Buff up the potions or implement a new one

Sad part about this would be that they become spammable, people rely on it too much, the price will steeply rising, and then the one who has more money will be tankier.. Name it "pay to win" -> gil buyer.. I'd say the cooldown is fine the way they are, about 1-2mins, but the potency really needs to give descent healing at later stage, not only in low level..

I remember that whenever i play ff games i'd always bring stacks of potions that i could use to spam etc.
Technically in any game lol
But this was the 1st time potions felt so underwhelming lol.

Also wouldn't that be a good thing if prices went up cuz potions are easy to make and hq?
I mean potions aren't 4 star mastercrafts right?

The X-potions are 3 star mastercrafts. The idea is to not build the game around a dependence of potions. If they were TOO good then you would be gimping yourself for not bringing any with you. It is what it is really.

X-potions of X stat are 2 star not 3. They are very easy to hq even with the level 55 tool.

Like i said, if it's spamable, people will depend on it too much, it's fine if the price is steeply increasing, the one that is not fine is that people will die if not "not taking their potions" soon.. Coatl already explained it a bit..
X-potions (hp or stat) are 2 star alchemist craft, i've played since a tad before 2.2 and the outgoing patch doesnt even cover pots, the dev tends to give more shinny, big, weird stuff in alchemist craft log instead..

I use X-Potions when doing fates or leves while levelling an Alt class, helps to keep me alive and get stuff done faster, I use X-Ethers in dungeons sometimes, mainly when going for a triple flare or if I am strained for MP in long or healing intensive fights, I do think they should buff or add stronger ones, since I have so many of them yet have very little opportunity to use them.

[Vespar]

I dont use potions that much thanks to the extremely long recast times on them. In the beginning levels I used Ethers more frequently, but again, with the current recast time on them I find potions/ethers to be less than useful and I just have a bunch of them stagnating on my character that I probably wont ever use.

[StrejdaTom]

I use mega-dex pots in coil and they are great but I agree that MP HP pots definitely need a buff.

If I had to pick this or potion spam - This D:

[lvlagmarink]

yup. and I gave up on it because
1) There are TWO tanks who should be picking up adds and
2) Healers don't heal melee DPS if other healers/tanks are getting hit

Not sure how a 600 hp potion heal will really make a difference. thats 1 hit you mitigated

Making things like these more possible {:v)



I'm sorry if the example aint that related, but the idea is I want X-potions or a new kind of potions that can heal more than 650.. I have couple more screenies that potions can almost save the party like wiping in ifrit ex, levi ex, and many more in 1% hp..
I just dont like the idea "if people who is doing shit or can't dodge better, it's a wipe anyway"..
