead of a slightly higher (and easier to reach) stats boost?

No one uses pots cuz it rarely makes a difference and u have to constantly replenish them. The only scenario you would use them is if you're in a free company and you all decided to use them, cuz no one is gonna waste their gil on a pug.

Potions are for welps

I tested summoning pet while having a mega int pot on, no change in pet dmg at all.

I hope people suddenly decide potions are worth it -- maybe then I won't regret getting ALC to 50 as much!

They need to make Pudding Flesh easier to get, Mega-Potions of Vitality were 20k each last time I checked the Wards, whereas a Mega-Potion of Mind was around 1k.

This, so much...

I really don't get why the Puddings in Toto-Rak apparently drop them (never seen personally, I used Levequests to farm when I was naive enough...) but the mid-Boss in Wanderer's Palace doesn't... Or maybe he does and once again I've just never seen it, either way they need to increase the drop rate...

I would not consider potions a worthwhile investment for WP runs because of their high cost and long cooldown. It's best to use them strategically on strict dps checks in 8-man encounters.
