    Regarding potions

    Why is their cd 4:30 min instead of 4:00 min to align with every second 2 min burst window?

    Because the game caters to casuls and not min-maxing raiders

    How is having 4:30 cd on pot catering to casuals. I am not sure if people use pots in normal content at all.

    Then it would have no cooldown.

    Potions in general just feel...weird.

    They're undeniably useful, but the sheer hassle involved in producing them in the large quantities needed for prolonged periods of raiding feels at odds with the amount of time investment generally needed from crafting.

    Take a couple hours one day to mass farm the mats and craft. Can easily make 100+ in like 30-45m with an optimized macro. (I bulk sell raid pots)

    Also would recommend not burning your pots till your group has a clean run to enrage. You're basically wasting your own supply at that point using them while learning the fight or while wipes are still frequent.
