Max Potion/Ether Added!

[Ashkendor]

And to be fair, "Max Potions/Ethers" in other FF games DO restore all.

That was kinda my point. You can't really make any assumptions based on the name. The description indicates they won't restore all.

I honestly think a full restore item would be ridiculously overpowered the way this game is set up.

You can use the stats potions and it wont share a CD timer with the Heal pots.

Can you? *.* I musta overlooked that in the notes!

Really? Unless thats a change in the notes could have sworn Stat pots were shared with restorative. Good to know though.

Haven't gone through notes yet....hectic at work today. Not gonna be too greedy...just hoping for two things on the ethers:

Stackable. (Think about it...they could put the screws to us here.)

Enough MP to once again easily slip that extra flare in with full stacks at 60.

The 50 black mage rotation relied on an ether to get another Flare at max potency (you can still do a double Flare at max potency, but not a triple Flare.) Due to the amount of MP restored, even the highest level ether wasn't enough for a Flare cast at 60, though. A Max Ether will potentially put triple Flares back into play.

It should be noted that all existing HP and MP recovery potions have had their effects increased and recast timers decreased.

Potions are now twice as effective with 3/4ths to 2/3rds their former recast times.
Ethers are now ~50% more effective with a 30s shorter recast timers (X-Ethers have a 60s shorter timer)
Elixers follow the Potion's and Ether's effectiveness increases (x2 HP, x1.5 MP) and have lost a minute off their recasts.

They listed the boost to NQ ether caps, which were all ~50%. Assuming the HQ get the same boost, all of the old ethers/elixirs still won't give enough MP for a Flare (I think the minimum is 884 MP at 60). I'm guessing the new NQ should be enough to hit the min, and the HQ will definitely.
